Fran Marrello of Canaan CC had to go extra holes this time around, but won the 60th Senior Connecticut PGA Championship for the second straight year with a birdie on the sixth hole of a sudden-death playoff at Fox Hopyard GC.
Marrello, who shot an even-par 71 and two-day total of 146, outlasted Ralph Salito (The Club at River Oaks), Bob Kay (Tumble Brook CC), John Paesani (Norwich GC) and Tony Kelley (Wyckoff CC). Marrello also won the event in 2007.
