JOHNSTOWN, Pa. — The Columbia men's golf team earned a tie for fourth in the Red Flash Invitational, which was held Monday and Tuesday at Sunnehana Country Club.

Five Lions finished in the top 30 of the 66-man field. Competing as an individual, first year Sam Johnson had his best performance to date, carding rounds of 70, 70 and 71 to tie for 14th at 1 over par. First years Neil Kulkarni (+2) and Alejandro Formosa (+4) were tied for 18th and 24th, respectively. Meanwhile, senior Darren Pang (+5) was tied for 26th.
