Zulli averaged 83.1 in seven spring matches and now holds an 85.7 average in 27 outings.

Rutgers-Camden golfers
set for spring season

CAMDEN - Head coach Bob Cardea and his Rutgers University-Camden golf program finished the 2005 portion of their schedule on a high note, capturing the championship at their own Rutgers University-Camden Scarlet Raptors Fall Invitational on Oct. 28. That capped another successful semester for the Raptors, who posted a 44-41-1 mark in the fall, giving the team four consecutive winning semesters for the first time in program history.

This spring the Scarlet Raptors are looking to become the first golf team at Rutgers-Camden to post back-to-back winning school years (fall and spring semesters combined) since the 1992-93 and 1993-94 teams became the only clubs to accomplish that feat.

The Scarlet Raptors return everyone from their fall team except Brian Mason (Bridgeton, NJ/Bridgeton), who used his final semester of eligibility in the first semester. Mason had a fine fall season, finishing second on the club with a 79.7 average while leading the team in three of the Raptors' six invitationals. He finished his career in style as the overall medalist at the RU-Camden Scarlet Raptors Fall Invitational.

Cardea's team returns six lettermen, led by junior Matt Tomasic (Berlin, NJ/St. Augustine Prep). A transfer from a strong Moravian College program, Tomasic became the Scarlet Raptors' top golfer in the fall, leading the club with a 79.0 average, including a season-best 74 at the Moravian College Fall Invitational Sept. 22. That score was three strokes off the program record.

Freshman Michael Nauss (Blackwood, NJ/Paul VI) finished with an 82.8 average in the fall during his first semester of collegiate competition, while senior John Goff (Haddon Heights, NJ/Paul VI) averaged 83.2 while competing in all six fall outings. Goff, whose 78 led the Raptors at the Lebanon Valley College Fall Invitational Sept. 26, owns an 87.2 average over 43 career invitationals at Rutgers-Camden.

Also returning are juniors Rob Burgess (Sewell, NJ/Gloucester Catholic) and Joe Zulli (Bellmawr, NJ/Paul VI) and freshman Eric Welsh (Cinnaminson, NJ/Cinnaminson). Zulli compiled an average of 84.4 in five fall outings and had a career average of 86.6 in 20 invitationals. Burgess shot a 92 in his one outing last fall at the RU-Camden Scarlet Raptors Fall Invitational, while Welsh averaged 94.5 in a pair of fall outings.

Swarthmore finished second as a team, posting a 336 score.

The final invitational of the season pushed the Scarlet Raptors' overall record to 44-41-1 for the fall competition, marking the fourth consecutive semester Rutgers-Camden has finished above .500.

Mason's 79 marked the fourth time in six fall outings that he shot in the 70s, while Tomasic barely missed his fifth invitational in the 70s.

In addition to Mason and Tomasic, the Raptors also received a round of 84 from junior Joe Zulli (Bellmawr, NJ/Paul VI), an 87 from senior John Goff (Haddon Heights, NJ/Paul VI) and a 100 from freshman Eric Welsh (Cinnaminson, NJ/Cinnaminson).
