Allred Victorious

U.S. Junior Amateur champion Jason Allred beat Walker Cup team member Buddy Marucci Jr. 4 and 3 in the first round of match play at the U.S. Amateur golf tournament.

And that was not the only upset on Cog Hill Golf and Country Club’s Dubsdread course.

Terry Oloughlin, of White Bear Lake, Minn., who survived a seven-hole playoff to qualify for match play, knocked out medalist Roger Tambellini, of Templeton, Calif., 3 and 2.

Allred, a 17-year-old from Ashland, Ore., and the youngest player left in the field, won four straight holes on the front nine en route to his victory over Marucci, 45, who was playing in his 18th U.S. Amateur.
