Four players finished at one under par (-1) 71, earning Medalist honors including Karson Terry of Peterstown, the ageless wonder Chris Daniels of Beckley, Adam Sholes of Charleston and rising Greenbrier East junior Isaac Hutchison of Lewisburg.

Jack Williams played on the state championship Shady Spring golf team and also earned all-state honors last October.

Carson Proffitt won the Class AA individual title while at PikeView High School and is also the head golf coach for Concord University.

Indiana Eades started his golf career at Midland Trail High School and played for Proffitt at Concord.

Gavin Gregory attended Victory Baptist Academy and recently signed to play golf at WVU Tech in the fall. Malachi Flohr is a rising sophomore at Shady Spring High School.
