GLADSTONE, N.J. - Lafayette's golf team earned another dramatic victory over Lehigh at renowned Hamilton Farm Golf Club to reclaim the President's Cup, defeating the arch rivals by a score of 8.5 points to 7.5 points. Junior Patrick Luther and sophomore Jared Mactas won the final two singles matches to seal the Leopards' victory.
The day-long event featured a Ryder Cup-style format. Play began in the morning on the 7,140-yard, par-72 Highlands Course with three better ball nine-hole doubles matches. Lafayette claimed an early 2.5-1.5 lead in the morning matches. The second nine holes in the morning featured doubles play with an alternate shot format. Play was even through alternat shot and the Leopards held a 4.5-3.5 lead after the morning matches.
The afternoon session featured eight singles matches on the Hickory Course, the only 18-hole, USGA-rated par-three course in the country. Lehigh won four of the first six singles matches to take a slim lead and set up the dramatic finish in the final two matches.
This was the fourth annual President's Cup match. Lafayette and Lehigh have split the matches, with the Leopards winning the cup in 2012 and 2014.
