The Episcopal School of Acadiana has another state championship trophy to add to the case as the boys golf team dominated the field to win the Division IV title at Bayou Bend Country Club in Crowley. 

After a stunning opening day of the tournament, the Falcons went in to Day 2 with a 16-stroke lead. 

With a total Day 1 score of 304, ESA closed out the tournament with a 306 score on Tuesday to secure an 18-stroke victory over defending champs Ouachita Christian. 

In Division III, Catholic High’s Meyer Schopp made his first appearance at the state tournament as the eighth grader competed against some of the best golf talent in the state. 

With a final score of 170, Schopp tied for 24th place at the tournament. 

Improving from a first-day score of 92 to 78 on the second day, Schopp showed tremendous improvement and will surely make a return to the LHSAA Golf State Championships during his high school career.
