4/17/07 GOLF - Peters Becomes School's First All-CACC Golfer

PETERS

MIDDLETOWN, Del. -- Freshman Joseph Peters (Barnegat, NJ) became the first Felician College golfer to attain all-conference status, shooting a 77 at the 2007 Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference championship on Tuesday at Frog Hollow Golf Club.

Peters set a school record with his six-over-par round. His total was good for a tie for ninth place; the top ten finishers in the event automatically were named All-CACC. Peters bettered his previous low collegiate round by eight strokes and shaved six strokes off the school record, held by classmate Rob Young (Glendale, NY). The tournament was shortened from 36 to 18 holes by Monday's heavy rain and high winds.

YOUNG

PHILADELPHIA -- The Felician golf team earned the first dual-match victory in program history during a quadrangular meet hosted by Holy Family University at a soggy Torresdale Frankford Golf Club on Wednesday afternoon. The Golden Falcons defeated Chestnut Hill College, 390-396, while losing to the host Tigers, 311-390, and Nyack College, 323-390.

Keying the victory for Felician were season-low rounds from freshmen Rob Young (Glendale, NY/Cathedral Prep) and Joseph Peters (Barnegat, NJ/Southern Regional), who spent much of the afternoon chasing Peters's single-round school record. Young came away with a record 83, eight strokes better than his previous low college round, and two lower than the previous school standard Peters turned in last Saturday. Peters, meanwhile, carded his second 85 of the season.
