Nick Visconti shot a two day total of 162 to finish 5th at the Region III Men’s Golf Championships at Timber Banks Golf Course in Baldwinsville, NY. The 5th place finish earned Visconti a spot at the 2019 NJCAA Men’s Golf National Championships, which will be held next month.

Visconti, a freshman from Little Falls, has had an outstanding first year with the Generals, which included him finishing in first place at the Cayuga CC tournament on April 12th as well as the Jefferson CC invitational on April 26th. Coach Rick Salamone said, “Nicky shined at the regional championships despite the cold, wet weather. He has led our team all season and has really earned this spot at nationals.”

The 2019 National Championship Tournament will be hosted by Jamestown Community College and be held at Chautauqua Golf Course from June 3rd-5th.
