Herzig’s 67 Fuels Third Place Finish
APALACHIN, N.Y. – Robbie Herzig's second-round 67 vaulted him to a third-place finish in the Matthews Auto Collegiate hosted by Binghamton at the Links at Hiawatha Landing. Colgate stayed put as a team, finishing tied with Siena for sixth place on the leaderboard.
Herzig's five-under 67 gave him a two-day total of 139 (-5) after firing an even par on Sunday. The senior cupped six birdies in the closing round to tie Iona's Sean Richards for the lowest single-round score in the tournament.
