Five-county morning roundup: New Albany, Corinth and Ripley golf teams open state play

Original RCTV 19 schedule graphic for the October 26 boys Class 4A golf championship at Dancing Rabbit Golf Club; it is not a tournament photograph.

Monday morning's five-county check found one timely, verified event involving Union, Alcorn and Tippah counties: their Class 4A boys golf teams are scheduled to begin state championship play today. This is an advance schedule item, not a tournament result.

Union, Alcorn and Tippah: Boys golf state play begins Monday

New Albany's boys golf team is scheduled to compete Oct. 26–27 at Dancing Rabbit Golf Club in Choctaw. Union County Sports reported Sunday that New Albany advanced from its regional tournament alongside Corinth and Ripley. The Mississippi High School Activities Association lists Dancing Rabbit as the Class 4A boys championship site and Oct. 26 as the start date. Tee times and results were not available in the cited report. Readers planning to attend should confirm the latest schedule with the schools or MHSAA.

No separate meaningful new Prentiss or Benton County development with enough verified detail was found by this morning's check. Sunday's roundup already covered the Alcorn school dismissal and rally parking notices, Union's education grant, and Baldwyn student job-shadowing; those are not repeated here as new developments.
