NCHSAA State 4-A Boy’s Golf Championships: 1st Day

PINECREST’S BAE LEADS PACK BY TWO SHOTS; MYERS PARK SITS ATOP TEAM STANDINGS IN NCHSAA 4-A MEN’S GOLF

PINEHURST— Eric Bae of Southern Pines Pinecrest had the only sub-par round of the day on Monday to take the individual lead in the 79th annual North Carolina High School Athletic Association state 4-A men’s golf championships at Pinehurst Country Club number two.

Bae fired a two-under par 70 to take a two-shot lead over Doc Redman of Raleigh Leesville Road. Raleigh Broughton’s Stephen Saleeby, who was tied for fourth in last year’s 4-A championships, and Bryce Hendrix of Greenville D.H. Conley were three shots off the pace.

The course was laid out at 6,825 yards for Monday’s action.

Bae’s sub-par round helped put Pinecrest in second place, just two shots behind first-day team leader Charlotte Myers Park, which recorded an even 300. Defending champion Raleigh Broughton is in third at 304.

The best four of five individual scores count toward the team total.

Prior to 1986, all NCHSAA schools competed for a single title in an open tournament. Play went to three classifications in 1986 and then to four classes beginning with the 1998 tournaments.

A total of 72 golfers began play in the two-day tournament. Action is scheduled to resume at eight o’clock on Tuesday morning with play moving to Pinehurst number four, which will play at par 72 and 6,715 yards.
