Lancaster, Pa. (September 21, 2023) — Taking advantage of the beautiful sunny weather and mild temperatures, PGA Member Parks Price of Country Club of York in York, Pa., and amateur Devin O’Connor teamed to win the 2023 A.B. Thorn Memorial Pro-Am at Lancaster Country Club by one stroke over J.T. Wambold, Yardley C.C., and Chris Ault; and Andrew Cornish, Cedarbrook C.C., and Pat McCusker.

The annual tournament was first played in 1936 under the moniker “Lancaster Pro-Am,” and has since changed to its current name to memorialize A.B. Thorn, Lancaster’s former PGA Head Professional, who also held the Section’s first vice president position in 1942-1944.

Price and O’Connor, the champions, made four birdies on the front nine and two on the back side in the four-ball better ball of partners format. Price made five birdies with his own golf ball, with O’Connor making two of his own.

Five teams tied for fourth place at 4-under-par, including: John Cooper, PGA, Green Valley C.C., and Tyler Joseph; Matt Finger, DuPont C.C., and Alan Lazzarino; Stephen Sieracki, PGA, Legacy Club at Woodcrest, and Sal Galati; Trevor Bensel, Sandy Run C.C., and Pat Welsh; and Kyle Miller, PGA, Bellewood C.C., and Dave Reinhart.
