ANNVILLE, Pa. - The Lebanon Valley College golf team will try to come out on top as it competes at the 2009 Commonwealth Conference Championships at nearby Blue Ridge Country Club in Harrisburg on Sunday and Monday.
Tee times are set for 1:30 p.m. on Sunday and 8:30 a.m. on Monday. Eighteen holes of golf will be played each day. The team champions will receive an automatic berth to the NCAA Division III Championships.
The Dutchmen will return to the course for the second time in a week after placing sixth at the Messiah Falcon Invitational on Tuesday at the par-72 Blue Ridge. LVC was third among CC schools at that event, just two strokes behind Elizabethtown and eight back of Messiah.
LVC is hoping to catch an upswing in what has been an up-and-down spring, highlighted by a second-place finish at the LVC Spring Invitational with a season-low 323.
Junior
Steve Garby, 12th individually a year ago, holds LVC's lowest average this year with an 81.3, including a season-low 75 and and three top-10 finishes. Consistency is the key behind him, with the rest of LVC's everyday players clustered in the mid-80s, including senior
Mike Krajnik (84.8), who will try to improve upon his seventh-place individual finish at the 2008 CC Championship.
Charlie Fisher has had a solid spring, averaging 85.6, and
Brian Moskevich (86.4) and
Joe Jablonski (87.4), along with
Matt Snyder (88.5), have been consistent scorers for the Dutchmen.
