Three Avon golfers finish in top 20 of New England tournament

KEENE, N.H. – Three Avon High golfers earned top 20 finishes at last week’s New England golf championships at Bretwood Golf Course.

Avon’s Michael Hanratty was tied for sixth with a one-over-par 73 while Tyler Hahn tied for 15th with a four-over 76. Cole Hahn was tied for 17th with a five-over 77.

Maine’s Logan Thompson, a four-time Class C – the small school division – state champion, won the New England tournament with a 68, beating Xavier’s Chris Fosdick, the Connecticut State Open champion, by one stroke. Thompson had six birdies to win the championship.

Hanratty was the third golfer from Connecticut behind Fosdick (69) and Coginchaug’s Tyler Woodward, who shot a 71.

A year ago, Tyler Hahn shot a 69 to finish in a three-way for second place in this tournament.

The girls tournament was won by Jordan Laplume of Thorton Academy in Maine with a 73 and a one stroke victory. She will go to Merrimack this fall.

The Maine golfers stayed sharp throughout the spring. Maine’s high school golf season is in the fall.
