Golfers beat ACHS

DECATUR — Griffin Mann bogeyed two holes. He made birdie on the last one to help make up for it.

Mann shot a 1-over-par 34 Thursday, helping the Jay County High School boys golf team to a 157-159 victory over Adams Central at Cross Creek Golf Course.

It was a new season-low score for both Mann and the Patriots, who shot 158 on May 5.

Mann was even through his first three holes before going 1-over on the par-4 fourth hole and then bogeying the par-4 sixth. He made birdie on the ninth hole, the only par-5 of the round, edging Adams Central’s Keaton Bush for match medalist honors.

Simon Pryor shot a career-low 39 as Jay County’s second-best score, and Caleb DeRome was one stroke behind. Kyle Sanders completed the team total with his round of 44.

Gage Simms also competed, but his 51 did not factor into the overall score.
