Kevin Marsh, whose roots are in Santa Barbara, is feeling right at home at Saticoy Country Club.
The 35-year-old Henderson, Nev., resident, fired a 2-under-par 70 Saturday and leads the 109th Southern California Golf Association Amateur Championship by three shots heading into today's final round of the nation's second oldest, continuously contested amateur golf championship.
Marsh's 210 total for 54 holes, 6 under on the challenging 6,905-yard layout, is three shots in front of 2004 SCGA Amateur champion Tim Hogarth of Northridge and UC Davis rising sophomore Austin Graham of San Clemente. Those two are five shots clear of the next three golfers: Wayne Merich of Moorpark, Spencer Anderson of Pacific Palisades and Brian Edick of Valencia.
Final-round tee times begin today at 8 a.m. Live scoring will be available on the SCGA Amateur Web site: http:///www.scgaamateur.org.
The 35-year-old Marsh, who won the 2005 U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship and played in the 2006 Masters, had four birdies and two bogeys in his third round.
