In the team competition, John Hunter and Jordan Russell won by ten shots, finishing 10-under. Sean Rowan and Kenny Cook finished in solo second place at even par.

He defeated the 2010 U.S. Amateur champion and future PGA Tour member Peter Uihlein 2&1 in the quarterfinals to advance to the semifinals.
In 2012, Russell finished runner-up at the Western Amateur and second place solo at the Northeast Amateur. He also finished T18 in the 2012 Porter Cup.
Recently, Russell finished T4 at the 2022 International Mid-Amateur Team and Individual Championship.
