"The 289": Playing in the season-ending District Shootout event at Taconic in late April, 2005, the Ephs needed a great finish to ensure an invitation to the NCAA field. After a score of 304 on Saturday to put them in 3rd place, on Sunday the team lapped the field with the best single-round score in Williams Golf history - a 289. Leading the way was junior captain Matt Slovitt, who ran off a string of birdies, including four straight culminating on the 11th hole where he found himself 6-under par. Matt finished the day at 1-under par 70. Sophomore Kevin Kellert finished the front nine with a 33, and was shocked to hear that 3-under wasn't even good enough to be best on the team at that point! Kevin finished with an even-par 71. Freshman phenom Nick Ryder played a consistent round of golf, ending with a birdie on 18 for an even-par 71 to share tournament medalist honors with Slovitt. Junior Will Sirignano rounded out the scoring with a solid 77, making the team total an eye-popping 289 and cementing Williams a spot in Orlando at Nationals.
The varsity men's golf team is a collection of individuals who were good at golf in high school and now are relatively better at drinking than golf, with the obvious exception of Kevin Kellert '07 - until his display of funneling beers on October 29, 2005. The team enjoys weekly trips to the [[Guide_to_Off-Campus_Dining#Ye_Olde_Forge|Old Forge Restaurant]], Bob Seger, and Lapdog. The team practices on the wonderful [[Taconic Golf Club|Taconic Golf Course]]. Every Spring Break, the golf team goes to Florida to improve their golf and [[beirut]] skills. Detailed statistics for golf (fairways, greens in regulation, putts, sand saves, and penalty strokes) and beirut (cups hit, wal-marts, quotes) are recorded. Golf skill and beirut skill do not tend to overlap. As one increases the other, as sad as it may be, declines. An inverse relationship per se, or whatever.
