I believe that you can accomplish what you are after by changing the
quoted menuentry label in grub.cfg:

    menuentry 'CentOS Linux (3.10.0-1062.1.2.el7.x86_64) 7 (Core)' ...

to just a blank:

    menuentry ' ' ...

for the specific entry. I do this for the windows side of my
dual-boot laptop. I boot to windows by scrolling down to the blank
line below the centos entries.
