HOUSTON - Clutch is a word that is used often in sports, but the most recent accomplishment for Cove seventh-grader, Elle Fox, could be listed in the dictionary as a reference sentence for the definition. It would read something like this, ‘Copperas Cove junior golfer Elle Fox finished third in the local Drive, Chip and Putt competition and second in the sub-regional, but the clutch seventh-grader outlasted the competition at the Regional Finals in Houston to qualify for the National Championship in Augusta.’

Fox qualifies for the National competition to be held in early April at the home of The Masters in Augusta, Ga. Fox is one of seven qualifiers in the girls 12-13 age group. -- COURTESY PHOTO
