The Floyd County Buffaloes repeated as Group A Golf champs and set an all classification VHSL record for lowest number of total strokes in a state championship.

The Buffaloes followed up their 293 from round one at Botetourt Country Club with a 290, six-over-par for a two day total of 583 which is one stroke better than 2006 Group AAA champ Frank W. Cox High School.

Jessica Hollandsworth birdied the 18th hole for the all time record as she finished off her high school career with her second individual state championship as she shot a final round 70 for a two day total of 4-under-par 138. Michael Wade had the low round of the day as he carded a 68 for a two round total of 145 which was good for second place individually. 

Just to illustrate the dominance the Buffs had over the field, five Floyd County golfers finished in the top 11 overall as they cruised to a 56 shot margin of victory over team runner-up Castlewood. Matt Poff finished in 6th and Jacob Summers and Brian Cox tied for 11th overall.

The Radford Bobcats shot a second day 343 for a two round total of 667 which gave them a seventh place finish overall in the team competition. Chris Wojtera led the Bobcats with a 162 over the two day tournament.

Giles' Tanner Carbaugh shot a second round 78 and finished with a 160 in his first state tournament. Glenvar's Scott Obenshain shot a 158 after a second round 82.

The highlights of the championship included an extraordinary two holes-in-one by two Appomattox golfers. Josh Bradshaw aced the 5th hole and Patrick Franklin aced the 10th hole just hours apart.
