Battlefield High School’s golf team is seventh after the first day of the Group AAA state tournament at Independence Golf Club in Midlothian.
The Northwest Region champion Bobcats are just seven shots behind frontrunner Langley going into today’s second and final round. Battlefield totaled a score of 309. Langley leads with a score of 302 followed by James River (303), Westfield (304), Kellam (306), Cox (307), Loudoun Valley (308), Battlefield and Deep Run (313).
Andrew Lister, who won the Northwest Region individual title last week, led Battlefield with a 75. Teammate Jordan Pastor shot a 76 followed by Blake Forst (77), Justin Riley (81), John Williams (81) and Brendan Pastor (84).
“We’re going to have to shoot a team record like we did at regionals for us to jump over six teams and contend for a state championship,” Battlefield coach John Tillman said. “We’re going to have to shoot another team record 293 or better, but we have the players to do it.”
Forest Park’s Joe Buttgereit and Mitch O’Shell both shot a 75. Matt Sizemore from Douglas Freeman shot a 68 to take the first-round lead.
Cox’s Brinson Paolini was second with a 70 followed by Centreville’s Noori Hyun (71), James River’s Nick Austin (72), Chantilly’s Ji Soo Park (72), Yorktown’s Thomas Strandemo (72), Kellam’s Wade Wawner (73), Cox’s Chris Valianos (73), Langley’s Brigitte Baker (74) and Westfield’s Brian Keith (74).
