Toscano Struggles Near Beechmont in Rugged Cleveland Open
New Castle golfer Harry Toscano Jr faltered at Beechmont Country Club retreating after a first round 70 while Bobby Mitchell led at 22 under par. Toscano cited poor putting as the key issue and recalled a past wrist injury while teammate caddy Wayne Messner noted his improved ball striking. The Beechmont layout and practice-area ball roll fueled the tough round as Harmon did not make the cut.
