Will C. Wood High of Vacaville returned home with the Tony Horton Golf Invitational’s team and individual championships Wednesday at Manteca Park Golf Course.
Led by medalist Steven Staples’ even-par round of 72, the Wildcats edged out Modesto High 417-420 for the title. East Union was the top finisher among the three local teams, taking third with a 423.
Only nine schools were represented, with several others opting not to return because of spring break. There was still a nice mix of participants from the Central Valley and the East Bay.

East Union had two other top-10 finishers in Evan Lewis and Jordan Duval with an 82 and 83, respectively. Zac Couch (89) and Jordan Lunn (93) make up the rest of the Lancers’ score.
Sierra’s Ryan Leasure turned in a fourth-place score of 78. Other contributors were Kasey Milam (89), Tyler Gulbronson (98) and Blake Settlemoir (98).
Manteca was rock solid from No. 1-4 and was paced by Nick Gonzales’ 83. Casey Benson (88), Tim Baker (89), Dakota Morris (89) and Brandon Vilaysack (105) scored for the Buffaloes.
