Williams Men's Golf Wins Williams/Middlebury Cup Matches
Williams Sports Info 09:18AM / Sunday, April 19, 2009
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. – Coming in with the lead in the final round of the Williams/Middlebury Cup Matches, the Williams Men’s Golf team took charge and won back the title from Middlebury to the tune of 50 ½ to 21 ½ at Taconic Golf Club.
Playing in a tournament on home soil for the first time this spring season, the Ephs pounded the Panthers 28 ½ to 7 ½ in the singles and aggregate format today, adding onto the slim 22 to 14 lead the Ephs held after round one from the singles and best-ball matches.
Today’s result seemed to be a positive lift that the men’s golf team had been looking for since the start of the spring portion of the season. "As all of us would admit, we have been struggling,” said Coach Pohle, “but I think as a team we played very well this weekend and got some very good play from a large number of players."
Tyler Zara and Galen Jackson secured all 9 points in their matches, while Matt Felser and Bob Camp recorded 8 1/2 of the possible 9 points in theirs. Jake Wagner and Jack Killea were able to record 6 more points in their match and Siwol Chang and Drew Murray produced the final 5 points.
Bob Camp ‘11 fired the best round of the day with a fine 72 and got strong support from Tyler Zara ‘09 (75), Jack Killea ‘11 (75), Matt Felser ‘09 (77) and Jake Wagner ‘11 (77). "We're in the final stages of selecting the 5 man roster for the NESCAC Championship at Middlebury, which will be held this upcoming weekend," said Coach Pohle.
The top 4 teams from last fall's NESCAC tournament will be playing for the right to represent the conference at the NCAA's in Port St. Lucie, FL in May. Reflecting on the weekend, Coach Pohle added, "I think things are rounding into shape and we are hoping that the team continues it's improvement through next weekend which should be a great event with some great competition."
