Men’s Golf Can’t Avoid Last-Place Finish in Ivy League Championships

A combined 298 in the final round at Ballyowen Golf Club in Hamburg, N.J. wasn’t enough for the Harvard men’s golf team to dig out of a last-place finish at the Ivy League Championships this weekend.

Senior Chris Wu shot a team-best 76-71-73—220, which gave him an eighth-place individual finish at the meet.

Junior D.J. Hynes and seniors Matt Amis and Cliff Ryan all improved during their tournament rounds yesterday, finishing 26th, 31st, and 38th, respectively.

Princeton won the Championships with a tournament-record 862—a full 65 strokes ahead of the Crimson.

The Tigers were followed by Cornell (893), Penn (894), Columbia (895), Brown (899), Dartmouth (916), and Yale (919).

Harvard travels to Providence, R.I. for the New England Championships, which will take place Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
