GOLF Weaver has tough round INDIANAPOLIS MacKenzie Weaver had a tough round at the girls state golf tournament but did salvage the day with an eagle - the only one recorded by any golfer on the day. Weaver holed a 125 foot shot from the rough on the par four second hole using a nine iron. She ended with a 176 which was good enough for 56th place in the 100-golfer field. Stillson in top 10 LEE HIGHWAY, Term. North Wood's Cybil Stillson competed in Tennessee in the "Drive, Chip, and Putt" competition hosted by the The Masters Tournament, the USGA and PGA. She competed at the Honors Course in Lee Highway, Term, and shot an 85 (18 drive, 22 chip, 45 putt), good enough to finish sixth in her regional. Only the winner advances to Augusta National. Stillson is a member of the class of 2022 at North Wood High School.
