DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Former Ohio State player Vaughn Snyder is back to defend his title this week at the 103rd Ohio Amateur golf championship at Moraine Country Club.

Snyder, a native of Massillon, had rounds of 71, 71, 70 and a closing 71 last year at Findlay Country Club to finish at 1-under 284, two strokes better than Blake Furgerson of Concord, Alex Martin of Middletown and Ethan Tracy of Hilliard. All three of Snyder's closest pursuers are also back for this week's tournament, which begins four rounds of stroke play on Tuesday.

Six other former Ohio Amateur champions are also in the 144-player field: Stephen Anderson (1990), Matt Ehlinger (1998), Alan Fadel (1995), Robert Gerwin II (1996, 2001), Andrew Montooth (1997) and Randy Reifers (1986).
