Captain Bruce LoPucki teed up first against Yale's Hank Willner. After nine holes, LoPucki was on up. But in the second nine, he ran into early trouble. He was one down coming up to the 15th hole. LoPucki birdied the par 4, 315-yard hole and went on to win the next two holes. He finished with a 2 and 1 victory...

"I unwind quickly in the fresh air," Wilson offered, adding, in case the photographers couldn't tell: "I'm not very good at golf." Feet too close together, knee locked, arms carefully flexed, he poised to driver, ah, maybe it was supposed...
