RHS alum helps Calhoun golf to third-place finish
Calhoun Community College Lady Warhawks golfers – among them, Russellville High alum Morgan Moon – played in the Northeast Alabama Community College’s tournament March 22-23 at Goose Pond Colony Golf Course in Scottsboro – and came away with a third-place finish.
Calhoun finished in third place as a team out of five teams.
According to Coach Arin Eddy, the second day of play got cut short because of weather, so the girls played 18 holes on the first day and nine holes on the second day.
