(Bristol, IL) – Waubonsee Community College hosted the opening match of the 2021 Illinois Skyway Collegiate Conference (ISCC) Men's Golf season on a sweltering hot Wednesday afternoon at Blackberry Oaks Golf Course.

Moraine Valley Community College placed second with a total of 327, while Waubonsee finished third in the team standings with a score of 344.

Trevor Meyer paced Waubonsee's golfers, firing a 6-over par 78 to finish third overall on the leaderboard. The freshman from Batavia posted a 37 on the front nine and a 41 on the backside of the course. Sophomore Tony LoPresti carded a 12-over par 84 overall. The Aurora Central Catholic High School product finished with a 43 on the front nine holes before tallying a 41 on the back nine.
