The CIF Central Section Boys Golf Championship tournament Monday brought a close to the team title hopes of Bakersfield Christian, Liberty and Centennial, but three local golfers among two of those teams — Centennial’s Bob O’Hara and BCHS’s Raeyyan Shahid and Connor Carr — extended their seasons individually.

Played at the par-71 Monarch Dunes Golf Club in Nipomo, nine teams and 26 individuals qualified for the tournament. All were playing for either first or second place in the team category or to be one of 12 individuals to advance to the May 28 CIF Southern California Regional Tournament. The tournament will be played at Los Serranos Golf Course’s South Course in Chino Hills.
