She was followed by Easton Perkins with a 44, Parker Lockwood with a 47, Jevon Westfall with a 50, Jaden Westfall with a 55 and Drahden Rice with a 58.
“Egress had a nice day,” stated Buckhannon-Upshur head coach Jason Westfall. “She has the ability she just needs the experience.”
At the Pines Country Club, the Bucs placed fourth out of four teams with a 373.
Morgantown won the event with a 311 while University was second with a 333 and Keyser was third with a 341.

“Perkins is working his way into form,” stated Westfall. “His scores keep dropping.”
The action left the Bucs with a 9-23 record overall and 5-11 in the Big 10 Conference.
“Our record doesn’t reflect the growth within our team,” concluded Westfall.
