Zachary Martin of Pinehurst combined great putting with a bit of local knowledge to win the 88-player Boys Division of Sunday's K12 qualifying tournament for this week's Golf Pride Junior Classic. (Complete results are below.)

The 18-hole qualifying event, conducted by the American Junior Golf Association, was played at the Mid Pines Inn and Golf Club at Southern Pines. The field consisted of 88 boys and 12 girls ages 12-18 and from 10 states and China. The par-72 course was played at 6,522 yards in the Boys Division and 6,072 yards in the Girls Division. Several Triangle competitors were among the 10 boys and five girls who advanced to the Golf Pride Junior Classic, which starts Tuesday at Pine Needles Lodge and Golf Club in Southern Pines.

Martin shot a 5-under-par 67, a score that included seven birdies and was helped by the golfer's appreciation of Mid Pines and other Donald Ross-designed courses.

“I like Donald Ross courses, and apparently I seem to play well on them,” Martin said in an AJGA news release.  “My approach shots were really close and I felt confident on the four to five foot putts.  I just want to keep it steady this week and stay in a good position.”

Kayla Sciupider of Etowah took a five-stroke victory in the 12-player Girls Division after shooting a 3-under-par 69. 

Sciupider relied on her iron game during Sunday’s K12 Qualifier and was even par most of the day but had a birdie on No. 14 and then closed with two more birdies on Nos. 17 and 18.    
 
“I finished birdie-birdie and I never really got into trouble,” Sciupider said. “I struggled with my driving but I always knew I would have an easy putt because my irons were so consistent.”

Both medalists chose to play in this week’s Golf Pride Junior Classic. Golfers who qualify at K12 qualifying events can choose to play in that week's tournament or save exemptions for future events.
 
Ten other boys qualified to play in this week’s tournament: Daniel Pizetoski of Davidson, nd Larry Han of Raleigh  at 3-under-par 69; Andrew Decker of Greenville, Christian Cichan of Charlotte,, Thomas Stewart of St. Augustine, Fla., and Alex Ehlert of Raleigh at 2-under-par 70; Richard Fountain of Raleigh, Stanhope Johnson Jr. of Greensboro and Kyle Arakelian of Raleigh at 1-under-par 71; W. Coalter Paxton IV of Wilson, Dennis Driscoll of Manhasset, N.Y., and John David Sanderson of Suffolk, Va., at par 72. 
 
Girls qualifying to play this week were Jacqueline Shelly of Fernandina Beach, Fla., at 2-over-par 74, Sarah Bae of Raleigh at 3-over-par 75 and Katie Mitchell of Seymour, Tenn., who carded an 85.  
 
The nonprofit American Junior Golf Association has an annual junior membership (boys and girls ages 12-18) of approximately 5,000 golfers from 50 states and 25 countries.

Will Minton of Raleigh put together three straight rounds under par to win the boys’ 12-13 division at the Dogwood State Junior Championship golf tournament played Aug. 4-6 at Cabarrus Country Club in Concord. The annual junior championship is conducted by the Carolinas Golf Association.

Minton's victory came by one stroke over Kyle Austin of Mebane. (Complete results are below.)

Michael McGowan of Southern Pines and Allison Emrey of Charlotte won championships in their division.

McGowan, the 2008 North Carolina Junior Player of the Year, added to his résumé by shooting a final-round 68 to win the overall championship and the boys’ 16-18 division by two strokes. McGowan, an incoming freshman at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, finished with a 210 total, which was 6-under for the tournament.
