After placing 10th in the 14-team Cornell Invitational the previous weekend, the Fordham University men's golf team travelled to New Haven, Conn. to partake in the MacDonald Cup, a two-day tournament held at the Course of Yale. Entrants in the field included host Yale, Binghamton, Central Connecticut and St. John's.

For the Rams, it was a different weekend but the same result: finishing 10th out of 14 teams with a score of 600 (298-302). St. John's was the winner with a score of a 565, 15 strokes ahead of runner-up Yale (580).

Right behind Yale were Binghamton (582) and Central Connecticut (584).

Sophomore Jason del Rosso was the top finisher on the day, carding a total of 149 (71-78).

Finishing right behind him was fellow sophomore Brody Nieporte, who shot a 150 (76-74). Junior Devon O'Rourke (76-75) and sophomore Connor Monaghan (75-76) finished in a tie for third for Fordham, both carding 151, while freshman Ryan Donahue (82-77) and junior Charles Smith (80-79) finished tied for fifth with a score of 159.

The golf team will next be in action at the Big 5 Classic on Saturday, Oct. 9 and Sunday, Oct. 10 at the Plymouth Country Club in Plymouth Meeting, Pa.
