After a nervous first nine-hole start that left the team 6 over par, the student golfers settled down and shot an impressive even par on the back nine. The team posted a combined score of 76. The team members are: Melvin Butler, Justin Coleman, Tyler James, Christian Jones, Myja Thompson and Chad Warr. Coleman (pictured in mid-swing) won a drawing for a $50 Jos a Bank Clothing Store gift certificate after the game.
