DONALDSON WINS STATE CHAMPIONSHIP !!!
Senior Ryan Donaldson is now a District 2A State Champion, capping off four years of SHS golf with an amazing final round at Howie-In-The Hills in Lake County Florida. The University of Oklahoma signee, shot a final round 67 to go along with a first round 73 for a 140 two day total. Her back 9 consisted of 5 birdies, and 4 pars, with a final birdie in hole 18 to finish her high school career.
She was victorious by only a one shot margin, with her superb final round total.
She has played in the State event each year, and her goal was to try to get a win on this last one. Well Ryan, you reached this goal, and as we have said a few times in the last four years, the sky is your limit. We wish you all the best next year when you head off to Oklahoma and bring your talents to them. What a fantastic way to finish off your high school golfing career.
On the boys side of the event, the team had a great two days finishing in 11th place overall. Junior Dawson Wooley was low man for Suwannee finishing in 17th place with a 153. Senior Carter Cannon was next at 154, finishing a strong 22nd. Next was Junior Ty Hurst with a 167, followed by Senior William Slaughter at 170, and Senior Brett Bozeman with a 176. Dawson and Ty return next year, and SHS will reload with some very reliable players that have been working very hard.
Congratulations to State Champion Ryan, and to the boys team that competed for an amazing third year in row at this level.
