LANCASTER, Pa. Coming off his first career individual championship, senior Hayden Moffat (Hatboro, Pa./Hatboro-Horsham) became the second-straight member of the Gettysburg College men’s golf team to be named the Centennial Conference Athlete of the Week.
After posting a collegiate-low 70 in the final round of the Battle of the Burg Invitational the previous weekend, Moffat equaled his personal best on both days of the Mason-Dixon Collegiate Classic at The Bridges Golf Club on Oct. 9-10. He topped the 75-player field with a four-under 140 (70-70), breaking the previous tournament record by one stroke. The win was also the first time Moffat has captured individual medalist honors in his career.
Moffat followed teammate Cameron Deiuliis (Highland, Md./River Hill) for Athlete of the Week honors in the conference. The senior has the Bullets off to a record start to the 2021-22 campaign with the team capturing three tournament titles and averaging 296.5 strokes per round, nearly seven strokes better than the program’s single-season record. Moffat has recorded three top-five finishes and leads the team with a 72.8 average.
Gettysburg closes out the fall schedule at the Franklin & Marshall College Fall Invitational at the Bent Creek Country Club on Monday, Oct. 8.
