It was a challenging day on the course for a lot of the competitors. John Kalnins ’14 had the lowest round on the team that day shooting an 89, which was second best in his flight. Tyler DeLuca ’14 won the closest to the pin competition, and was within a few yards of also winning the longest drive competition.
