Junior Mike Tobiason (Wilmington, DE) ? the 2004 CACC Golfer of the Year ? captured the individual crown with a two-day total of 152 (+8), two shots better than Calum Malcolm of Post University (+10). For his efforts, Tobiason was also named CACC Golfer of the Week.

GBC sophomore Steve Cutler (Kennett Square, PA) was the next highest finisher in 19th place at +21 (165), followed in a tie for 42nd place by senior Michael Clair (Landenberg, PA) at +31 (175), junior Nick Nardo (Newark, DE) in a tie for 44th place at +32 (176), and freshman Mark Agnew (Newark, DE) in a tie for 47th place at +33 (177).

The Lightning were set to compete against Dowling College in New York this past Sunday. At press time, no results were available.

Softball: The Goldey-Beacom College softball team posted a 3-1 record last week to climb to within two games of .500 at 7-9 following a win over Felician College and a doubleheader sweep of West Chester University.

Freshman Megan Harper (Atco, NJ) drove in the game-winning RBI in the bottom of the ninth in the team?s 1-0 win over Felician College and in a 6-5 win in game one against West Chester. Classmate Jillian Murphy (Wilmington, DE), junior Lori Knabb (Paulsboro, NJ) and senior Holly Kimble (Millsboro, DE) also drove in runs last week.

Freshman Kendra Russell (New Castle, DE) was stellar on the hill, allowing just two runs in 16.2 innings of work en route to earning her third and fourth wins of the season. She struck out 11 and did not walk a batter.

The Lightning return to action this Thursday when they travel to Maryland to take on Columbia Union College in a non-conference doubleheader set to begin at 4 p.m.
