Golfers from Tupper Lake, Malone and Norwood-Norfolk
advance through the fairway during the Sectionals.
The Potsdam Sandstoners repeated as Section X Division I
Champions for the sixth consecutive years. Potsdam
Coach Steve Kmack goes out as a champion coach in both
golf and basketball in the same season. But the
title is bittersweet as the golf program has already been cut
from next year's Potsdam Central School budget.
