With six rounds of golf under their belts, the Destin Marlins are looking to win the Okaloosa County championship. 

“We are having an outstanding year,” said golf coach Terry Gulledge. 

Destin Middle School's Trina Mille watches her shot go down the fairway at Regatta Bay. The Lady Marlins beat Liza Jackson 142-183.

“Both teams are unbeaten so far, and it looks like we have a good chance to bring the county championship back to Destin,” Gulledge said. 

During a match with Davidson Middle of Crestview on April 1, Camryn Lux shot an even par 25, which was one of the best scores shot by a girl or a boy at Destin Middle, according to Gulledge.
