Andover Ends Hill’s Win-Streak

It had to be the ninth hole, which had been treacherous for Andover all day. With the whole team behind him, Orlando Figus ’16 set up his putt, sank it, gave Andover the 6-5-5.5 win and ended Belmont Hill’s two-year winning streak.

After a reversed 6.5-5.5 loss last season, Andover rebounded to knock off its rivals. Ellie Blum ’15, David Todd ’16 and Figus all took home individual wins, while Co-Captain Kavan Canekeratne ’14 tied his match.

Andover overpowered Belmont Hill in the team matches. Tyler Tsay ’15 and Canekeratne, comprising Team One, and Blum and Alexa Tsay ’17, Team Two, won their matches. Rob Devaney ’14 and Todd, Team Three, and Peter Hahn ’16 and Figus, Team Four, tied their matches.

Andover’s match against Holderness on Wednesday was cancelled because of the unexpected snow storm. The match has been rescheduled for Saturday.
