Santa Margarita and Sunny Hills earned major team rewards.
Ronin Banerjee of Santa Margarita almost claimed the top individual honor.
Orange County boys golf left Thursday’s SCGA team qualifier and CIF-SS individual championship — both played at Temecula Creek Golf Club — with plenty of accolades and a future playing date.
Santa Margarita and Sunny Hills finished second and fourth, respectively, to join Palm Desert and La Serna in the qualifying group for the CIF/SCGA Southern California Regional.
The regional will be played at Los Serranos Golf Club in Chino Hills on May 29. The tournament serves as the final qualifier for the state championships.
Palm Desert recorded an impressive score of 2-under-par 353 to top Santa Margarita (358), La Serna (359) and Sunny Hills (362).
Sage Hill placed fifth at 363.
Banerjee, a sophomore, shot a 4-under-par 67 to finished second in the section individual championship, one stroke behind Crespi junior Grant Leary at 66.
Sage Hill freshman Aaron Wang and Woodbridge sophomore Eli Allgood also shot 67 but weren’t eligible for the section title. Wang and Allgood didn’t play in the individual regionals to be eligible.
Sunny Hills was paced by Cole Kim’s 68.
Several county golfers not on Santa Margarita and Sunny Hills also qualified for the regional.
They were: Aadhavan Prasad of Beckman, Gianni Floriani of JSerra, Ben Matsuda of Portola, Maddox Pineda of Tesoro, Nick Davis of Orange Lutheran, Garrett Kenney of Yorba Linda, Matthew Hull of Corona del Mar, Shawn Nawata of Irvine, Brayden Jones of Mater Dei and Bill Hancock of Newport Harbor.
