Brady Wood shot a 40, Cam Skiffington carded a 41 while Jacob Cornelison and Porter Hall each scored a 45 for the Redhawks. 

South Hadley 168, Mohawk Trail 175 — Phineas Tuttman and Logan Moore each shot a 41 for the Warriors in a season-opening loss to the Tigers at Ledges Golf Course in South Hadley on Wednesday.

Conner Bergeron (43) and Douglas Wilcox (50) also scored for Mohawk Trail.
