Garnets get it done

I just returned from the Section 1 golf team championship at the Links at Union Vale. Rye prevailed in the three-team match by three shots over host Arlington.
The Garnets (207) were led by John Davies, who shot a 1-over 37. Mark Mumford added a 39, despite making a triple bogey on the first hole.
It was the second straight title for Rye. The match was comprised of the top three teams based on scoring average during the regular season. Scarsdale finished third with a score of 210.
David Spiro led a young Raiders team with a 39. Scarsdale will only graduate one senior from a team that sent seven golfers to sectionals last week, the most of any team in the section by far. In other words, expect them to be right back next year.
As for Rye, this concluded another banner season for the golf program. Half of last year’s starters, including all-everything Max Buckley, graduated, but this year’s team was still able to retain its reign as the top team in the section.
Okay, I’m going to keep it short because it was a long day of golf. But in conclusion, let me just say the Links was a beautiful course and our foursome was very happy we made the trek up there early to play even if the scores weren’t stellar. It was fun to play and then see how the actual golfers did things. I’m looking forward to the same opportunity this weekend at the state championships at Cornell…
I will be back up near there again tomorrow for the CHSAA State Championship at James Baird State Park. I’ll let you know how it goes.
