Cheverus High School of Portland, Lincoln Academy of Newcastle and Maranacook High School of Readfield won Maine high school golf state championships at Natanis Golf Course in Vassalboro on Oct. 9 and Oct. 10, the Bangor Daily News reported.

In Class C, Maranacook shot a 317 to edge Winthrop by one stroke, with Calais third at 328. Maranacook's Jack Fontaine led individuals with a 73.

Because there are no girls teams, girls compete on boys teams with a separate individual competition. Cheverus' Jacquelin Sirois and Camden Hills' Lila Dailey tied for the Class A girls title at 97. Lake Region's Kathryn Peterson and Fryeburg Academy's Carla Ferraris shared the Class B title at 90, and Winthrop's Kayden Allaire won Class C with an 83.
