Erie, Pa. - Mercyhurst posted rounds of 288-291-297 for a 54-hole total of 876 (+12), finishing second behind UMass Amherst, who carded 290-289-292 for 871 (+7) — a five-stroke margin. Mercyhurst's own "B" squad also competed and placed fourth at 886 (+22), giving the program two teams inside the top four.
Individual Highlights
The story of the tournament individually was Mercyhurst B's Ryan Wolk, who fired 71-70-68 for a 209 total (-7) to win medalist honors outright — the low score of the field by five strokes and the only sub-par finish of the tournament.
Mercyhurst's varsity squad was led by:
Malo Jr.'s steady round-one-and-two play (73-72) anchored the lineup, while Carlson's opening 70 in Round 2 was the low round of the day for the varsity group. All five Mercyhurst varsity scorers finished inside the top 20 individually, showing consistent depth across the lineup.
On the B-team side, beyond Wolk's win, Dan Gambone (72-76-73—221, T12) and Tyce McClain (74-77-73—224, T15) also cracked the top 15 individually.
Up next, the men's golf team heads to Vestal, N.Y. for the Binghamton Matthews Auto Collegiate Invitational starting on October 4th ending on October 5th.
