Golf: Sterling claims second straight regional title

Warriors rock on

DIXON – A rock-hard Timber Creek Country Club gave golfers fits at Tuesday’s Class 2A Dixon Regional.

Luckily for Sterling, Andrew Blackburn was rock solid, and he guided the Golden Warriors to a second consecutive regional title. They won a year ago in Sycamore.

Blackburn earned medalist honors with a 2-over-par 73, and Sterling
finished with a 323 team total, one fewer than runner-up Ottawa.
Princeton (348) finished third, and those three teams qualified for the Belvidere Sectional on Monday at Timber Pointe Golf Course in Poplar Grove.

Good or bad? Depends on who you ask
