We return everyone from last year and at team that finished 2nd in the MVAC, tied for 3rd at sectionals and had one State qualifier and two district qualifiers. James Morgan is hands down one of the best golfers in the State across all divisions and will lead arguably the best boy’s team that Southeast has ever had going into the 2025 season. Junior Cole Bruno came on strong at the end of the season last year finishing 2nd in the MVAC and qualified out of sectionals with a 75 at Windmill. Alex Peelish, Ethan Shodd, and Shade Stevens are all capable or rounds in the high 30’s and low 40’s on a consistent basis. We can’t wait for the season to begin!

He is one of the elite players in the area. Ian’s been an integral player the past two seasons earning 1st GLC honors both seasons.
(Sr.) Jack Chalmers will join forces with Ian to be the catalysts of the squad. Jack earned 2nd team GLC honors last season. He’s played all summer and is ready to take the next step. Jack is a smart player that grinds out pars.
(Soph.) Travis Ropelewski will round-out the top three. He gained valuable experience at the varsity level last season, earning 2nd team GLC honors. Travis plays with power. He’s a high level competitor. His short game is improving.
All three are strong iron players. With improved consistency and decision making, they can all become elite players in the area. They are putting in the work and are ready to make some noise @ D-2.
We are looking forward to a competitive season. Our goal is to compete with the high level teams in the area, win the GLC Championship and make a run deep into the Division II tournament. It will be an exciting season for the Rockets.

Coach Comments- The Bay Village squad is returning three high level players from last season. Senior Josh Hammond will be the elder statesman. Josh has been an integral player the past two seasons. Juniors Ian Williams and Jack Chalmers will join forces with Josh to be the catalysts of the squad.
Josh earned 2nd team GLC honors the past two seasons. Ian Williams was a first team GLC member. At the GLC Championship (Grey Hawk Golf Club), Ian fired a 76 to earn 2nd place individual honors. The Rockets surprised the field and finished first place @ the GLC Championship.
Jack Chalmers will round-out the top three. Jack gained valuable experience at the varsity level. Jack is a smart player. He grinds out pars. All three are strong iron players. With improved short games, they can catapult into elite players in the area. These fellas have been putting in the work hard and are ready to make some noise.
The remaining three varsity sports will be highly contested. Potential candidates include sophomores Travis Ropelski, Jayson Miller, Ben Wagner, Jayden Perrine and Trevor Ormsby. The “Fab Five” freshmen made noise at the JV level. It’s time for these sophomores to take their games to the next level. It will be a heated competition.
We are looking forward to a competitive season. Our hope is to surprise the teams in the area. We are youthful…but have a big upside. The Great Lakes Conference has some of the strongest players in the area. It will be an exciting conference to follow this season.

The Bulldogs lost a 4 year letterman and conference MVP – Ben Scheeff (Cleveland State), but returns 4 full time varsity players and a few players that did get some varsity experience last year. There will be a rotation at the bottom of the lineup and there will be some good competition for those final 2 spots each week across several capable players. The team will be lead by Dylan Sowers (Sr) who will be in his 4th year as a Varsity player coming off his best year (1st Team All-SWC, District Qualifier, 18 hole avg – 78.0, 9 hole avg – 38.15)
