It was an incredibly successful weekend for Saint Mary's rising sophomore, Aidan Lee, who won the prestigious Memorial Amateur Championship in Carmichael, Calif. The event, founded in 1998, is a 54-hole stroke play tournament for amateurs from all across the region.
Lee captured his first career victory thanks to a staggering seven birdies in his closing 12 holes at Ancil Hoffman Golf Course. The bogey-free 65 was the lowest score of the tournament, and one of just three sub-70 rounds on Memorial Day. Ancil Hoffman Golf Club, is a classical tree-lined course situated above the American River that can be stretched out to just over 7,000 yards.
