Science Hill's Treadway inks with Buffs

Johnson City, Tenn. (May 26, 2009) --- Science Hill’s Bobby Treadway has signed his letter of intent to attend Milligan College and play golf for the Buffs.

Treadway, a standout golfer for the Hilltoppers, earned All-Big Nine Conference honors as a senior while carrying a 74 stroke average. Treadway helped lead the Hilltoppers to a District Championship title in 2007 under the direction of Science Hill Head Coach Josh Carter.

“We are very excited to have Bobby join us at Milligan,” commented Head Coach Tony Wallingford. “Like his brother Ben, he is an outstanding golfer, a solid student and a quality person.”

Bobby will become the third current Hilltopper to play on the Buffs’ squad in the fall. He joins his brother Ben Treadway (Johnson City, Tenn.), a junior who was selected to the All-Region squad as a freshman, and sophomore Jared Songster (Johnson City, Tenn.).

Treadway, an honor student at Science Hill, plans a major in accounting at Milligan.

The Buffs graduated two from this year's squad that finished fourth in the AAC. Seniors Jay Bernhardt (Johnston City, Ill.) and Michael Woods (Knoxville, Tenn.) both graduated in May after a four year stint with the Buffs and were a part of the team that won the AAC/Region XII tournament in 2007. This past year, Bernhardt broke the single round scoring record with a final round 68 at the AAC regular season fall tournament and was an All-AAC second team selection.
