The Columbus East Olympian boys golf team took to the course on Friday, June 5, 2026, to compete in the IHSAA Sectional tournament. Hosted by Greensburg High School, the competitive field faced off at the Greensburg Country Club. Despite a highly competitive effort across the par-70 course, the Olympians finished sixth overall with a team score of 349. Because only the top three teams advance, Columbus East's team postseason run comes to an end, and they will unfortunately not advance to the Regional round.
