The conference match was an 18-hole event that featured a total of 43 golfers and seven teams in the Illinois Division. All Cahokia Conference teams participated in the tournament, but each division was scored separately so that the Illinois, Kaskaskia, and Mississippi Divisions each had their own All-Conference Teams and finishing rankings.
