Jerome Girls and Boys Both Claim Third-Straight Titles

COLUMBUS, Ohio – On a rain-soaked, chilly day on the Scarlet and Gray Courses at The Ohio State University Golf Club, Dublin Jerome accomplished their third-straight sweep of the Ohio High School Athletic Association girls and boys Division I golf state tournaments.

Jerome is the only school in OHSAA history to win the girls and boys golf state tournaments in the same season, and the Celtics have now done it four times, including each of the last three seasons (and in 2005). The Jerome girls now own four state championships, which stands as the most since the OHSAA adopted girls golf in 1993. The Celtics had been tied with three other schools with three titles.

On Gray (Par 70, 5311 yards), the Jerome girls (313-309-622) trailed Rocky River Magnificat by three strokes after the first round Friday, but shot five shots better on Saturday despite the rain and cold to post a 10-stroke win over runner-up Massillon Jackson (323-309-632). Magnificat (310-330-640) finished third.

Jerome senior Lexie Toth (73-78-151) and junior Sybil Robinson (80-75-155) led the way for the Celtics. Columbus Bishop Watterson junior Erin Harper claimed medalist honors with a 71-74-145.

On Scarlet (Par 71, 7115 yards), the Jerome boys (319-322-641) trailed Cincinnati St. Xavier by one stroke after the first round Friday, but came back in the tough conditions to top runner-up Pickerington North (328-318-646) by five strokes. St. Xavier finished third (318-329-647). The Jerome boys now own six state titles, which ties them for second-most all time with Gahanna Columbus Academy. Upper Arlington’s 17 state titles is tops.

Jerome senior Brady Bohl led the Celtics with a 79-78-157. Sophomores Adam Stephens (79-81-160) and Grant Lewis (79-82-161) rounded out the top three. Dublin Coffman senior Nick Sparling repeated as individual medalist with a 70-76-146. He is the OHSAA’s 16th multiple medalist and first from Coffman.
