The Mustang Classic – Putnam Science Academy’s annual golf tournament – got a perfect day of weather and record-setting participation. All in all, a rousing success.
The event, held at Raceway Golf Course on August 12, featured more than 105 golfers in 27 groups, both the most who have played to date. Money was raised in support of the PSA athletics programs.
Tommy Malboeuf, Justin Haapala, Nico Alvas, and Kerry Kubiak were the winning foursome, finishing the best-ball round with a 56. That was one stroke better than second-place team Pete Cunha, Gator Gagnon, Dylan Duval, and Chris Lajoie. Finishing in third place with a 59 were John Darigan, Eric Livingston, Steve Fredette, and Brandon Cardita.
Mackenzie Pothier won the women’s longest drive on 11 while Morgan DaSilva finished closest to the pin on Hole 17, coming just three feet, nine inches from the cup.
On the men’s side, Gagnon capped off a successful day by striking the longest drive, and Shawn Martel landed nine feet from the cup to take home closest to the pin honors.
PSA recognized the tremendous community support for the event as well, as there were six Bronze-level sponsors – Westview Sports Medicine, Gerardi Insurance, Connecticut Baseball Academy, Baker’s Dozen, Kazantzis Real Estate, and PSA Mustangs Baseball – plus more than 30 tee sponsors.
