ARDMORE, Pa. -- Shawn Stefani lost track of the ball as soon it rocketed off his 4-iron. A roaring U.S. Open gallery tracked it for him. "Go! Go! Go! Go!" It did Sunday when Stefani aced the 17th hole, making him the first golfer to make a hole-in-one at any U.S. Open at Merion Golf Club, which is hosting the major for the fifth time. "When the crowd went crazy, I knew it went in," he said. His shot bounced out of the rough and rolled some 50 feet toward the pin before falling in the cup. Stefani raised his arms and hopped around the tee in celebration. Caddie Chris Callas gave him a playful hug and a slap on the back. "I didnt know what to do but jump up and down for joy," Stefani said. Then he walked down the 213-yard, par-3 hole and planted a kiss on the sweet spot where it landed. "Were in Philly. Theres some great fans up here and I know they can be tough on you and they can love you forever," he said. USGA Museum officials waited for Stefani near the scorecard trailer and hoped to acquire the ball. Stefani declined. "Its hiding right now," he said. "Im going to save it." But he did pull the ball out of his pocket and showed it off. He also inquired about getting some sort of commemorative plaque from Merion. The USGAs Far Hills, N.J. museum didnt go home empty-handed -- Stefani donated a signed glove and scorecard. His only other ace came when he was 13 at Goose Creek Country Club in Baytown, Texas, his hometown. It was the first ace at Merion, but not at a Philadelphia Open. The first U.S. Open hole-in-one came in 1907, when Jack Hobens aced the 147-yard 10th hole at the Philadelphia Cricket Club. Pat Valaika Jersey . - Blake Griffin had 30 points and 12 rebounds, J.

My colleague Chad Ford is projecting that the 2017 draft will be dominated by freshmen, particularly at the top. Assuming thats the case, many of the freshmen entering college right now will be sporting ball caps and large smiles come next summer.But all thats in the future. For now Im interested in what these guys can bring to the table on behalf of their college teams. So I decided to make some informed projections on what exactly stars such as Harry Giles and Josh Jackson are going to show us in the next few monnths.ddddddddddddve chosen to use good old-fashioned per-game stats just for simplicitys sake (pardon me while I close my flip phone and grab this floppy disk), but note that each player blurb seeks to address quality in addition to sheer volume where performance is concerned.Based on the player rankings in the 2016 ESPN 100, here are my expectations for the top 20 freshmen for 2016-17: ' ' '
