Golfer Anthony Naples Wins Boys Suffolk County Individual Championship
Miller Place High School Senior Anthony Naples won first place at the Suffolk County Individual Golf Championship after two days of competition at the Spring Lake Golf Course in Middle Island.
Anthony shot par 72 on the first day, putting him tied for fourth place. Day 2 was met with rain and harsh weather, but Anthony persisted through and shot a 1-over par 73. He came back three shots from behind to tie for first place with a 145, 36-hole aggregate.
The competition came down to a one-hole playoff. Anthony won a tee flip and drove his tee shot 280-yards down the fairway on the way to making par to win the outright title.
“We’re very proud of Anthony’s accomplishment in the Suffolk County Individual Championship. Congratulations to Anthony on such a great achievement,” said Superintendent of Schools Seth Lipshie.
