For the third year in a row, the Lenoir-Rhyne men’s golf team reigns supreme on their home course. Using rounds of 288-294-293 (875, +11), the Bears finished in first out of 16 teams at the LR Fall Invite. Rollins came in second, finishing seven strokes behind LR. The event was held at the Lake Hickory Country Club’s Catawba Springs Course.
Holt Allison took home medalist honors, coming through with rounds of 69-74-70 to finish with a 213 (-3). He was one stroke ahead of King’s Aasmund Norum, who shot a 214 (-2). This is the Newton-Conover grad’s second straight tournament victory, as he was victorious at the Flagler’s Jay Jennison Cup a month ago. Joining Allison on the All-Tournament Team was Sean Finan, who’s rounds of 73-72-72 put him in a tie for fourth with a 217 (+1).
The Bears led the field with a 4.07 (+4) average on par-4’s and a 4.63 (-9) average on par-5’s.
This marks the first tournament win for Tyler Jones, who was named the head coach prior to the season.
