Waubeeka—The last time a score of 66 appeared on the leader board in the 36-hole Men’s Allied Individual, it propelled Wyantenuck’s Andy Congdon to one of his six victories in the county’s most prestigious event.
“Everyone asked me how I shot 66,” the 53-year old Congdon recalled. “I told them, ‘I three-putted twice.”
Eighteen-year old Davis Mullany matched Congdon’s score and edged him on the leader board at Waubeeka Golf Links yesterday on his way to becoming the tournament’s first teenage winner since Josh Shepard in 2001.
Mullany, a member at Wyantenuck, fired a career best 6-under par 66 despite a trio of three-putts in the morning round. His 66, the only sub-70 score in the Allied since 2004, gave him a five-shot lead.
In the afternoon, he used up most of that cushion, making four bogeys against just one birdie to shoot 75. But his closest pursuer, Waubeeka’s Chris Baran, followed up his 71 with an 82. Only Andy Congdon, who trailed Mullany by seven shots after the morning, broke par in the second round. He shot 71 for an even par 144 total, which left him three shots shy of Mullany.
“It’s not nice finishing second,” said Congdon, who ran second to Donnie Troy last year and lost in a playoff to Dave Bond in 2004. “But Davis just has everything. He hits the driver a long way. And he’s got an excellent short game.”
Mullany earned 300 Men’s Player of the Year points and moved to 4th in the standings.
“It’s a great tournament to win,” said Mullany, who will enter Dartmouth College as a freshman in three weeks. “[My game’s] been close. I just haven’t put everything together in a tournament.”
Current Player of the Year point leader Donnie Troy shot 80-73 and tied for 10th.
Wyantenuck won the 18-hole team championship by 13 shots with a score of 214.
Allied Net Results:
Wyantenuck’s Joe Soudant and Skyline’s Bill Gates shot matching 4-under par 66s and shared the Allied Individual Net title at Wyantenuck. It took a score of 72 or better to earn prizes.
