steps you take for the week - not just at the College. On Friday
afternoon an email will be sent to let everyone know how many total
steps we took as a group. Once we complete the entire trip -3,801,710
steps - the person
who walked the
most steps
will win a
prize.

Golf
Teams Shine at Nationals -
Three Golfers Named All-American
The e-mail
messages were flying furiously, embellished with many exclamation
points, as Coach Mike Cook and Assistant Coach Nicole
Wildes tracked the action of their all-freshmen
teams for the College and local media during the national
NJCAA golf tournaments last week.
Christian
Liggin finished 14th with a 321 total, earning All-American
status by placing in the top 15 at the women's nationals. Chase
Miller finished 10th in the men's individual competition with a 290
total and Shiloh Snow garnered honorable mention with a 293 total.
Wildes traveled
to Daytona Beach with Shea Able, Jaclyn Harten, Liggin and Colbi Tyre
for the women's competition May 17-19. The women played from 6,130
yards on the LPGA International Golf Course. Coastal Georgia finished
6th in a field of 18 teams.
Cook and team
members Dylan Freeman, Miller, Garrett Newman, Snow, and Hunter
Stuckey were in Scottsboro, Alabama, May 17-20 for the NJCAA D II
National Men's Championship. Nineteen teams played the par 72,
7160-yard Goose Pond Colony Golf Course. Coastal Georgia wrapped up
fourth place after Miller made a hole-in-one on the last day of the
tournament. Miller also won the NJCAA long driving contest May 17
with a 333-yard drive.
