Huntington finishes first, Unioto finshes third
SVC GOLF race heats up as league reaches halfway point
CHILLICOTHE - Three straight Unioto wins to start the SVC golf season had things looking like a race for second-place; however, things took a major turn Wednesday night at Running Fox Golf Course when Huntington recorded its first league win of the season with Unioto slipping to third. Add it all up and what you got is a tight race as the league hits the halfway point.

Huntington's Craig Magill continues to be one of the league's most consistent players shooting a 39 while teammate Zach Thompson carded a 39 as well. Casey Gulliams shot 40 and Duane Irvin fired a 41 to complete the 159 winning total. Perhaps the biggest scores of the night (in terms of the SVC standings) come from Unioto's Cory Porter (48) and Piketon's Saxton Nance (52). These two scores gave Unioto the tie-breaker needed to secure third-place and the slim one-point advantage they keep in the overall standings after four matches. The Piketon duo of Jake Nutt and Jon Crace continues to carry the Redstreak load. Crace fired a 38 and Nutt a 40 as Piketon threatened the Shermans but fell short on the fifth score.

One of the most overlooked stories over the past week in SVC golf is the improvement of Southeastern. The Panthers posted four, bogey-golf-or-better scores Wednesday night to finish in fifth place - just four shots out of second place. Adena, Westfall, and Paint Valley rounded out the order dropping all of them in overall rank in terms of where they were entering the night.
