Cody Bell earned a top-10 finish last Friday at the 2012 PING CCAA Golf National Championship hosted by Durham College at the Oshawa Golf and Curling Club.

A member of UBC Okanagan Heat men’s squad but playing as an individual, Bell was just one stroke higher than teammate Will Deck at 222 (74-73-75).

“I’m happy with my play,” said Bell from Oshawa. “My goal was to do better than I did in P.E.I. (at the 2011 CCAA Championships) where I was tied for 10th. I had the same result this year, so although it could’ve been better, I’m happy with my result.”

The men’s team title was once again won by the Humber Hawks, their fourth in a row. The UBC Okanagan team of Jennifer Woods, Jessica Kozak and Alana Kent captured the women’s title with a 1-stroke victory over the Holland College Hurricanes, finishing at 501 for the championship.
