The inaugural event was held Thursday at Hawk’s Tail Golf Course in Greenfield where Southwestern posted a 20-shot victory over Morristown. Triton Central was incomplete with just three golfers but produced the tournament’s first individual champion.

Branham shot 12-over-par 48 for nine holes Thursday to secure a 4-shot victory over Morristown’s Delaney Cornn (52).
