CONGRATULATIONS TO DANNY HELIN WHO QUALIFIED FOR THE STATE TOURNAMENT
2011 Season
The 2011 Saint Francis DeSales Golf team returned 4 players from its 2010 Division 2 State Championship Tournament team. Led by its Upper Classmen, the team built upon the strong foundations established last season.
This season, the team took on one of the toughest schedules in the state of Ohio, including the 2010 Division I state champion and a competitive Central Catholic schedule. This type of schedule has become a staple of the DeSales golf program in preparing its athletes for post season play. The DeSales golf program has participated in the OHSAA District tournaments 8 out of the last 10 years.
