The CIAC’s two state championship tournaments will be Monday, Oct. 18 with the Division I tournament at Chippanee Country Club in Bristol and the Division II tournament at Silo Point Country Club in Southbury. Lewis Mills will compete in the Division II event.

The New England tournament has moved to the fall and will be held Nov. 1 at Mohegan Sun course in Baltic. The top three finishers, plus ties, in the Division I and Division II tournament will qualify along with six other golfers. Only golfers playing in the fall can qualify for the New England tournament.
