Adam Hofmann, locked in a duel with Nathan Smith, made a regulation par on the 18^th hole to Smith’s bogey, winning the 94^th Pennsylvania Amateur at Longue Vue Club.  Hofman recorded 66-70-72—208, while Smith carded 67-69-73—209.  Hofmann’s win was the first in the state amateur for an area golfer since Smith won the 2002 edition at Oakmont.  Hofmann overcame a quadruple bogey on the sixth hole and played solid golf the rest of the way to win his first state title.
