Salem used balanced scoring to take the first of six River Ridge golf matches Tuesday afternoon at Hunting Hills Country Club. Led by Will Chisom’s 73, the Spartans (302) pulled away for a 14-shot win over second place Cave Spring (316). Hidden Valley took third at 321.
Salem’s four-player total included a 75 by Austin Smith and a pair of 77s by Andrew Butts and Alex Hart. Cave Spring’s Nick Brediger tied Chisom at 73 for co-medalist honors, while the Knight’s Drew Board joined Smith at 75 to tie for third.
