94th Ernest Pieper Jr. Santa Clara County Championship

Results from 93rd Championship

 

Kevin Velo, SJCC Junior Merit Member, senior at San Jose State University, won the 93rd Ernest Pieper Jr. Santa Clara County Championship with rounds of 63-65-71=199.

 

Kevin started the tournament on fire, opening with a 7-under par 63, and then continued his dominance over the field with a 5-under par 65 in Sunday's AM round. Kevin's first round 63 was the lowest single round score of this year's Championship, and his second round tied for the second lowest with Ryan Knop's (Auburn University) first round score and Ryan Grauman's (St. Mary's University) third round score.

 

Kevin's final round 71 was strong enough to give him a 5-shot victory over Ryan Grauman of St. Mary's University (204).

 

Our Senior Flight Champion, Corey West of Green Hills CC, shot 71-72=143 to edge out past Champion, Casey Boyns, who shot 74-73=147.

 

In our Super Senior Flight, Ron Johnson beat past Champion, Frank Pieper, by two shots with rounds of 74-75=149.

 

Congratulations to our Champions:

Championship Division ~ Kevin Velo (63-65-71=199)

Senior Division ~ Corey West (143)

Super Senior Division ~ Ron Johnson (149)
