Canisius junior Mikey Takacs shot a two-over score of 74 in the final round to earn a tie for 27th as the Golden Griffins closed out the last day of the Alex Lagowitz Mermorial tournament Sunday at Colgate’s Seven Oak Golf Club in Hamilton, N.Y.
Takacs, who shot a one-over par score of 73 in the first round on Saturday, finished the 54-hole event with a score of 222 (+6) to serve as the Griffs’ top individual performer in the first tournament of the fall season. Freshman Cole Thompson posted a score of 73 in the final round and finished his first collegiate tournament with a score of 226 (+10). Earlier on Sunday, Thompson closed out the second round of the tournament, which was suspended due to darkness on Saturday, with a two-under score of 70. In that round, Thompson carded six birdies, with five of those six birdies coming in his first seven holes of the round.
As a team, Canisius placed 14th with its tournament team score of 902. Lehigh won the team title with a score of 856, which was seven strokes better than second-place Seton Hall. Lehigh’s Noah Zyung won individual medalist honors after he shot a six-under 66 in the final round for a three-round total of 207.
Canisius will return to action Sept. 15-16 when the Blue and Gold travels to Omaha, Neb., to take part in the Bluejay Invitational, hosted by Creighton.
