TERRELL -- Tyler Denton and Klint Kilgore went one-two to lead the Greenville Lions to the team championship on Monday in the Terrell golf tournament at Oak Grove.

Denton carded a 78, while Kilgore shot a 79. Josh Hammack of Greenville fired an 84 to finish fourth among the medalists. Michael Williams shot a 91 and Payton Politoski added a 103.

Greenville coach Lee Leonard said Denton played well.

“It was a pretty tough day with the wind,” he said. “That’s a good round for him.”

The Lions carded a 332 to finish first among eight teams. Corsicana was second at 349.

Leonard praised the whole team.

“They’re all good kids,” he said. “They all try to work hard.”

The Lions will play again Friday and Saturday at Waterview in Rowlett in Greenville’s final test before the District 10-4A tournament, which is also at Waterview.
