Playing out of Wyantenuck Country Club, Andy Congdon, took the top spot in Thursdays’s Super Senior qualifier finishing at a 2-under 67 in 18-holes.

He would start his back nine by adding two more birdies on the first and second hole going 3-under through 11 holes. Congdon would make his only bogey of the day on the par-3 sixth hole and finish the day carding a 2-under 67.
Congdon was among the 21 competitors who qualified Thursday and scores of those advancing ranged from an 2-under 67 to 9-over 78.
