As district play approaches, the Hampton and Unaka high school golf teams took to the links one more time for some final tune-up rounds.
Both teams have had successful seasons thus far, with Hampton sitting at 7-2 and Unaka at 6-1. But as they prepare to face tough competition in the district tournament, both teams know the importance of fine-tuning their skills and strategies.
For Hampton, this means focusing on consistency and precision. Senior golfer John Smithson knows that every shot counts in the district tournament, and their recent round at the Elizabethton Golf Course helped the team work on their short game and accuracy off the tee.
Meanwhile, Unaka has been working on their mental game. Senior golfer Sarah Thompson says that staying calm and remaining positive will be crucial in the high-pressure district tournament. The team’s recent round at the Roan Valley Golf Course gave them a chance to practice their mental toughness and build confidence.
As the district tournament approaches, both teams are feeling confident and ready to compete. But no matter the outcome, they know that the experience and camaraderie gained from their time on the links this season will last a lifetime.
