BUFFALO – Torrington High School senior golfer Gage Gibson capped off his high school golf career with a fifth-place finish at the state tournament in Buffalo over the weekend.

On day two, Gibson fired an 84 but managed to stay in the top five, to finish tied for fifth with a two-day total of 159.
“Gage Gibson had a great weekend,” coach Jeff Halley said. “He shot one of his personal bests on Friday and was in second after the first day. Then shot a good score on day two to remain fifth.”
