AGAWAM — Frontier Regional School eighth-grader Mikey Corduff approached the green on hole No. 2 at Crestview Country Club.

He expected a birdie putt would be waiting for him.

“My ball was moving because of the wind. I had to step off it,” Corduff said.

Winds gusted between 25 and 40 miles per hour, depending on who played amateur meteorologist.

Temperatures started in the 40s at the beginning of the round and climbed above 50 degrees by the time the scores were carded.

Corduff tamed the wind as well as just about everyone Monday at the at the Western Mass Division 2 Golf Championships.

He shot an 83 to finish second as an individual to qualify for the state tournament, which will be held Monday at Black Swan Country Club in Georgetown.

“I just stick to my game plan and what I wanted to do for today — my chipping and putting — getting it up there close and then making the putt,” Corduff said.

It was his second time at the WMass Tournament. He played last year with the Red Hawks’ five seniors.

“I learned off them,” he said.

Corduff plans to stick with his game plan when he plays Black Swan.

“It’s going to be long, and I’m not the longest person in the world, so I can just chip up and make the putt,” he said.

Frontier shot 394 as a team to finish sixth. Bryan Baumann had a 101, Kyle Spencer 102, Kalen Evans a 108, Scott Pelis a 109 and Rowan Blair a 113.

Pathfinder’s Joe Conkey took the individual medalist honor with an 82.

Belchertown posted a 348 as a team to win the title.

“Last year they didn’t have much confidence. They didn’t think they could win,” Belchertown coach Dave Wright said. “This year they had a lot of confidence saying, ‘We can do this.’ Because they finished second last year.”

The Orioles also qualified last season but did so in the runner-up spot. That motivated them to win this year.

“Getting that experience last year matured us in a way,” Belchertown senior Frankie Murray said.

Southwick was second at 354. Both teams qualify for the state tournament .

Ryan Chrabascz, the defending individual champion led Belchertown with an 85, which would have qualified him for state as an individual.

Murray and Jonathan Betcha shot 87s, while Justin Bourque rounded out Belchertown’s scoring with an 89.

“They thought their scores were high, but when I did see them I tried to encourage them saying, ‘it’s tough out here, scores are going to be a little higher today,’” Wright said. “Try to keep pushing along and finish strong.”
