Brick Goes Back-to-Back in 2011 Senior Cleveland Am

Defending champion Norton Brick of Elyria started the second round of the 2011 Senior Cleveland Amateur Golf Championship at Big Met Golf Course in Fairview Park with a two stroke lead in the 36-hole event.

He wasted little time increasing that lead — making five birdies and an eagle in his first sixteen holes — and in the process became a back-to-back winner.

With the tournament well in hand, Brick’s bogeyed the final two holes on the day. But his second round score of 35 – 34 = 69 was good for a 7-under par total of 137 and an extremely comfortable four stroke victory.

Wait, comfortable isn’t the right word. Dominant is. Brick dominated the field.

Fred Colli matched Brick’s 69 in the second round to win the 60 and Over Division and finish tied for second in the overall tournament with a 3-under par 141 total.

Colli tied Michael Mintz, who shot a steady 70-71 in what would be considered a solid performance by anyone’s standards, except when compared to the golf Brick played.

Scott Heran finished with an under par total as well, coming in at 2-under 142 for a solo fourth place finish.

Three players tied for fifth at even par 144, including Lorenzo Lanier who finished second in the 60 and Over Division.

Don Rader shot 79 – 76 = 155 to win the 70 and Over Division.
