Some of the best players in the state age 13 and under competed in the event, with the designated “Team Europe” (pictured) defeating Team USA 19-13 after three sessions of matches.
While the USA won Sunday’s 18-hole singles session, 9-7, Europe had built a commanding lead in the team portion of the event, winning the nine-hole four-ball and the nine-hole foursomes — both held on Saturday — by 6-2 margins in each case.
