Jacoby Light's one-over 36 helps Martha's Vineyard golf top Falmouth

Martha’s Vineyard was one of the last Cape Cod and Islands boys high school golf teams to put a peg in the ground for the 2026 season, but it hasn’t skipped a beat since opening day.

Jacoby Light turned in a round of one-over 36 that included going two-under of his final three holes to power undefeated Martha’s Vineyard past Falmouth 237-253 at Farm Neck Golf Club on Tuesday.

Macallan Moran turned in a two-over 37, Chandler Blau carded a five-over 40, while Ben Kokoszka and Shane Harding posted matching 41s. Peter Williamson shot a 42 to pace Martha’s Vineyard (4-0) in the win.

Martha’s Vineyard has averaged a team total of 238.0 strokes per nine holes and broken 240 in three out of its four wins.

Falmouth (3-2) was led by Matthew Tribou and Jackson Smith, who both posted four-over 39s. Gavin Powderly went around in 40. Logan Friel (45), Grady Cox (47) and Eamon Furfey (48) rounded out the team total.
