Nationwide Tour Event for Juniors
June 1, 2009
Reprinted from The Gazette
Two dozen of the best high school golfers from Maryland competed Monday morning in the Melwood Prince George's Open High School Invitational. Several county schools were represented in the best ball event at the Country Club at Woodmore in Mitchellville.
Denny McCarthy (Georgetown Prep) won the overall title with a one-over-par 73, and he was a member of the winning quartet that recorded a low round of 64. Myles Handy (DeMatha), Phil Fluke and Olivia Bowling (St. Mary's Ryken) rounded out the foursome. McCarthy had six birdies on the day, good enough to counter five bogeys and one double bogey.
Each member of the winning team was provided with miniature replica trophies of the one that will be presented to the winner of the Melwood Prince George's County Open on Sunday. McCarthy also will receive his trophy Sunday afternoon on the 18th green when the Melwood Open trophy is presented to the winner of the Nationwide Tour event.
Each of the other five remaining groups finished with the identical score of 69. Nicole West (Charles H. Flowers) fired the low round among girls with a 79, which was good for fourth overall. West and teammates Jason Clatworthy (St. Vincent Pallotti), Jason Park (Eleanor Roosevelt) and Max Farrington (Archbishop Spalding) made up one of the groups.
Gavin Thompson (Flowers) was in the same group with individual runner-up Josh Eure (South River), James Fitzgerald (Gonzaga) and Mary Reynolds (St. John's). Gabriella Sinkovic (Bowie) was in the same quartet with Sean Bosdosh (Covenant Life), Garrett Harding (South River) and Chris Biggins (Atholton). Kevin Poole (Pallotti) had initially been scheduled to play but opted out last week.
