The Brentwood and Brentwood Academy boys golf teams didn’t disappoint, capturing consecutive TSSAA state golf championships during Friday’s rounds of the Class AA and Division II-AA tournaments respectively at the Sevierville Golf Club in Sevierville.
Page finished with its first girls Class AA state title while St. Mary’s earned the DII-AA girls championship by nine strokes over Baylor.
Brentwood Academy’s 1-2 punch to win DII-AA
With the departure of three-time state champion Blades Brown, who decided to leave Brentwood Academy this past summer to be homeschooled., there may have been some doubt if the Eagles could win a second consecutive title.
Carter Graham and Andrew Sciortino silenced any skeptics. Graham finished with the individual DII-AA state title after shooting a two-day total of 13-under 131. Sciortino finished state runner-up with an 11-under 133.
“It’s pretty satisfying and gratifying,” Brentwood Academy coach Buddy Alexander said after his team shot a 568, eight strokes better than state runner-up MUS. “We obviously had a great golfer in Blades Brown, but we knew we still had the talent to get it done.”
