On Thursday, Oct. 20, the Aucilla Christian Academy (ACA) varsity golf team honored senior golf athlete Tyler Burton. “We normally honor our golfers at the football field but decided to have it here this time,” explained Principal Richard Finlayson. It was a perfect day to celebrate a senior at the Jefferson County Country Club where the Warriors practice golf and play tournaments.
Burton is one of four students who played on last year’s team; helping bring attention to the sport at the school again. Aucilla had not had a golf team in several years, until last year. It is hoped that more and more students will develop an interest in the game.
The golf team is scheduled to play in the Class 1A District Two district tournament at Southwood Golf Club in Tallahassee.
