Golf: Loudoun Valley, Missing No. 1 Player, Finishes 12th in Tough VSGA Invitational Field

Midlothian (Aug. 26, 2010) - The Loudoun Valley High School golf team, playing without its top individual athlete, finished 12th in a tough 23-team field at the 4th Annual Virginia State Golf Association Foundation High School Invitational two-day event that wrapped up Wednesday at Independence Golf Club.

Each team, many of them the top in their classifications from last year's VHSL state tournaments, fielded five players on the par 72 course which measured 6700 yards. The top four scores from each team counted toward the team total.

Loudoun Valley came in 12th after improving from 17th place (342) following the first day of competition. The Vikings had a score of 315 on the second day and were led by senior Tanner Welsh who posted scores of 80 and 73.

Also for Valley, Ian Hildebrand had 87 and 76, Scott Mumpower had 84 and 86, and Mac Kaseman carded 91 and 86. Mark Shayka posted an 80 on day two to contribute to the 315 team score. The Vikings were without No. 1 Scott Davidson who was competing in an AJGA event at Kingsmill in Williamsburg.

Deep Run High School won the tournament with a two-day score of 591 and Western Albemarle was second with 595.
