Monson, Warriors Second at Logan Invite

Marion, Ill. -- IHCC sophomore Luke Monson and the Indian Hills team were both second at this week's John A. Logan Fall Invitational, by almost identical margins.

Monson finished as the runnerup medalist, three shots behind Mississippi Gulf Coast's Hayes Weathersby; and the Warriors ended up four strokes in back of the host school for the team title.

Monson followed up a first-round one-over par 72 with a 75 to finish at 147. 

Indian Hills trailed John A. Logan by four shots after the first day and the two longtime rivals shot matching 307s in the second round when the conditions were much tougher.

The Warriors had all six of their golfers finish in the top 13.  Sophomore Colin Pearson, who was the meet medalist in the season-opening Newman Fall Invitational, tied with teammate George Trujillo, a freshman, for 8th place.

A pair of freshmen, Greg Stanek and Jakob Garstecki, wound up in a 10th place tie, and frosh Harrison Moore tied for 13th. 

Indian Hills will take part in the Eagle Golf Classic in Marion, Iowa on Oct. 6 and 7.
