Stasiak claims victory at Lonnie Nielson Invitational

Matt Stasiak of Fox Valley continued his awesome play this summer with a victory at the Lonnie Nielson Invitational on Monday.  The tournament was a 36-hole, modified stableford format, with eagles worth +5, birdies +2, pars 0, bogeys -1, and double bogeys (or more) -3.  Matt finished with two rounds of +6 for a total of +12 for the day, to cap a 2 point victory.  Finishing runner-up was Chris Covelli (Crag Burn) with +10, and in third was Jake Katz (Westwood) at +9.

All three players will be competing in the Porter Cup this week, and appear to be playing well and peaking at the right time.  Good luck to all three players this week!
