Knights Continue Hot Streak, Finish 2nd at Preps

The golf team continued to make noise at the championship level as the Knights placed second at the Prep Championships yesterday at the Peddie School.

 

It was a close finish for the title as Gill and Pennington finished over ten strokes ahead of the rest of the field. Ultimately, Pennington won the event with a team score of 321 while the Knights had a score of 324.

 

Having the lowest score on the day was Moritz Weigold ’19, continuing his magnificent senior campaign with a 77. Also having strong scores for GSB was Graeme Hollingshead ’21 (80), Drew Kramer ’20 (81), Nick Policano ’20 (86), and Abhay Puri ’19 (92).

 

“It was a roller coaster week for us with the sectional tournament on Tuesday and then Preps yesterday,” said head coach Mike Cascini. “It was nice to see us have a strong performance after falling a bit short at sectionals. I give a lot of credit to the players for being able to stay focused during a time when we had a week filled with AP exams and finals coupled with the two most important tournaments of the season. As a coach and teacher, I am proud of them for the way they handled the workload.”
