After having had multiple top-ten Greater Cleveland Amateur Championship finishes, Ryan Stefanski of Sagamore Hills finally broke through into the winner’s circle.
Stefanski shot a final round score of 68 on a day that featured off-and-on rain; his only bogey of the day came on the 18th hole with the victory already secured.
Stefanski finished the three rounds at 2-over par to win by three shots over a trio of players who finished at 5-over par:
Doug Barber,
Austin Zoller,
and Jacob Appleby.
Players at 12-over par 225 finished in the top ten and are exempt into the 2017 Cleveland Amateur Championship at Manakiki.
Hats off to Sleepy Hollow superintendent Chad Lewanski and his grounds crew for getting the course ready each day with the challenging weather conditions.
