Albion College won its second Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association men’s golf jamboree of the season Wednesday, posting a 291 total at the Wuskowhan Players Club. The Britons earned a six-stroke victory over Hope College and Trine University. Zach Benedict and Scott Merritt tied for third in the individual standings with scores of 71. Mark McLaughlin (pictured at left) posted a 74, good for a tie for ninth in the individual standings. Albion tied Calvin College for second place in the standings for the season. McLaughlin took home the MIAA's sportsmanship award and a an all-MIAA second team certificate.
The Albion College men’s golf team posted the third-lowest score of the day Sunday – 304 – to finish seventh in a field of 10 teams assembled for the DePauw University Small College Classic at the Deer Creek Golf Club in Clayton, Ind. The Britons’ 36-hole total of 619 was just eight strokes higher than the team that finished in third place. Mason Husby (pictured at left) turned in Albion’s low score Sunday, shooting a 74. Mark Buckley and Mark McLaughlin finished the tournament with 36-hole scores of 154. Albion will complete the fall season Wednesday when it returns to the Wuskowhan Players Club in West Olive to complete a Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association jamboree that was rained out.
Mark McLaughlin (pictured at left) and Zach Benedict (pictured at right) posted rounds of 73 and Mason Husby added a 75 to lead Albion College to victory in the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association Jamboree played at The Medalist on Thursday. The Britons' 300 total was nine strokes better than Hope's second place score. It is believed to be the first team win for Albion in a MIAA Jamboree since 1996. McLaughlin, who has shot 73 or better in three of the last four jamborees, has a chance to earn all-MIAA status for the third consecutive year. He boasts the seventh-best average (75.6) in the MIAA and is six-tenths of a stroke behind the player in fifth place.- McLaughlin ties for third in MIAA Jamboree
