McCoy and Elliot proceeded their final round at The Fox Club with tallies of 70-64 as they finished 9 under and a slim one shot in front of runner-up Chad Wilfong and Allen Hobbs.

McCoy, the 2013 U.S. Mid-Amateur winner and Elliot have been longtime forces in the amateur game both as teammates and foes. The pair has battled it out for years in Iowa Golf Association events and also on the national stage.

Wilfong and Hobbs made a valiant charge on Monday before coming up one-stroke short of forcing a playoff. The week started with an even-par 71 before Wilfond and Hobbs combined for consecutive 4-under 67's that pushed them to 8 under for week.

Shawn Baker and Jim Scorse (-7) ended up third while Tim Hanlon and Scott Butler and 36-hole co-leaders Rob Couture and Andy McCabe shared fourth at 6 under.

For the second consecutive year Keith Decker and Matt Sughrue captured the title in the Senior Division. The duo from Virginia recored rounds of 64-67-65 to post 17 under.

Decker is coming off a 2016 season that saw him win four AmateurGolf.com Ranking events whereas Sughrue made a deep run at the U.S Senior Amateur before settling for a runner-up finish.

The closest teams to Decker and Sughrue were the 13 under second place sharing Doug Hanzel and Buzz Fly; Pat Tallent and Rick Woulfe pairings.

Chip Lutz and Chris Lange were one shot further back in fourth while Jim Lehman and Jerry Rose rounded out the top five with a 9 under showing.
