By Jake Sutherlin Alexandria Echo Press

In the Men’s Executive division at the 102nd Resorters Tournament, who has won five-straight division titles, used his automatic qualification for the match play bracket and will be the No. 2 seed.

Andrew Olson posted six birdies en route to a top-place finish in the Men’s Executive qualifying on Sunday afternoon, earning him the top seed for Wednesday’s match-play first round.

He competed in the Pro-Am on Saturday and posted a top-10 finish in the amateur division. A lone bogey on the second hole blemished his score and left him with a 5-under 67 on the day.

The No. 3, 4, and 5 seeds all finished with a 68 (4-under). Daryl Schomer is the No. 3 seed and carded seven birdies but also finished with three bogeys. Bryant Black is the No. 4 seed and finished his round with five birdies and a single bogey. Bryan Hoops rounds out the top five, having also posted five birdies with a lone bogey.
