SOUTHWICK GOLF

CHICOPEE – Earlier this season, Southwick-Tolland Regional High School golf coach Al Selden reached a milestone 100th victory. If that wasn’t enough, the Rams etched another historic chapter in their storybook season.
On Wednesday, Southwick steamrolled another opponent – this time it was Chicopee 24-0 – to remain perfect at 16-0, and in the process improved to 9-0 in the Suburban East league to clinch a league title.
It is the third straight year that Southwick has claimed a league championship. The Rams are currently in the midst of a league win streak of 38-0 that spans more than three years.
James Longhi who has been out front of Western Mass golfers all year, led the pack again with a round of 39 at Chicopee Country Club. Nick Kavrakis shot a 40, Chris Baker and Matt Garrity each finished with a 42, and Jack Fairley and Brad Durand had 43 apiece.
Southwick will look to extend its dominance Thursday against Belchertown at The Ranch. Tee time is at 3 p.m.
