Although match play is a format that allows many competitors to be more aggressive on certain shots and puts the emphasis more on one’s opponent than on the course, Dan Russo doesn’t change his focus much at all.
Russo, the 63-year-old member of Schuyler Meadows, is the area’s all-time leader in major tournament victories among amateurs. Russo certainly knows how to win in golf, and he will play his normal game next weekend when the annual Tri-County Golf Association Match Play Championship is contested Friday through Sunday at Colonie Golf & Country Club.

A youthful Siena College men’s golf team appears to be in top form just in time for this weekend’s Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference championship at Disney’s Magnolia Golf Course in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. Siena winds up tournament play Sunday.
The Saints, who last captured the MAAC title back in 2016, hadn’t won a regular-season tournament title since 2007-08, but they pulled off a mild upset by winning the Hartford/Gillette Ridge Invitational at the Gillette Ridge Golf Club last week in Bloomfield, Connecticut. Siena shot a 20-over-par 308 in the 18-hole event to edge MAAC rival Fairfield by 10 strokes and Trinity College by 11.
