Gettysburg finishes first, third
What: The Battle at the Burg in men's golf action
When: Sunday-Monday, Sept. 18-19

THE SKINNY STORY
Gettysburg fired two sub-300 rounds to capture its own Battle at the Burg tournament. The Bullets posted a round of 298 on Sunday, trailing Dickinson by four strokes, before firing Monday's low round by six strokes with a 299 to finish with a 36-hole total of 597 to win by eight strokes.

THE LEADERS
Daniel Suter (Gaithersburg, Md./Milton Academy) led the Bullets with his second consecutive tournament victory to open the fall. He posted a one-over par round of 72 on Sunday and found himself two strokes off the lead before carding a round of 74 on Monday to finish with a two-day score of 146.
Corey Haydu (Doylestown, Pa./LaSalle College) matched Suter both days to finish tied for the individual lead with a 146.
• The duo went to a sudden-victory playoff, starting at Hole No. 18 – a 193-yard, par 3. Haydu missed the green with his tee shot while Suter was on the edge, left of the pin. Suter went on to make par while Haydu had to settle for a bogey, giving Suter the individual medalist honors.
