Tupelo senior Michaela Bryan starts to cry as the scores are posted at the MHSAA Class III girls state golf tournament. Tupelo won its first state title by one stroke.. (Ernest Bowker/The Vicksburg Post) By John L. Pitts Daily Journal Tupelo won its first MHSAA Class III state girls golf championship in dramatic fashion Tuesday afternoon in Vicksburg, edging first-day leader D’Iberville by a stroke. “This is the best we’ve played as a team and as individuals all year,” Tupelo coach Sherry Rial said. Senior Michaela Bryan (78-76–154) finished third overall to lead the Lady Wave, while junior teammate Margaret Hill had a five-stroke improvement (86-81–167) that was one of the keys to a winning effort at Clear Creek Golf Club. “Michaela has been calling Margaret the MVP, because she chipped in for a birdie on the front nine,” Rial said.
