The local qualifying tournament for the 2010 U.S. Amateur golf tournament Monday had a distinctive Mid-American Conference flavor with a heavy dose of Kent State.
Members of the Kent State team won three of the four spots available, with the final spot going to a player from Miami (Ohio). All will play in the U.S. Amateur Aug. 23-29 at Chambers Bay, just outside Tacoma, Wash.
