Hughes Threlkeld grew up at The Landings Golf & Athletic Club honing his game on the six golf courses in the community — with the Deer Creek Course ranking as his favorite track. Now the Benedictine alum and senior standout at the University of North Georgia is set to play in a professional event for the first time on one of his home courses at the eighth annual Club Car Championship. The tournament, an event on the Korn Ferry Tour, is hosted by The Landings Golf & Athletic Club and runs Thursday-Sunday, April 3-6. Tournament officials announced they were awarding a special exemption for Threlkeld to compete in the event in January, and he's been anticipating the opportunity ever since. "I'm pretty pumped about getting the chance to play," Threlkeld said. "It seems like I've been waiting so long and now the week is finally here and I'm really excited."
Threlkeld's younger brother, Hamp, is a junior standout on a talented Benedictine golf team. Hamp will caddie for his brother in the Club Car Championship. "Hughes is a great player and knows his game so well," said Hamp, who is receiving recruiting interest from colleges including North Georgia and Mercer University. "We'll talk through every hole and every shot, and I'll pick my spots here and there if I think I need to add anything."

The Cadets are dominating the track and field scene this season! Breaking records across various events, from the 3200m run to the triple jump and the 4x800m relay, shows the strength and depth of the team. Sophomore Cole Minnich broke teammate John Dodson's 3200m run (9:48.8) with a time of 9:47.45. Cole, John, William Hoffman, and Tucker Hollis broke the 4x800m relay two weeks ago at 8:38.80. In the triple jump, Eron Mallard broke Travis Blackshear 2017 record (44'1.5"0) with a jump of 43'2.5".With performances like these, they’re definitely poised for success at the Region Championship in Warner Robins. The countdown is on for April 22nd–24th when the Region Championship takes place, and it’s exciting to think about which athletes will qualify for the sectionals at Mundy Mill High School in Ellenwood on May 2-3. The Class AAAA State Championship Meet at East Jackson High School on May 9-10 is sure to be a thrilling finish to what’s shaping up to be an impressive season for the Cadets.

Benedictine's Connor Ferguson announced Monday that he has committed to the University of Georgia as a preferred walk on. Ferguson is ranked No. 7 in the nation in the Kohl's Kicking rankings and is No. 1 in Georgia.
"I've been a Georgia fan since I was in kindergarten, and when I got to visit there and just loved the atmosphere, the school and the facilities — I mean, what's not to love. I developed a really strong relationship with the coaches there and that meant a lot. You could say this is a dream come true for me."
Ferguson said he thinks he'll have a chance to compete for the kickoff job right away, and he hopes to earn a full scholarship as he continues to develop as a Bulldog. An 'A' student, Ferguson said he plans to major in aerospace or aeronautical engineering with a path toward aviation.
