Marmon Ties for First, Leads SBCC's Solid Start to Men's Golf Season

LOMPOC, Calif. – SBCC men's golfer Gabe Marmon shot a 150 to earn a share of first place in the season-opening Pt. Conception Open at La Purisima Golf Course.

The Cheyenne Mountain High School graduate was neck-at-neck with a pair of Canyons golfers on both days. He fired a 73 to finish in a tie atop the pack with Canyons' Magnus Hansen on the first day of competition Sunday. On Monday, the Cougars' Paul Hautborg shot a 76, just one stroke better than Marmon for the day, to finish in a tie for first.
