Ephs finish 4th out of 15 at Hamilton Invitational - October 06, 2008
Clinton, NY - After a slightly subpar perfromance in tough playing conditions on Saturday, the men's golf team came back strong and focused on Sunday posting an impressive team score of 304. This was good enough for fourth place at this weekend's Hamilton Invitational, as the Ephs total of 620 fell short only to Middllebury (617), Salem State (613), and tournament winner Skidmore (585).
"We have been searching for more consistency all season long and it was nice to see all 5 players in the 70's today," commented head coach Rick Pohle.
"The guys seemed much more relaxed than they were yesterday, and it felt really good to shoot well not just as individuals but as a team," said senior Galen Jackson, who ended the weekend with a strong round of 76 (total score of 158).
Several other Ephs also had nice rebound rounds on Sunday, including sophomores Bob Camp and Jake Wagner, who both shot in the 80's on Saturday, only to come back in round two with scores of 77 and 74, respectively. But it was Drew Murray who shined this weekend, posting rounds of 75 and 77 in this tournament.
"Drew saved us on day one with a great score on a very difficult course and tough weahter conditions," recognized Pohle.
At this point in the season, the golf squad is looking more for team consistency than anything else, and they certainly achieved this in Sunday's round. However there is still a lot of golf left this fall, and if the Ephs are going to make a statement heading into the upcoming NESCAC Championship this coming spring, they will have to maintain a higher level of smart, consistent play at these two-round tournaments.
The Ephs finish their fall portion of their schedule next weekend at the Trinity Invitational where they will play at the TPC River Highlands in Cromwell, Connecticut and Shuttle Meadow GC in Kensington of the same state. The time of these rounds is yet to be determined.
