Manzone’s 65 leads S.B. City Championship

The college players took command on the first day of Santa Barbara City Golf Championship at Santa Barbara Golf Club on Saturday.

City College player Manny Manzone fired a 5-under 65 to take the first-round lead. He’s one stroke ahead of teammate Jake Ledbetter. Two strokes back are UCSB golf team members Millan Batra and Willy Moffly.

Seven players are at 68, including UCSB’s Brandon Bauman, Niels Andersen of San Marcos High and former San Marcos standout Thayer White.

There will be a new champion this year as Brett Silvernail didn’t return to defend his championship.

The championship flight tees off Sunday at 1:30 p.m. A cut will be made after the second round. Monday’s final round will start around 9 a.m.
