Fourth place was captured by 7-AAA rival South Forsyth.<br> <br> The home course advantage was not enough to overcome Richmond Academy&#39;s Mike Green who fired a low medalist round of 70. Savannah Christian&#39;s Toshi Hirata 71 was second best on the day.<br> <br> Low score for the Elephants was turned in by Morgan Nix who shot a par 72. Taylor Sholes fired a 77 and John Henson carded a 79.<br> <br> &#34;Our school was the highest finishing public school in 7-AAA&#34;, said Gainesville Coach Bob Dillishaw, &#34;Savannah Christian and Richmond Academy both have real strong teams...and they can put up some good numbers, so that says a lot about our program to finish third behind those two.&#34;
