Hugh Corrigan claimed medalist honor sand Ryan Gibson shot a career-low score to lead Independence to a 179-229 win over rival Cuyahoga Heights on Wednesday at Seneca Golf Course.
Corrigan shot a 41 while A.J. Marcinko carded a 44, Mike Jedrzejek finished with a 45 and Gibson rounded out the scoring with a 49.
“I’m very happy with the team score with four solid scores in the 40s,” Independence coach Mark Echstenkamper said. “It’s great to see Corrigan starting to push the 40-barrier, which he should break soon. Jedrzejek and Marcinko each had a good night which is what we need our No. 2 and No. 3 golfers to do to continue to lower our team score.”
Gibson overcame an early-season injury to show rapid improvement over the last couple of weeks.
“He has steadily shown improvement this year after starting the year with a broken finger and has been much more consistent making solid contact with his irons,” Echstenkamper said. “I’m very happy to see him putting it together.”
Kaelib Graaf led Cuyahoga Heights with a 53.
Independence improved to 2-2 overall and 2-1 in league play.
