A Dramatic conclusion today at the State tournament.  Colin Caporal turned 27 holes still tied for the lead, but not with one person it was now three.  Colin was playing with one of the person's he was tied with but had no idea what was happening in front of him.  Earlier in the day a player from Franklin County High School posted a 1 under par 71 to take the lead in the clubhouse.  The person Colin was tied with after the first round, posted a 76.  Colin did not want to know where he stood until he birdied the 34th hole to go ahead of the player in his group by 1 stroke, He turned to his coach and said yeah you can go ahead and tell me where I stand, Coach replied you are 1 back, go get it!  Colin made par on 17 and was needing a birdie or eagle to go ahead.  Colin just barely missed his approach shot from the fairway and just skimmed by his birdie attempt.  Colin knew that his chances of capturing the state title had slipped away and ended up tied for 3rd in his last high school event.  He was disappointed but proud of his accomplishments.  Earning All-State honors for the 2nd straight year.  Colin finished off a stellar high school career.  In his senior year alone he set the single round scoring mark for Patriot high school at 66, 6 under par.  He won the Charger Challenge High School Invitational, He won the Yorktown High School invitational and Runner-up in the Riverbend High School Invitational.  He was also a contributor to the team scoring record for 18 holes a 287.  Colin secured All-Conference honors, All-Region Honors with a runner-up finish at regionals and All-State honors for the second year in a row by placing t3.  Way to go Colin!  We will see you on tour one day!
