The theory that a course like Sleepy Hollow, with it’s steep greens, ravines and quirks, needs to be played a few times to get the hang of it was totally disproven this weekend.
Jared Wilson, having never stepped on the course until yesterday, earned a two-shot victory at the Sleepy Hollow Course Championship. Wilson’s rounds of 72-77 for 149 edged James Weikamp and former champion Ryan Stefanski who finished at 151.
Wilson graduated earlier this year from Columbiana High School and will playing on a scholarship for Wake Forest in the fall. Wilson was the State Champion in Division III his junior and senior year.
Scores were clearly on the high side this year as the cut line to make the Greater Cleveland Amateur was 163, the highest 36-hole total in the history of the event.
Thanks to all of players who competed. We will see all of the qualifiers in a few weeks at Sleepy Hollow for Greater Cleveland Amateur Championship…
