WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. – The Eph golfers completed Day 1 of the Williams/Middlebury Cup Match at Taconic Golf Club and currently hold a 22-14 lead heading into the final round tomorrow.
On a cloudy day with the occasional drizzle of rain, the Ephs played 8 singles medal play matches and 4 best-ball matches against Middlebury in this unique format that merges a Ryder Cup style of play along with the traditional stroke play of tournaments. Points are awarded based on two 9 hole matches and then the total 18 hole match for both singles and best-ball.
Jake Wagner ‘11, Siwol Chang ‘12, Tyler Zara ’09, and Galen Jackson ‘09 all swept their matches this afternoon, logging 3 points each. The best-ball duo of Zara and Jackson were the only two-man team to sweep their matches for Williams. Chang and Matt Felser ’09 were able to capture 2 ½ of the 3 points after a scintillating eagle by Felser on the 18th hole to close out the match.
First year Siwol Chang turned in the best score for the Ephs today with a 77, but was closely followed by Wagner, Felser and Zara who all posted a 78. "We got steady play from the top of our order,” said Coach Pohle, “but the depth of our players in the lower portion really sealed the deal for us today."
Play will conclude tomorrow at Taconic Golf Club, with the first tee time going off at 12:00 pm. Tomorrow’s format will consist of 8 singles matches and 4 aggregate matches (which is the combination of the two-man team scores).
