St. Thomas More Collegiate grad Kevin Vigna finished in a tie for 41st place at the B.C. amateur golf championships, which wrapped up at the Copper Point Golf Club in Windermere last Friday.
Vigna, who last week lost a three-way playoff at the B.C. junior championships, posted an 11-over-par total 295 on the 6,807-yard, par-70 course after finishing the final round with a four-over 74.
The incoming Simon Fraser University freshman edged out the Clan's Michael Belle of Burnaby by four strokes.
Burnaby's Lucas Gatto and New Westminster's Matt Steinbach both missed the cut.
Former Sport B.C. junior boys' athlete of the year Adam Svensson charged into a share of top spot with a five-under-par 65 in the final round to tie Charlie Hughes of Langley for the overall lead.
Svensson and Hughes both finished the 72-hole competition at 12-under-par.
Hughes, a 21-year-old University of Washington graduate, drained a 20-foot putt on the second playoff hole to win his first B.C. amateur title.
