Bellbrook, Valley View Win SWBL Golf Titles

Bellbrook (Southwestern Division) and Valley View (Buckeye Division) won the Southwestern Buckeye League boys golf titles on Tuesday at Beechwood Golf Club. The SWBL held three tournaments this season to crown team and individual champions. Bellbrook dominated – as expected – in claiming back-to-back titles. The Eagles beat runner-up Ross by 147 strokes (904-1,1051) over the three-event schedule and had three of the league’s top four overall golfers, led by senior and medalist CJ Scohy. Scohy, who is committed to Wright State, beat Franklin junior Aiden Standifer, last year’s medalist, by three strokes (212-215). Bellbrook juniors David Gregory (230) and Brody Miller (231) were third and fourth, respectively. Valley View, led by sophomore medalist Brody Denny (232), rallied from a 13-stroke deficit after the first two events, to edge Oakwood for the title by two strokes (1,032-1,034). It is the Spartans first league title in boys golf since 2006. Carlisle was third. Oakwood sophomore Eddie McCarthy (246) was the individual Buckeye runner-up. Complete results: Southwestern Division and Buckeye Division.
