Boys Golf

Behind an 87 by Chad Green, Slippery Rock placed second in the Region 2 Mega Match behind first place Grove City.

Four teams — Sharon, Hickory, Wilmington and Sharpsville were disqualified and received zero points because two groups involving golfers on those four teams merged on the final hole for an eightsome. The rules committee deemed that they were disqualified due to not finishing with the group the tournament committee assigned to them.
