WHS’ Knisley First Team, All-District

0

Washington High School senior, Max Knisley, has been named First Team, All-District in golf for 2015.

Knisley had a stellar senior season, earning medalist honors more often than any other golfer in the South Central Ohio League.

Knisley won the SCOL individual golf title in 2015 with a score of 72 at the Chillicothe Country Club.

The Blue Lions qualified to the District tournament, placing fourth at the Sectional.

Knisley led Washington in that tournament with a score of 80.

At the District, Knisley performed well under pressure, winning a thrilling three-hole play-off to qualify to the State tournament.

Knisley shot a two-day score of 170 at the State, a cold, blustery affair at the challenging NorthStar Golf Club in Sunbury. Knisley finished in a tie for 34th place at State out of 72 competitors in Division II.
