MUNCIE, Ind. — Just like last year, the 2023 Delaware County boys golf tournament team champion was not home to the individual medalist.
Yorktown on Saturday at Muncie's Elks Lodge hoisted its fifth consecutive trophy, notching a group score of 321 to top Delta by six strokes, but it was Eagles junior Jake Bilby's score of 68 that turned heads.
The now back-to-back individual county champion's performance was, according to multiple coaches and one of the club's workers, the lowest high school tournament mark from a Delaware County player in at least a decade. He missed just one green on the day and took advantage of the surprisingly pleasant conditions to slash 11 strokes off his winning total from 2022.
