More Snow
The Berkshires received several inches of snow this morning, but not enough to close schools, unlike yesterday's sleety mess. Temperatures will drop into the 20s this afternoon. A few more snow showers are expected through the weekend.
We have reports that the roads are very slippery to take care in the evening commute. |

Ephs finish 9th at Dartmouth Invitational - September 15, 2008
HANOVER, NH – The plan was to avoid the big number on every Eph player's scorecard today. The plan was solid, but the results did not follow the plan and the Ephs totaled 10 shots more today they did on day one at the Dartmouth Invitational scoring a 336. The Eph two-day total of 662 placed them ninth in the field of 17 teams.
Host Dartmouth, which scored a 308 on day one to take a three-shot lead over finished nine shots behind winner Harvard. Harvard opened with a 314 and then shot a 302 today to win.
Maybe it was the rain, maybe it was the rain delay that pushed back today's start that caused the plan for the day to malfunction, but Eph head coach Kris Herman summed it up by saying, "In golf, you are what you are. We all know that we are better than this score today and what we showed this weekend so we have to get back to work this week and get ready for next weekend."
Herman would admit that her team did seem to play better as the weather improved, but she was not about to use that as an excuse. "We started in rain and the last 12, maybe 13 holes were fine weather-wise, but it's golf and you have to adapt to the weather."
First year Kristen Tubbs, Kristin Nottebohm and Kait O'Brien had the best first nines for the Ephs with a 44. Melissa Barton and Anne O'Leary both opened with a 45.
O'Leary carded a 38 on the back and Tubbs shot a 39 to tie for team-best score with 83 on the day. Melissa Barton shot a 40 on the back and Kristin Nottebohm was one-shot back at 41, as both finished with an 85.
Junior Kait O'Brien struggled on the back nine and had to overcome an injury just to finish and she ended up with a 94 on the day.
Over the two days the Ephs were led by Melissa Barton's 162, followed by Anne O'Leary (163), Kristen Tubbs (168), Kristin Nottebohm (178) and Kait O'Brien (174).
"It was nice to see Kristen Tubbs follow up her 85 yesterday with an 83 today to produce a solid showing in her first collegiate tournament," remarked Herman.
Next Saturday and Sunday the Ephs will compete in the Mount Holyoke Invitational. |
