Patrick Welch posted a first round 78 and is tied for 40th after the first round of the Calusa Cup at Calusa Pines Golf Club in Florida.

Jonathan (Brightwell) played a solid round of golf today, and Quade (Cummins) and Garett (Reband) had great rallies to finish off the day. We will be better tomorrow,” said Head Coach Ryan Hybl after the round.
