Cole Anderson beats Powell

Cole Anderson thinks it would be fun if Maines amateur golf championship incorporated both stroke and match play, like the other New England states.

Anderson joins an impressive list of former match play champions that includes Maine Amateur winners Ryan Gay, Johnny Hayes, Ricky Jones, Andrew Slattery, Matt Hutchins and last years runner-up, Sam Grindle.

I personally think it would be fun to have it all in one, have two days of stroke play and then send it to match play, Anderson said.

Playing in his first competitive match-play situation, Anderson won five matches over three days, only once being extended beyond the 15th hole.

Anderson moved to 4 up with five holes to play after a Powell bogey on the 13th hole.
