Greenville cruises to victory after big Saturday lead...

Spartanburg still leads the overall series 4-3 dating back to 2004.  

"We are happy to have regained the Cup and it was very satisfying to win every session over such a good Spartanburg team" Greenville captain Whit Suber stated after receiving the prestigous Cup. Spartanburg Co-captains Brian Kennedy & Max Fain said while the competion is intense, the teams are playing with a higher calling. Kennedy said "All the guys want to win these matches, but hopefully the real winners were the kids that have the opportunity to participate in The First Tee programs." Fain agreed, also "wishing to thank Powerade for continuing their support as title sponsor." Combined, the Greenville & Spartanburg teams raised approximately $30,000 that will be passed along to The First Tee of their respective counties.
