Pine Lake Prep wins 2nd straight golf title; plus, tennis, volleyball schedule, scores
Elizabeth Rudisill’s comeback bid fell one stroke short Tuesday, as the Myers Park senior finished second in the N.C. High School Athletic Association’s 4A girls’ golf tournament at Pinehurst.
Meanwhile, Pine Lake Prep won its second consecutive 1A-2A team championship, and South Point edged first-day leader Lake Norman Charter for the 3A team title. A Charlotte-area golfer, Jackson Day’s Landry Hamm, won the individual 1A-2A championship.
Pinecrest was the 4A champion — for the third straight year and the seventh time overall.
Class 4A
Rudisill trailed defending individual champion Leah Edwards by four strokes after the first round Monday at Pinehurst No. 6, but she rallied Tuesday with a 3-under-par 67. It was the only subpar round of the tournament. Edwards fired another 70 and edged Rudisill 140-141.
Also finishing in the top 10 were Marvin Ridge’s Li Xinyan, who tied for eighth with a 147; and Charlotte Catholic’s Elizabeth Guthrie, 10th with a 148.
Pinecrest’s team score of 443 topped second-place Charlotte Catholic (451) and third-place Marvin Ridge (453).
Class 3A
Playing at Longleaf Golf and Family Club in Southern Pines, South Point edged Lake Norman Charter 510-511 for the team championship. Stuart Cramer was fifth.
South Point was led by Madison Pruden, who was fifth overall with a 77-81-156. Lake Norman Charter’s top golfer was Caitlyn Frisch, who tied for eighth with a 164.
The individual winner was Jacksonville’s Sanaa Carter, the 3A runner-up the past two years. She shot a 3-over-par 147.
Class 1A/2A
Pine Lake Prep dominated the field at Sapona Golf Club near Lexington, winning by 19 shots. Avery County was second, with West Lincoln fifth.
Sophomore Paisley Fred shot an 81-81-162, finishing fourth overall and leading Pine Lake Prep. Freshman Celina Ahn was 15th and sophomore Taylor Pike 37th for the Pride.
Landry Hamm’s individual victory was the first in NCHSAA school history for Jackson Day, which became a member of the state association this year. Day shot a 157, three strokes ahead of Avery County’s Sydney Kulhan.
Defending champion Malerie Lague of Christ the King took third place, four strokes behind Hamm.
