The 2021 Santy Cup matches will go down in Santy Cup history as the "mauling in the mountains".  Team Fante mauled Team Higgins 17-8.  It was a complete ass kicking, as Team Higgins never even won a single session.  The critics were tough on Captain Fante after year one, but he redeemed himself with great pairings throughout the weekend.  Congrats to Team Fante members Chris Amato, Keith Brinkmann, Brett Buccigross, Will Carroll, Leo Fante, Ben Galluzzo, Kevin Hegman, Kyle Mahoney, Nick Stock, and Ben Rader.

The 2021 Santy Cup individual tournament was full of suspense, as it came down to the last few holes. After day one Chris Amato and Matt Starkey were tied for the lead.  Matt Starkey finished in the lead on day two.  When it was all said and done Ben Galluzzo came out on top as your 2021 Champion Golfer.  Ben was consistent all weekend, had his iron game dialed, as he won numerous closest to pin competitions, and made some crucial putts on his way to victory.  Conditions were not easy Saturday with the rain and the possibility of sliding down the moutain in your cart.  Impressive victory for Ben in his first Santy Cup appearance!
