Fading Fast

 

It hasn't been a very pleasant couple of days for Chance Pipitone. Although the freshman is the first Penn golfer to qualify for the NCAA Championships since Don Norbury did it in 1960, he's well back of the leaders and out of contention. His back-to-back scores of 75 put him at 10-over par through the first two rounds, tying him for 132nd out of 156. The current leader is Bronson LaCassie of Minnesota -- his score of eight-under gives him a two-stroke over Jon Curran of Vanderbilt. Stanford has been the top team so far, with its seven-under par leading Minnesota by one.

But there are still two more rounds to be played, and Pipitone still has a shot at finishing very respectably. Of the 156 players in the field, only 28 are at even-par or better.
