J-Hawk Invite Opens Season

5 Golf teams – including some very big schools – all gathered in Rockford to officially begin the 2024 Fall Sports High School season at the Rockford Jefferson J-Hawk Invitational.

1 Rockford Guilford 244

2 Rockford Harlem 245

3 Freeport 249

Belvidere North 249

5 Woodstock Co-op 253

6 Dixon 257
