APALACHIN, NY - The Iona men's golf program competed in the 2024 Matthews Auto Collegiate Invitational at The Links at Hiawatha. Binghamton hosted the 36-hole event. The Gaels finished in a solo fourth place after a lackluster first day. The Maroon & Gold jumped from 13th after day one to finish fourth, their best finish so far this fall.
Sean Richards finished in a tie for tenth place firing in a score of even par over the the two rounds.
Freddie Tucker and
Colin Coogan both competed as individuals today and their scores can not count towards the team's score. Tucker birdied his last hole of the tournament securing his first top-20 finish of his career.
Zach Baldwin, Park Smith, Sahir Baylan, and Coogan all finished inside the top 50. Gaels will end their fall season with one last tournament on Long Island at the Nassau Country Club on Oct. 20-21.
