Joe Potts and Mike Arvin go low to seal scramble victory

Joe Potts and Mike Arvin played the C and D positions in a foursome that included Dave Wininger and Larry Hembree in the Saturday morning modified scramble. The four, playing in different groups, shot a combined score of 66 to snatch victory by one stroke over the team of Greg Potts, Mike Bird, Joe Allen and Jack Lents. Potts and Arvin shot three stokes better than any other C/D twosome, making up the two shot deficit that Wininger and Hembree had against other A/B twosomes. The scramble was modified to a second degree as the A and B players went out in foursomes that included other A and B players, and the C and D players did the same. The golfers played their own ball on the par threes with the low score counting as the team score. The results:

1. score: 66 - Dave Wininger and Larry Hembree (32)/Joe Potts and Mike Arvin (34)
2. score: 67 - Mike Bird and Greg Potts (30)/Joe Allen and Jack Lents (37)
3. score: 68 - Terry Butcher and Tyler Kidwell (30)/Kevin Byron, Gary Webb and Dan Henning (38)
4. score: 71 - Tyler Walton and Wayne Souerdike (31)/Karry Stoll and Bryant Trambaugh (40)
