Tuesday Men's League: The Wrap

The Tuesday Men's League Wrap: The season came to a close with all sorts of surprises, the biggest the Rob Sterling/Jim Murphy ascension to the top of the Team standings. Rob shot a 'sterling' 39, certainly his best ever, and Jim shot a 43 to give them a net team score of 64 and just enough points on the night to catch and pass the leaders at the start of the day, Terry Padgett and Gary Burris. And that by a slim margin of one point. Over in the Individual competition, Noah Callahan won it all with a round of 41, but he was caught in the Flighted Tournament as both Bryant Trambaugh (39) and Chris Bledsoe (36) finished with 77's to Noah's 78. Phil Eyler's low gross round of 32, which included the only eagle of the day, got him a tie for second in the A Flight with James Hager at 70. Short Jeffers' 36 and his first round 32 gave him a 68 for the tournament and the top spot. Tyler Kidwell shot a round of 35 and that enabled him to catch Junior Byron (39) in the B Flight; the two of them finished with 18 hole scores of 72. In D Flight, Mike Smith amost caught first round leader Charlie Lyon; they shot a 41 and a 42 to come in at 79 and 78 for the top two spots in that Flight; Mark Jones' 45 dropped him to third with a total score of 81. In E Flight, Curt Johnson followed his first round score of 38 with a second round score of 45 and that was just enough to squeak out a win over the hard charging Rob Sterling who finished with that previously mentioned 39. In F Flight, Richie Green shot his best ever round at 44, found a birdie and a hole prize on the last hole, and dominated his flight with a score of 93 and a six stroke advantage over second place finisher Keith Parsons. Joining Richie Green at low net for the day was Kevin Byron who shot a gross 40; the two of them finished with net 28's. James Hager's 34 was second low gross score to Phil Eyler's 32. The low net team score of the event was shot by Trenton Kidwell and Chris Bledsoe; their rounds of 35 and 36 translated into a nifty net team score of 62. Seven golfers had two birdies on the day: John Walker, Trenton Kidwell, Junior Byron, Mark Sherer, Short Jeffers, James Hager and Phil Eyler. Joining Richie Green in claiming hole prizes were John Drake, Chris Bledsoe and Jason Rominger.
