Our own GWU Golfer Jake Scruggs, R-junior, shot rounds of 68, 61, and a final 65 on Tuesday Oct. 15 to capture the 5th Annual Phoenix Invitational hosted by Elon University. WOW! He won the individual honors by 5 strokes. A Shelby native, Scruggs transferred to GWU from Belmont Abbey.
Gardner Webb also captured the team title, notable since 16 teams participated in the 5th rendition of the event.
Taken from an article written by Bob Sutton for Gatehouse Media.
Jake, too busy to report this significant sports story involving a kid in your own backyard???

Pretty darn impressive showing for GWU tho!

Feature on Jake will be in Wednessday's paper Great, I saw that he had success while at Belmont Abbey too, looking forward to it. Can you link it, not in your area. The article that strangely appeared in our local paper that I referenced was 1/3 page long, crazy! That Jake is a pretty talented golfer by the sound of it, excited to read what you come up with.
