Delisanti Wins U.S. Amateur Qualifier, VanArragon Captures Minnesota State Open
Anthony Delisanti won his U.S. Amateur Qualifier this week.

A successful college season may be in the rearview mirror, but the victories just keep coming for the Valparaiso University men’s golf team.

Rising fifth-year senior Caleb VanArragon (Blaine, Minn. / Blaine) won the Minnesota State Open, while rising junior Anthony Delisanti (Sanborn, N.Y. / Niagara Wheatfield) won his U.S. Amateur Qualifier, with both victories coming in resounding fashion.

VanArragon finished at -13 in the Minnesota State Open including a Round-3 score of six strokes under par. He outdid the runner-up score by nine strokes. The event took place July 10-12 at Oak Ridge Country Club in Hopkins, Minn.

Delisanti finished at -10 at the U.S. Amateur Sectional Qualifier at Seven Oaks Golf Club in Hamilton, N.Y. to garner a spot in the U.S. Amateur Championship, which will take place at Cherry Hills Country Club in Colorado from Aug. 14-20. The two-time Missouri Valley Conference champion won medalist honors in this event by shooting rounds of 67-67. He made seven birdies in each of his two rounds at the Colgate University course. Delisanti is now competing in the Porter Cup, which began on Wednesday and runs through Saturday at Niagara Falls Country Club.
