On Monday the Mustangs won their fourth straight district title at Venetian Golf Course in North Venice. The Mustangs won by 23 shots and were 18 under par as a team, a new team record. Senior Danny Walker scored a 65, senior Ramsey Touchberry scored a 66. Junior Luke Miller (67), sophomores Kelly Sun (72) and Charlie Sun (74) were 3rd, 6th, and 8th. The boys will defend their Region 5 title Oct. 21, again at Venetian.

The Mustangs also won at the Manatee County Championship and set a tournament record with a 14 under par team total. The boys beat runners-up Bradenton Christian by 42 shots. Touchberry scored a 67, Miller and Walker scored 68s and Charlie and Kelly Sun also broke par with 71s.
