The Jefferson District’s golf series got off to a rain-shortened stop Wednesday at Birdwood with Albemarle picking up a win by 13 strokes. The match had to be shortened to 12 holes after weather impacted play. The 12th was the last hole that all players completed, so it was a par 47 on the day. The Patriots carded a 209 to outpace runner-up Western Albemarle who posted a 222. The Patriots’ Jack Bruns’ 47 was the days low score through 12 holes while Western’s Luke Vance finished with a 49 to take second place.
