Jacob Macinanti of Lancaster added a 75 Friday to the
sparkling opening round of even-par 70 he fired Thursday to capture top honors
in the boys 13-to-18 division in a Philadelphia Section PGA Junior Tour
Precision Pro Golf Elite Tour event at Philmont Country Club’s North Course.
Macinanti had four birdies in his opening round over the
6,345-yard, par-70 Philmont North layout. He had two birdies, one on each side,
in Friday’s second round to finish up at 5-over 145, four shots clear of
runnerup Gunnar Gale of Trooper. Gale had the best round of Day 2, a 3-over 73
after opening with a 76 for a 149 total. Gale’s round of 73 featured two
birdies, one on each side.
Nathaniel Hiriak (76-74) of Doylestown, Matthew Marino
(75-75) of Malvern and Alex Mulrooney (73-77) of Wilmington, Del. finished in a
tie for third at 150. Mulrooney’s total was also the best among the 13-to-15
players.
Andrew Gallagher of Mount Laurel, N.J. fired an
opening-round 72, trailing Macinanti by just two shots, but fell back with a
second-round 80 to finish alone in sixth place at 152. Penn Charter junior Noah
Schwartz of Cherry Hill, N.J. had rounds of 76 and 78 to finish alone in
seventh place at 154.
Rounding out the top 10 were three players – Andrew Wallace
(76-79) of Narberth, Connor Boham (74-81) of Collegeville and Andrew Simpson (74-81)
of Perkasie – who finished tied for eighth at 155.
Robert Bass of Lafayette Hill captured the men’s 17-to-24
division with rounds of 81 and 76 for a 157 total. A birdie on the 13th
kept the second-round momentum going for Bass. Richard Vanni of Philadelphia
had rounds of 83 and 82 to take second at 165. Vanni really got it going on the
front nine of his second round, making four birdies on his way to a 36.
