Lakeview Golf Course News for the week of April 14:
Tuesday Men's League
The rains were expected to start falling around three in the afternoon; then changed to around six in the evening. Sometime a little after eight, the last foursome finished up and the winners of our first opening day scramble were posted without a drop of rain coming down on the players. Give thanks to the wayward winds with their little nudge pushing the storms just west and north of us. For the record, here are the winners of the scramble and the sharpshooters who got themselves a hole prize: Low gross: the team of Mark Jeffers and Tim Voegerl turned in a score of 30 with Tim running in the longest putt on #1 and Short running in an even longer and decisive putt on #9. Five other teams posted scores of 31. Low net winners: new players in the Tuesday Men's League, Mark Sherer and Josh Huff turned in a score of 31 which translated into a net of 26.66. Two teams, the Denson/Holland team and the Jeffers/Voegerl team, tied for second in net with scores of 28. Hole Prizes went to Tim Voegerl for the longest putt on #1; Mike Kidwell, Dean Winkler and Curt Johnson got the prizes on the short holes, #3, #7 and #9. Regular season gets underway Tuesday, April 15th, with the first week of a two-week Team Tournament.
Thursday Senior League
Lakeview's Senior League started its season with a two person scramble on Thursday, the 10th of April. Though skies were again threatening, the rains did not show up as 15 golfers competed for the first blue ribbon of the new season. Pam and Junior Byron, recently returned from sunny Florida, won both low gross and low net with scores of 32 and 26.33. The team of Al Kavanaugh and Diane Bird came in second in both categories with scores of 34 and 28.67. Vic Wallace got a hole prize for longest putt on #1, while Mike Bird, Morris Cornelius and Albert Kavanaugh got hole prizes for closest to the pins on #3, #7 and #9. Regular season competition starts for the seniors Thursday, April 17th, at 9am.
