Athletic Competition A Draw!

The Generals of Wade Hampton are always up for a challenge, and Blue Ridge was very accommodating. After much banter back-and-forth, the golfing challenge commenced at the historic Goofy Golf course in Fort Walton beach. This landmark has been around for 50 years, and it still provides a real test. Sadly, Blue Ridge claimed the victory, and to make matters worse, Colonel Pittman's 15-year unbeaten record was shattered by Lt Col David Rogers as he sank the putt on the last hole to win by a shot. Kevin Hinnant and Graves Newell were launching shots off the course, but we did see Abby Harrison score an "ace". In the end, we went down by about 30 strokes. BUT, the Generals did not give up and responded with a four touchdown to one victory in beach football. Andrew Hooper, Chris Savage, Lawrence McDowell, and others kept our pride in tact. Rumors of a rematch in both sports are circulating - same time, same place next year.
