Martinez Finishes 12th,
Mountaineers Fifth at LMC Invite
Schreiner's men's
golf team finished 5th at the Lon Morris College
Invitational at The Woods at Jacksonville. SU was the
only non-scholarship team in a field that consisted of
several nationally ranked junior colleges.
On the first day of the tournament, all players had to
endure two lightning delays and played most of the round in
cold, rainy and sloppy conditions. Sophomore Arnie
Martinez led the Mountaineers with a 12th place finish
individually. He shot 78 in the miserable weather on
Monday and rebounded with a 73 on Tuesday under much
friendlier conditions.
Freshman Jake Torres shot 81-75 and placed in 24th position.
Another two freshmen, Steven Bell (84-78) and Matt
Schoolcraft (82-83) finished 31st and 36th respectively.
For Schoolcraft, it was his first collegiate competition.
Schreiner shot 325 in the first round and 309 in the final
round. Host Lon Morris College won their own
tournament.
