Effingham St. Anthony captured the championship of the Class 1A Robinson Boys Golf Regional at Quail Creek Country Club Tuesday.

St. Anthony's Luke Ludwig was medalist with a 73.
"The team played very well today," said St. Anthony Coach Phil Zaccari. "Quail Creek is not an easy track and we had everyone come in under 85. Luke Ludwig played a very solid round of golf today to claim medalist honors. The greens were fast and he putted them very well.
"Zach Wortman shot one of the best rounds of his career to place fourth and Nathan Schultz grinded out an 82 to place in the top five. We are happy with the win today and are looking forward to sectionals at the Effingham Country Club Monday."
The top three teams along with the top 10 individuals not members of those teams, advance to the St. Anthony Sectional Monday at the Effingham Country Club.
Ludwig tallied a 36-37 -- 73 while Wortman scored 39-42 -- 81, Schultz 39-43 -- 82 and Ben Strullmyer 42-42 -- 84. Jayden Rios added 45-39 -- 84 and Luke Flaig 45-40 -- 85.
