Team Scores | Individual Scores )
The Elmira College men's golf team finished fourth out of twelve teams in this afternoon's Oswego State Fall Invitational. EC's
Evan Clarke turned in a 71 (E) card which was good enough to earn tournament medalist honors, his first of the fall season.
As a team, the Soaring Eagles had a good day at the Oswego Country Club, shooting a cumulative 314. Clarke led the way with a 71 (E), his third highest score of his three year Elmira College career. Clarke's performance at the Oswego State Fall Invitational should come as no surprise as the third-year standout tied for first place in the same event two years ago.

Ryan Siffermann had the next best score for the Purple and Gold, shooting a 79 on the day.
Bryce Hanson checked-in next for EC with an 80 while
