Senior Sam Russell continued his incredible senior season Saturday, posting his first collegiate hole-in-one at the DePauw Small College Golf Classic. Russell aced the 14th hole at the Deer Creek Golf Club.
Russell finished with a 78 after picking up his ace on the 167-yard par-3 hole. He scored a 159 (78-81) over the two days of the tournament to finish tied for 34th. Russell suffered serious injuries during the summer after falling nearly 300 feet while climbing Teewinot Mountain in Wyoming.
Luke Moton shot a 160 (78-82) to tie for 36th place individually. Kyle Nagdeman tied for 43rd (82-81--163), while Jordan Koch tied for 47th (79-85--164).
The Little Giants were eighth in the ten-team field with a total of 645 strokes. The event was the last of the fall season for the Wabash golf team.
