 Blue Hens Win First Tournament Since Sept. 1997; Milowe Places Second

 

AVONDALE, PA -- The University of Delaware men's golf team captured its first tournament title since the 1997-98 season Wednesday by winning the Goldey Beacom Invitational at Hartefeld Golf Club.

Delaware freshman Devin Milowe shot a three over par 75 to place second overall and three other Delaware players finished in the top 10 for the Blue Hens. Milowe's second place finish was the highest for a UD player since Terry Maguire won the Scotty Duncan Memorial Tournament April 28-29, 2000.

The Blue Hens' last tournament title came Sept. 18-19, 1997 when Delaware captured the America East conference title.

Delaware shot a team total of 318 to win the tournament ahead of runner-up LaSalle (327), host Goldey Beacom (331), Haverford (368), and University of the Sciences (398.)

Goldey Beacom's Mike Tobiason won the medalist honors after shooting a five under par 67 over the 6,740-yard course. Milowe was second followed by LaSalle's Ed Johnson at 78, teammate Ben Stanzl (78), and teammate B.J. Jaworski (81).
