Moravian Results

• Graduate student Thomas Lakata led the field of 75 golfers, turning in a two-under 69 on the par 71 course, which earned himself medalist honors on a tiebreaker on the fourth playoff hole.

Lakata recorded four birdies and two bogeys in his best round during his tenure with the Blue and Grey

• Finishing tied for 21st was junior Andrew Hozza after shooting a 76 with three birdies and nine pars
• Graduate student Nick Kuhn rounded out the scorers for the Blue & Grey after finishing with a 79. Kuhn finished tied for 33rd after recording 11 pars and one birdie
• Freshman Jason Koch carded an 83 to be tied for 55th after making eight pars

Quotable

• "I am very proud of how the guys played today," commented Head Golf Coach Kevin Edwards. "It was a very strong field and was a tough weather day with the wind. To shoot another sub-300 round shows how balanced we are this year."
