Even after rain scattered across the area over the past 36 hours North Surry coach Daron Atkins said conditions at Hemlock weren’t horrendous.
“It was overcast and there was drizzle but the course played fine,” he said. “It was a winter course, the greens were slick and it was a little windy but otherwise it wasn’t bad.”
Two matches into the eight-match conference season, Bishop McGuinness leads North Surry by two in overall strokes 304-306.
North Stokes is third at 307, East Surry sits fifth at 318, while Surry Central (348) and Mount Airy (352) are sixth and seventh, respectively.

DOBSON — Mount Airy performed well against a scrappy Surry Central squad, winning 9-0. The teams hadn’t played each other in a while, but the Granite Bears and Golden Eagles always play each other tough, and Monday night was no different. Mount Airy’s Taylor Bobbitt is new to the program, and he got a lot of action.
“I thought he was very sold and has improved a lot since the start of the season,” Mount Airy coach Scott Kniskern said. “With his athleticism he should get even better.”
Kniskern also was pleased with the way Brooks Mayberry used his forehands to his advantage.
The Granite Bears will next take on Mt. Tabor Thursday.
“These tough non-conference matches always serve as a good measuring stick of where we are at, so hopefully we will see some improvement,” Kniskern said.
