Notre Dame's Marmorstein a shore thing at Avalon



   Havertown’s Brianna Marmorstein, a sophomore on Notre Dame’s Inter-Ac League powerhouse, fired an 86 at Avalon Golf Club Thursday to top the 13-to-15 age group for her first Philadelphia Section PGA Junior Tour victory.
   Marmorstein finished three shots ahead of Casey Oppenheimer of Conshohocken. A thunderstorm early in the day delayed play before the junior golfers headed out for a 2 p.m. shotgun start.
   In the boys 13-to-15 division, D.J. Colleran of Radnor posted a 4-over 75 over the 6,272-yard, par-71 Avalon layout to finish in a tie for third. Austin Barbin had a 1-under 70 to top the division.
   Also in the division, Tyler Zimmer of Bryn Mawr finished in a tie for fifth with a 78, Cortie Fischer of Villanova and Stephen Anthony Schreder of Radnor finished in a tie for 15th with 85s, Joseph Dugery of Haverford was alone in 19th place with an 88, James Quinn of Radnor was in a tie for 20th with an 89 and Joe Hayden of Havertown finished in a tie for 22nd with a 92.
   Davis Rosato of Villanova went 1-under on the back nine at Avalon on his way to a 2-over 73 that gave him the top spot in the 16-to-18 division.
   Luke Shevlin of Thornton and Conor Rinehart of Radnor shared third place at 76, Jimmy Murray of Springfield finished in a tie for seventh with an 82, Ryan Brennan of Media was another shot back in 10th with an 83 and Joseph Dougherty of Drexel Hill finished in a tie for 12th with an 85.
   Among the nine-holers, Darren Nolan of Glenside was the medalist with a 42. Charlie Bastian of Media finished in a tie for third with a 48, Ryan Garvey of Media finished in a tie for fifth with a 54 and Charlie and Matthew Hurchalla (I’m going to go ahead and guess that they’re brothers) of Wallingford finished eighth and ninth with a 55 and 61, respectively.
   Camille O’Halloran of Northfield, N.J. won the girls 16-to-18 division in a match of cards with Marybelle Daclan of Galloway, N.J. after both carded 4-over 75s.

Merion's Bradbeer takes second at Makefield Highlands



   Merion Golf Club’s Peter Bradbeer did all he could, firing a 6-under 66 Wednesday at Makefield  Highlands Golf Club in the second round of a Philadelphia Section PGA Junior Tour Elite Tour event, but it wasn’t enough to catch William Mitchell of Moorestown, N.J.
   Mitchell had a 66 of his own in the first round and never took his foot off the pedal. He settled for a second-round 71 over the 6,516-yard, par-72 Makefield Highlands layout, but made seven birdies in the round. His 7-under 134 total gave him the title in the boys division by three shots over Bradbeer, who had an opening-round 74 before his sparkling no-bogey 66 for a 4-under 140 total.
   The Elite Tour events don’t break the divisions down by age groups, so all the 13-to-18-year olds are competing against each other.
   Davis Flannery of Radnor finished up strong with a second-round 76 and was alone in 33rd place at 163 and David Hurly of Newtown Square had rounds of 86 and 81 to finish in a tie for 35th at 167.
Theresa Luu of Mullica Hill, N.J. was a runaway winner among the girls with rounds of 81 and 80 for a 161 total. Chloe Niu (86-93) of Gladwyne and Joanie Gannon (89-90) of Lansdale finished tied for second, 18 shots behind Luu at 179.

Big day for GollfTEC guys Kogelman, Napoletano



   It was a pretty good day for the guys from GolfTEC in King of Prussia as the Lehigh Valley Open wrapped up Tuesday at Northampton Country Club.
   Joe Kogelman fashioned a second straight 5-under 67 for a 10-under 134 total to edge Billy Stewart, an assistant pro at The ACE Club and John DiMarco of Laurel Creek Country Club by a shot and claim his first title in a two-day Philadelphia Section PGA event.
   “I had been playing pretty well leading up to this event,” Kogelman told the Philadelphia PGA website. “I have  been practicing a lot and I was confident in my game. I thought if I could get to double digits (under par), I might have a chance to win.”
   Kogelman’s colleague at GolfTEC in King of Prussia, Cardinal O’Hara product Anthony Napoletano, wasn’t bad either as he posted a pair of 69s to finish in a tie for fifth at 6-under 138.
   Stewart, a product of the Llanerch Country Club junior program, shared the opening-round lead with Deerwood Country Club pro Greg Farrow after both fired 7-under 65s Monday. Stewart added a 70 to get his share of second with DiMarco while Farrow posted a 71 to finish alone in fourth at 8-under 136.
   Joining Napoletano in the tie for fifth were Josh Rackley (69-69), the Gulph Mills Golf Club assistant pro who has been playing at a high level all season, and Jakob Gerney (67-71) of Trump National Golf Club Philadelphia.
   Merion Golf Club head of instruction Mark Sheftic (72-71), M Golf Range instructor Stu Ingraham (71-72) and Radnor Valley Country Club head pro George Forster (69-74) were among a group of six players tied for 27th at 1-under 143.
   Concord Country Club head pro Mike Moses (72-72) was in a tie for 33rd at even-par 144 and Overbrook Golf Club head pro Eric Kennedy (72-73) was in a tie for 36th at 1-over 145.

Dolan, Svigals earn spots in Pennsylvania Open field



   With the Pennsylvania Open scheduled to be held Aug. 10-12 at Rolling Green Golf Club, there were a lot of Delco players with an eye on earning a spot in the field at the William Flynn classic in Springfield when a qualifier was staged July 16 at Radnor Valley Country Club.
   And a number of them did indeed earn the right to tee it up in the Pennsylvania Open,  including three players with Rolling Green ties who got in right on the number at 4-over 74.
   Quinn Dolan, the two-time Bonner-Prendergast All-Delco, is headed for his freshman year at Notre Dame, but he’ll get a shot at playing on his home course in the Pennsylvania Open after just getting in with his 74 at Radnor Valley. Joining him at that number were fellow Rolling Green member Matthew Bastian and, representing the pro shop at Rolling Green, Chris Hoyle, a member of Haverford High’s powerful golf teams under Tom Lallone in the mid-1990s.
   Former Episcopal High standout Bobby Svigals, who completed a solid career at Franklin & Marshall last spring, had the home-course advantage at Radnor Valley and fired a 1-over 71 to finish in a tie for fourth, two shots back of qualifying medalist John Barrone of Dunmore.
   Media’s John Allen, who is working out of the Huntingdon Valley Country Club pro shop, and Broomall’s T. Jay Fairlie were also in the group with Svigals at 1-over 71. Radnor High All-Delco Carey Bina, like Svigals a Radnor Valley member, got in with 72. Another All-Delco, Marple Newtown’s Sam Soeth, was also in the group at 72, along with Aronimink Golf Club’s Michael Davis, the former Malvern Prep standout who was the runnerup to Cole Berman in the Philadelphia Amateur earlier this summer.
   Soeth spent a year in the golf management program at Coastal Carolina in Myrtle Beach, S.C., but was not on the golf team. Sounds like he’s planning to scratch his competitive itch by coming home to join Brian Quinn’s program at Temple. Soeth mentioned that possibility at the Philadelphia Amateur earlier this summer and likely future teammate Brandon Matthews said Soeth was headed to North Broad Street after Matthews won his second Philadelphia Open title at the Philadelphia Cricket Club’s Wissahickon Course last week.
   Overbrook Golf Club pro Eric Kennedy didn’t have far to travel to make the Pennsylvania Open field as he carded a 73 across Route 320 from Overbrook at Radnor Valley.
   Svigals and Dolan were at it again earlier this week as they earned spots in the Golf Association of Philadelphia’s final major of the season, the Patterson Cup, in a qualifier Monday at Whitford Country Club.  The Patterson Cup will be held Aug. 6 and 7 at Chester Valley Golf Club, once the site of a regular Champions Tour stop.
   Svigals matched par at Whitford with a 72 to finish in a tie for third. Millersville senior Robby Rowe claimed medalist honors with a 3-under 69 and Edgmont Country Club’s Nick Calabrese finished alone in second with a 1-under 71.
   Joining Svigals at 72 were Michael Rogers of Overbrook and Peter Bradbeer of Merion Golf Club. Overbrook veteran Oscar Mestre was at 74. The group at 75 included Rolling Green’s Dolan, Bradbeer’s brother J.B. and Overbrook’s Mac Ryan, Dolan’s former Catholic League rival at St. Joseph’s Prep.
   Making the cut for the Patterson Cup right on the number at 4-over 76 were Erik Reisner, the two-time Central League champion at Harriton, and Fraser Graham of Rolling Green.
   Berman, the two-time Daily Times Player of the Year at Haverford School, will be the defending Patterson Cup champion.  After winning the title a couple of months after graduating from Haverford School, Berman went on to win his first collegiate start at Georgetown and then came home this summer and earned a second GAP major by capturing the BMW Philadelphia Amateur crown at Llanerch Country Club.
