Peters paces golfers


The men’s golf team placed fifth in the 27-hole John Carroll Invitational at Fowler’s Mill Golf Course at Chesterland, Ohio last Friday, April 2.† Michael Peters ’10 led the team with an 18-hole result of 71 and finished the tournament in 108 strokes, placing him tied for sixth out of 40 golfers in the competition.

Peters began with two over par 37 on the first nine holes, and shot one under par 71 on the final 18.† He was only beat by Malone College’s Justin Lower, the individual medalist for the tournament.

Overall, the Scots scored 568, just 12 strokes more than Walsh University, the fourth-place team.† Malone was the winning team with 413 strokes, and host John Carroll University placed second with 445.

Wooster finished as a solid group, with Blake Sword ’12, Tim Faerber ’12 and Greg Benckart ’12 all shooting 121 for the 27-hole tournament.

Wooster will attend the Ted Barclay Classic in Granville, Ohio this weekend.
