A victory for Lees and two strong showings for Curran on Junior Tour



   Agnes Irwin sophomore Kaitlyn Lees racked up 10 pars in a Philadelphia Section PGA Junior Tour stop at Linfield National Golf Club in cold, blustery conditions Saturday to capture top honors in the 16-to-18 division.
   Lees finished with an 81 over the 5,479-yard, par-71 Linfield National layout to finish eight shots clear of runnerup Sofia Amoroso of West Chester.
   Alyson Rentschler of Hamburg topped the 13-to-15 division with a 96.
   Jonanthan Lumley of Royersford bested the field in the boys 13-to-15 division with a 77.  Andrew Curran, a Media resident and Malvern Prep freshman, posted an 80 to finish in a tie for second with Carson Bacha of York and Alex Mulrooney of Wilmington, Del.
   Hayden Rousselle of Doylestown had the day’s best score with a 5-over 76 in capturing the 16-to-18 division. Radnor junior Jacob Liberman finished in a tie for sixth with an 83.
Hayden Smith of Havertown finished 13th with a 94 and Aidan Vorhees of Broomall was 20th with a 113.
   Joshua Ryan of Norristown topped the nine-holers with a 42.
   It was another strong showing by Curran a day later as temperatures warmed a little Sunday for the final Junior Tour stop of the fall at Ramblewood Country Club in Mount Laurel, N.J.
   Curran carded an 8-over 80 on the 6,538-yard, par-72 Ramblewood layout to finish tied atop the 13-to-15 division with Alec Ryden of Moorestown, N.J. Ryden was awarded the top spot in a match of cards.
   Andrew Miller of Bryn Mawr finished in a tie for fourth with an 84.
   Matthew Rizzo of Manahawkin, N.J. had the day’s best score, a 2-over 74, to win the 16-to-18 division.
   Casey Oppenheimer of Conshohocken won the girls 16-to-18 division with a 96, Eden Richmond of Princeton, N.J. won the 13-to-15 division with a 101 and Nicholas Gross of Downingtown won a match of cards with Darren Nolan of Glenside for top honors among the nine-holers after each fired a 45.
