The Mont Alto Golf team came back from falling to Penn College on their own home course to traveling to Williamsport where they won by eight strokes. "It was a nice win for Mont Alto. Our captain (Chris Rhein) had an off day and the younger guys picked up the slack," Coach Burke explained. "This was Penn College's first loss on their home course in recent memory.
Derrik Brennan had a great round today. It was nice to see him post a tournament low score of 77 on a par 72 course."
