The regional high school golf team placed second at the division three state finals Tuesday afternoon, giving retiring Coach Doug Debettencourt a celebratory send-off after 20 years at the helm.
Finn Simpkins has helped lead the high school golf tournament to the state tournament again this year. The senior is also an elite skier and looking ahead to a potential collegiate golf career.
While most of the regional high school’s sports teams have been busy contending with league play and thinking ahead toward their final games of the season, the golf team was quietly securing a place in the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletics Association tournament. The team’s season ended Wednesday with a 38-18 match play victory over Cape Cod Regional Tech, but they locked up a tournament spot last Thursday, defeating Falmouth for their 10th win. The golfers finish the regular season with an 11-9 record.
