Sterling – In another show of the Falcon’s team’s depth, the Briar Woods Falcons defeatged Park View by 21 strokes in a nine hole match at Algonquin – 154 to 175.

Bailey closed the scoring four with a 41. Ryan Geckler carded a 44 after being beaned by a wayward shot (medical attention not required, but a nice souvenir, nonetheless).

Shot of the day for BW went to Ethan Ochs with a 4 iron from just over 200 yards on the 6th hole to put him within putting range of an eagle.

Jake Wilton and Sam Ryan each shot 42 for Park View. Josh Carter (45) and Trevor Scales (48) rounded out the Patriots scoring.
