BATAVIA – The Wilmington High School boys golf team made it two in a row Monday by finishing on top of the SBAAC American Division boys golf field at Elks Run Golf Course.
Jack Murphy blitzed the field by eight strokes to earn medalist honors with a 36. He had seven pars and a birdie on the final hole to post the even par score.
“He has just been so steady for us this year and his scores are reaping the benefit of his hard work over the summer,” Wilmington coach Phil Gilmore said.
Carsyn Creager led Clinton-Massie with a 46. The Falcons were fifth overall in the team standings.
For Wilmington, Zane Carey started the day seven over through five holes then rallied to finish with a 46.
“We wanted to build our lead and that is what we did,” Gilmore said. ‘That has to be our mentality going into every league match.”
