Niko Muego of Bryn Mawr and Ryan Kaye of Lansdale each carded a solid 2-over-par 33 at Walnut Lane Golf Club in northwest Philadelphia to top the field of boys 12-and-under nine-holers in a Philadelphia Section PGA Junior Tour Nine-Hole Series event Aug. 26th.
Muego has been one of the most consistent players in the boys 12-and-under division this summer. He had a Philly Junior Tour victory two days earlier at Philmont Country Club and was the winner of the Philly Junior Tour 12-and-under Championship earlier in August at McCall Golf & Country Club.
Muego had seven pars on his scorecard, opening his round with three straight pars.
Kaye made a birdie at the sixth hole and had five pars on his card, finishing out his round with three straight pars.
Samuel Karas of Blue Bell and Blake Shurman of Villanova shared third place, each ending up two shots behind Muego and Kaye with a 4-over 35.
Karas, the medalist in the boys 12-and-under division a day earlier at Indian Spring Country Club, had five pars on his card, going back-to-back with pars at the fifth and sixth holes and again to finish out his round at eight and nine.
Shurman had five pars on his card, including back-to-back pars at the fifth and sixth holes.
Kash Gray of Eagleville took fifth place with a 36, Michael Antolino of Richboro was sixth with a 38 and Adam Feith of Merion Station and James Schneider of Penn Valley finished in a tie for seventh, each signing for a 39.
Rounding out the top 10 in the boys 12-and-under division were Leonardo Rossi of Ambler and Bennett Cho of Chesterbrook as they finished in a tie for ninth place, each tallying a 41.
Julie Prickitt of Ambler, whose improvement has been noticeable from her most recent results, made a birdie at the seventh hole on her way to a 41 that gave her a Philly Junior Tour victory in the girls 12-and-under division.
Kasey Bell of Wilmington, Del. rounded out a short field in the girls 12-and-under division as she finished in second place with a 51.
