James joins us to talk about winning his fourth New Hampshire Mid-Amateur Championship last week at Mount Washington.

Episode 82: Mike Mahan and Jim Cilley
A two-part episode.
Part One: Mike Mahan, won his second Seacoast Am title earlier this summer, talks his start in golf, choosing a college that let him keep playing multiple sports, and the final stretch at York — including the chip-in that forced a playoff.
Part Two: Jim Cilley joins Mike to talk about their recent Mid-Am Team Championship win at Mount Washington, bouncing back from a Four-Ball playoff loss earlier this year, and what makes two-man team golf different from solo stroke play.
