Lady Jets finish regular season 7-3 and 7-1 in district play
In their final regular season match, the Lady Jets defeated the McMinn County Lady Cherokees and the Walker Valley Lady Mustangs at Springbrook.
Team scores were 93, 108, and 101. The individual medalist was Kyleigh Barringer of Cleveland with a 44, while Stormi Henley shot a 45.
Cumberland County's other scorers of the day were Jessica Barnwell with a 48 and a 62 contributed by Liz Christ.
The girls finish the shortened season with a 7-3 record overall and a 7-1 record in district play.
"The match today was good preparation for the District Tournament to be held next week also at Springbrook. Our only district loss was to a strong but young Walker Valley team. As Stormi and Jessica wind down their senior season, I hope their experience can help them come through with strong finishes in tournament play," said Coach Kim Herring.
