Ephs tie for 4th at WNEC Invite

SPRINGFIELD, MA – With the clock counting down to the NESCAC Championship to be played at Shuttle Meadow C.C., Kensington, Conn., and hosted by Trinity College April 26 and 27, Eph head coach Rick Pohle is still unsettled on his line-up.

Husson College shot a 307 to win the WNEC Invite and Williams and host WNEC tied four fourth with a team score of 320.

The opening of Taconic Golf Club for the season would be most helpful. Pohle's Ephs need to engage in consistent practice sessions and re-gain the form they established over spring break in Florida.

"We fell victim to large mistakes, which led to wasted shots and shaky putting at today's tournament," commented Pohle. "We can't seem to identify who can play with a great deal of consistency and that can be frustrating as a player and a coach. We have such a short time to see who will step up and carry us into the NESCAC Championship next weekend. In the meantime, we will watch the scores from this weekend's match with Middlebury College and the days leading into the Little Three Championship next week to settle on a line-up that will head to Hartford, CT next Friday."

Senior co-captains Nicholas Nottebohm and Brendan Conley were joined by first year Drew Murray in recording the Ephs' best round today carding a 79. First year Bob Camp shot an 82 and junior Rahul Bahl recorded an 87.
