Southern Illinois claims team crown in Kingsmill Intercollegiate; St. Joe's finishes ninth


   The Kingsmill Intercollegiate at the Kingsmill Resort’s River Course in Williamsburg, Va. proved to be a popular destination for teams trying to get ready for their conference championships later this spring.
   There were 24 teams and more than 120 players teeing it up and Saint Joseph’s and Drexel, separated by a shot, got in the top half of the field, the Hawks finishing ninth and the Dragons ending up tied for 10th with George Washington. Drexel’s Colonial Athletic Association rival, Delaware, finished 15th.
   St. Joe’s, led by freshman Wills Montgomery, a former Downingtown East standout, was consistent with a pair of 16-over 286s Sunday and Monday over the 6,794-yard, par-70 River Course layout before finishing up with an 18-over 298 for a 50-over 890 total.
   Drexel was playing without senior Aaron Fricke, the Garden Spot product who claimed the individual title in the City 6 Championship at the Union League Golf Club at Torresdale last fall. The Dragons opened with a 301 and added a 292 before matching St. Joe’s 298 final round to finish a shot behind the Hawks at 891.
   Delaware got a little better in each round, the Blue Hens opening with a 301 and adding a 298 before finishing up with a 296 for an 898 total.
   Williamsburg was not quite far enough south to avoid the stubborn grip that winter has had on the Mid-Atlantic region as cold-weather gear was in order.
   Southern Illinois, No. 122 in the latest Golfstat rankings, captured the team title behind individual winner Peyton Wilhoit, a junior from Searcy, Ariz. After opening with a 293, the Salukis fired a 4-over 284 Monday’s second round and finished up with a 5-over 285 to overtake No. 154 Utah Valley with a 22-over 862 total.
   Utah Valley held a narrow one-shot edge on Southern Illinois going into the final round after rounds of 7-over 287 and 9-over 289. Utah Valley’s final-round 290 enabled the Salukis to make up five shots in the final round.
   No. 141 Loyola of Maryland finished up with an 8-over 288 to take thirds at 869, three shots behind Utah Valley. It was another six shots back to No. 168 Seton Hall in fourth at 875, the Pirates finishing up with their best round of the week, a 6-over 286. No. 152 Old Dominion also finished up with its best round of the week, a 9-over 289, to take fifth at 877, two shots behind the Hall.
   After opening with a 4-over-par 74, Wilhoit got it going with a 2-under 68 in Monday’s second round before finishing up with a sparkling 4-under 66, the best round of the tournament, in Tuesday’s final round for a 2-under 208 total and a three-shot margin over the rest of the field.
   Wilhoit was backed up by teammate Hunter York, a junior from Decatur, Ill. who finished in a group tied for seventh at 5-over 215. York contributed a 1-under 69 to the Salukis’ final-round surge to the team title.
   Also for Southern Illinois, Frankie Thomas snuck into the top 20 as he finished tied for 19th at 9-over 219 following a final round of 74. Luke Gannon, a junior from Bel Aire, Kan., finished tied for 30th at 222, including an even-par 70 in the second round. Dirk Kuehler, a senior from New Smyrna Beach, Fla., finished in a group tied for 90th at 232, although his 3-over 73, a 10-shot improvement on an opening-round 83, was a key counter for the Salukis in the second round.
   Loyola of Maryland’s Brendan Peel, a sophomore from Potomac, Md., and St. Bonaventure’s Brent Morgan, a junior from Coal Grove, Ohio, shared second place at 1-over 211, three shots behind Wilhoit.
   After opening with a 1-over 71, Peel matched par in each of the last two rounds. Morgan finished up with one of what was only a handful of sub-par rounds over the River Course, a 1-under 69.
   Old Dominion senior Brad Hess, a product of Parkland High School, finished alone in fourth at 2-over 212. Hess held a one-shot lead heading into the final round after opening with a 2-under 68 and adding a 72 in Monday’s second round before finishing up with another 2-over 72.
   The chilly weather didn’t seem to bother a couple of Canadians as Utah Valley senior Blair Bursey and Eastern Michigan freshman Ty Celone shared fifth place at 3-over 213, both finishing up with a solid 1-under 69.
   Montgomery posted a pair of 2-over 72s in the first two rounds before finishing up with a 75 for a 9-over 219 as he led the way for Saint Joseph’s by finishing tied for 19th. Michael O’Brien, a sophomore from West Chester, Ohio, bounced back from an opening-round 80 by matching par in the second round with a 70 and then finishing up with a 73 to join the group tied for 35th at 223.
   Sophomore Reed Winkler, a former Salesianum standout, got a piece of the opening-round lead with a sparkling 2-under 68 before struggling to an 80 in Monday’s second round and finishing up with a 76 to end up in a group tied for 43rd at 224.
   Junior Ross Pilliod, a Berks Catholic product (and occasional Stonewall looper), finished tied for 72nd at 229 after his best round of the tournament, a 4-over 74, in Tuesday’s final round. Sophomore Richard Riva, a Lancaster Catholic product, rounded out the St. Joe’s lineup as he finished among the group tied for 90th at 232 after a final-round 77.
   The Hawks appear on track to perhaps improve on their 11th-place finish in the Atlantic 10 Championship last spring.
   In the absence of Fricke, Drexel was led by sophomore Connor Schmidt, a member of Peters Township’s 2015 PIAA Class AAA runnerup team who finished in the group tied for 30th at 12-over 222. After opening up with 79, Schmidt posted solid rounds of 71 and 72.
   Sophomore Alex Butler, a member of the 2014 PIAA Class AAA championship team as a junior at St. Joseph’s Prep, finished in a group tied for 35th at 223. Butler sandwiched a 73 in Monday’s second round with a pair of 75s. Adam Mistretta, a senior from Livermore, Calif., finished tied for 43rd at 224 after adding a final-round 76 to a pair of 74s.
   Angelo Giantsopou, a freshman from Canada who qualified for match play in last summer’s U.S. Junior Amateur at Flint Hills National Golf Club in Andover, Kan., finished in a group tied for 51st at 226 after a final-round 75. Rounding out the Dragons’ lineup was Jeffrey Cunningham, a freshman from West Palm Beach, Fla. who finished tied for 101st at 233, although his opening-round 76 was a counter for Drexel.
   Leading the way for Delaware was senior Blaine Lafferty, a former Cherokee High standout who finished tied for 16th at 8-over 218. After opening with a 75, Lafferty had solid rounds of 71 and 72 Monday and Tuesday.
   Jack Gianniny, senior from Pittsford, N.Y., and Christian Chapman, a freshman from Victor, N.Y., both landed in the group tied for 66th at 228. Gianniny carded a final-round 76 while Chapman finished up with a 74.
   Sophomore Jack Melville, a former Upper Dublin standout, finished tied for 72nd at 229 after sandwiching an 81 with a pair of 74s. Rounding out the Delaware lineup was Kieran Purcell, a senior from Jersey City, N.J. who finished in the group tied for 90th at 232 after a final-round 78.
