Westlake golfer Adam Villanueva aims to defend state title at 6A championships this week

Westlake will gun for a seventh consecutive state team championship, Lake Travis will try to derail the Chaparrals' streak and a Wimberley senior will aim for his third individual title in four years.

These are a few of the storylines for the UIL boys state golf championships, which convene Monday at various courses in Central Texas this week.

Here are five golfers to follow:

Jaxon Donaldson, Wimberley: The Texans junior won the Class 4A state championship as a freshman, finished second as a sophomore, and won his second title last year as a junior. The Texas State-bound golfer warmed up for this week's state tournament by winning the 4A Region IV tournament by 10 shots.

Ethan Dufresne, Lake Travis: The Cavaliers senior is a four-year letterman who placed fifth at state last year in the individual race. A two-year captain, he will continue his career next year at Sam Houston State.

Elijah Galvan, Lake Travis: He shot a 69 on the second round of last year's state tournament to help the Cavaliers finish second. Galvan will continue his career next year at St. Mary's University in San Antonio.

Adam Villanueva, Westlake: Now a junior, Villanueva won the Class 6A championship last year in his first state tournament appearance. Already committed to Texas, he shot consecutive 66s during the two-day event, capping the victory with a birdie on the 18th hole.

Grant Yerger, Westlake: The Chaparrals senior warmed up for state by winning the Region IV championship by two strokes over teammate Blake Burt. Yerger posted scores of 68 and 69 over the two-day event to help Westlake win the team title by seven shots over Lake Travis.
