Landry earns All-New England honors as Men’s Golf finishes fifth at NEIGA Championships

BREWSTER, Mass. (October 26, 2015) – Senior Travis Landry (Loudon, N.H.) put together his best round of golf on Monday, in the final round of the NEIGA Championships at The Captains Course in Brewster, Mass. Landry topped his score of 77 from Sunday with a 75 (+3) en route to a fifth place individual finish, and helping the Franklin Pierce University Ravens Men's Golf team to that same finish on the team leaderboard.

Landry's finish also helped him to a selection to the All-New England Division II team, the only Raven to make the list. Following Landry on the board was senior Brad Auclair (Cumberland, R.I.) who carded an 82 (+10) to finish in a tie for 22nd. Sophomore Taylor Simpson (Londonderry, N.H.) bested Auclair's score on the day, but couldn't pass him on the leaderboard as he brought an 81 (+9) into the clubhouse to finish in a tie for 25th for the tournament.

Sophomore William Pennington (Heswall, England) couldn't quite replicate his Sunday performance, but was able to bring home an 86 (+14) on Monday to finish in a tie for 28th. Lastly, the final Raven in the field was sophomore Tom Arisco (Cheshire, Conn.) who carded an 85 (+13) to finish in a tie for 31st.

Malcolm Oliver of Bentley came back to win the tournament, shooting a 67 (-5) on the day to finish at two-under, six strokes ahead of Gavin Dugas of Southern New Hampshire. Luckily for Dugas, the Penman took home the team win, as they defeated the Bentley Falcons by four strokes.
