Lakeview Golf Course News for the week of September 22:

St. John's Youth Scramble


Bryant Ackerman, Tyler Jacobs and Curt Johnson were the winners of a Sunday afternoon scramble at Lakeview. The St. John's high schoolers were accompanied by parents and friends in the outing. The Ackerman/Jacobs/Johnson team came in with a score of one under which was just enough to beat two teams who came in at even par: Clinton Burch, Luke Jones, Mollie Jones and TJ McAtee; and Jennifer Clark, Hannah LaMar, Wynter Wagoner and Alan Burch. The team of Jared Butcher, Terry LaMar and Shirley Jeffers came in at plus two. Alayna Coy kept the group in cold drinks as the Beverage Cart girl. Hole prize winners were Wynter Wagoner, Jennifer Clark, Luke Jones and Bryant Ackerman.

Johnson, Hembree and Bird Dominant

In the Saturday Modified Scramble, the team of Curt Johnson, Larry Hembree and Mike Bird shot a three under to dominate the teams of Wayne Souerdike, Bryant Trambaugh and Kevin Byron at +7, and Tyler Kidwell, Jeff Doyle, Joe Doyle and Gary Webb at +3. The victors played even on the par threes with both Mike Bird and Curt Johnson getting the hat trick (pars on each of them), and Larry Hembree being instrumental on the scramble holes, driving #2 which led to an easy two putt birdie, and also running in a 12 foot putt for birdie on #5. The other two teams played the scramble holes at -2 and -3 but found disaster waiting for them at each of the par threes, playing them at +9 and +6.

Byron, Butcher, Wagoner, Shaw and Bird Triumph

The Senior game this past Thursday was a Scramble/Best Ball/Alternate Shot affair that was won by the Black Team over the Red Team. In this game, the golfers played their own ball on the par threes, a scramble on the par fours, and alternating shot on the par fives. Mike Bird and Rex Hudson went out against Junior Byron and Jack Butcher and played to a tie, 48 to 48. The remaining three players of the Red team, Kenny Hudson, Clyde Wake and Pam Byron, failed to match the sterling play of Denny Wagoner, Ray Shaw and Diane Bird who triumphed, 49 to 55. Total team score favored the Black Team, 97 to 103.

Post Season play at Lakeview - Event 1

On Tuesday, September 16th, the first post league season event was held. The two person handicapped scramble was won by TJ McAtee and Ryan Johnson who closed with birdies on the 8th and 9th hole for a net score of 28 and a one stroke win over the team of Terry Padgett and Gary Burris. Three teams shared the low gross at 32: TJ McAtee and Ryan Johnson, Terry Butcher and Mark Jones, and Terry Padgett and Gary Burris.
