Nick Carbary might've had one of the tournament's lowest rounds, but Jake Elias (East Grand Rapids H.S.) has the trophy in his trunk.  Elias shot 72-70 to prevent Carbary from becoming the first back-to-back champion in tournament history.  

Chris Noble (Niles) won his age division for the fifth straight year, carding a 70-76 to take the Boys 14-15.

Katrina Templar (Greenville) captured the Women's 18-20 division, while Jon Christ (Kalamazoo Hackett Catholic Central) ran away with the Boys' 16 by 11 shots -- the second consecutive year he's won his age group.
