Saturday Scramble: Wininger, Souerdike and Kevin Byron Go Low
Dave Wininger, Wayne Souerdike and Kevin Byron used a double birdie on hole #3 and an eagle on #6 to vault the team to a best of the season five under win in the Saturday Scramble. Wayne rolled one in from off the green on three and then chipped one in at six to lead the attack on a course that proved surprisingly easy for several teams. The team of Tyler Kidwell, Junior Byron and Curt Johnson double birdied #7 and followed that with a birdie on #8 but gave one back on #9 to fall one stroke shy with a score of minus four. Jason Rominger, Trenton Kidwell and Karry Stoll fired a two under par with birdies at the expected birdie holes, numbers two, four, six and eight, but found trouble at #3 with a double bogie and a final score of minus 2. Mike Kidwell, Mike Bird, Greg Potts and Joe Doyle found a couple of birdies to offset a couple of bogeys for an even par round that made them the 'drag-in-the-caboose' team of the day. The scramble was again a modified one with golfers playing their own balls on the par threes.Community League Results

Tied for third place with 64's were Tom McAtee, Jim Murphy and Virgil Harper.Event 8 highlights: A sterling outing for TJ McAtee with a 34 gross and a net of 26; TJ played a lot of golf this past week and even came out Monday night and practiced his putting. Bryant Trambaugh and Noah Callahan shot net 30's to tie for second place in low net while Kevin Johnson tied TJ in low gross with his own 34. Low net team goes to TJ McAtee and sub Josh Hawkins with their 58; second place was shared by several teams shooting 62's: John Drake and Dean Winkler, Todd Baker and Noah Callahan, and Kyle Jones (subbing for Mike Breeden) and Bryant Trambaugh.

Short Jeffers shot a 34 and James Hager a 35 for low gross. Team low net was shared by James Hager and Ryan Johnson with the team of Junior and Kevin Byron.
Of note: Tim Voegerl prepared for his golf game by reading a little more of Leo Tolstoy's War and Peace. Greg Potts had his first ball on #5 sail out of bounds and his second hit a tree and bound back beyond the tee box and onto #4 green; he settled for a maximum double par on the hole. Dave Strange had much better luck with two of his putts from just off the green finding the bottom of the cup.
