Scott Cortner made it a memorable Senior Day for Caldwell County’s golf team.
Cortner is Caldwell’s only senior golfer. He and his family were recognized prior to Monday’s match at Princeton Golf Club.
Cortner then went out and fired an even-par round of 36 to claim medalist honors by three shots in the match against Heritage Christian Academy and Webster County.
HCA’s Cruz Egbert was runner-up with a 39.
Caldwell and Webster each finished with team scores of 185 counting the best four individual scores.
However, Webster took the match because its fifth scorer was better than Caldwell’s.
Besides Cortner’s 36, the Tigers got a 44 from Presten Alfred, 51 from Max Hooks, 54 from Brody Kirk, 58 from Cohen Schott, 60 from Braydon Schott and 63 from Lukas Harper.
