HUNTINGTON, W.Va. - Nathan Kerns doesn't mind working overtime. Especially if it pays well.

Kerns had to work overtime Friday in the 10-12 age division of the Tri-State Junior Golf Circuit stop at the Riviera Country Club, but it was worth the extra work as he came away with a victory.

Kerns, from Ironton, won the third flight of the 10-12 division on the fourth hole of sudden death over Stu Doll of Portsmouth. Kerns finished with a 36 over the nine holes prior to the playoff.
