The McIntosh

Chiefs golf team did not win the state tournament held earlier this week

in Jekyll Island, but they did finish the season as region champs.

The team, made

up of Bryan Hume, Brandon Ring, Tony Decaro, David Werner, Jimmy Beebe

and Ricky Atkinson, went 9-1 during the regular season. At the Region

Championship, they scored a 298, finishing 11 strokes better than the

second place team.

"These

guys work well together," said Coach Phil Colston. "They encourage

each other to work harder and they help each other out."

Five of the

six members of the team are graduating this year. Atkinson is the team's

only junior. Hume has received a scholarship to attend Kennesaw State

University and play golf for them, while several other members will play

golf at their respective universities in the fall.
