HOW IT HAPPENED

  • Dean senior Austin McCreary (Northampton, Mass.) earned medalist honors with a low-round of 75 for the Bulldogs
  • EC senior Colin Cordero (Bolton, Conn.) turned in the only other card on the day in the 70's, shooting a 78 to pace the Saints
  • Mitchell sophomore Nick Knisel (Weatogue, Conn.) carded a team-low 81 for the Mariners
  • Emmanuel sophomore Taylor Kieselback (Simsbury, Conn.) was the only other Saint to break 90, posting an 89 in the match

BY THE NUMBERS

  • The match was originally scheduled for the William J. Devine Golf Course at Frankling Park but moved to George Wright due to aeration maintenance.
  • The 78 by Cordero was just one stroke shy of tying his career-best of 77 which he also shot at George Wright during his sophomore campaign.
  • Sophomore Ian Tait (Scituate, Mass.) and junior Daniel Van Auken (Natick, Mass.) made their collegiate debuts for Emmanuel.
  • Fisher only had two golfers compete in the match and was disqualified from the team competition despite Cooper Lewis (Littleton, Mass.) and Dan Robbins (Saugus, Mass.) shooting a 82 and 101.

WHAT'S NEXT?

  • Emmanuel returns to action this coming weekend for the University of Southern Maine Fall Classic at Gorham Country Club in Gorham, Maine. The Fall Classic is a two-day event that will be played on Sunday, October 8 and Monday, October 9.
