For 31 years, our program hosted two separate invitationals, Bud Mohns and Bob Cohoon Invitationals. We unfortunately had to disband the Bob Cohoon Invitational after the 2022 season. Since the recent passing of Bob Cohoon (July, 4, 2023), our coaching staff has decided to rename our home invitational the Bud Mohns & Bob Cohoon Invitational to honor two men who dedicated nearly 80 years to the Downers Grove South community between teaching and coaching.
Below is the 2025 meet program.
