Penn State retains the Cutter Cup.
October 12, 2010 in 2-year, 4-year
The Cutter Cup came down to the wire as the final group of the day finished out the 18th hole. A win by Penn State on the final hole of the day was the point that resulted in a 2.5 to 2.5 halve and the retaining of the cup by the Nittany Lion team.
This year’s event, hosted by Penn State alum Larry Napora, was played at Firestone Country Club near Akron, OH. Coming off a tough loss for the Penn State football team on Saturday, the students were up at 5AM for the drive to Akron. Following a tour of the maintenance facility by Mr. Napora, the group sat down for a full breakfast at the club before heading out for their matches.
The weather conditions were only surpassed by the excellent conditions of the golf course. In the end, Penn State managed to halve the match and retain the Cup. Thanks to Larry Napora and Michigan State for hosting this year’s event. The overall standing for the cup are 7-6-6 with the advantage to Penn State.
