JUNIOR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIP RECAP The Junior Club Championship teed off Saturday on the North Course, with 33 competitors putting their skills to the test across three divisions. In the 5-hole division, the leaderboard was tightly packed, but Davis Crifasi edged out the field with a steady round of 28 (+7). Patrick Larrabee finished three strokes behind at 31 (+10), and Bradley Hopkins rounded out the top three with a 33 (+12).
In the 9-hole division, Charlie Sears claimed his second 9-hole title with a strong 40 (+5), just one shot clear of Trey Gordon, who posted a 41 (+6). Michael Perry secured third place with a 45 (+10).
The 18-hole division featured twelve juniors vying for a place in Wilmington Country Club history as the 2025 Junior Club Champion. Beckett Chipman held the overnight lead after Saturday’s first round on the North Course, shooting 74 to place him four strokes ahead of Parker Alivernini and Connor Smolenski. With a tightly contested leaderboard heading into Sunday’s final round on the South Course, the top trio of Beckett, Parker, and Connor teed off together. Parker surged ahead with a front nine 38, taking a two-shot lead over Connor at the turn. A double bogey on the 13th briefly tightened the race, with Connor closing the gap to just one. Meanwhile, Beckett rebounded from a tough start and made a late push on the back nine.
