Old News

Hmmm. Got the Loogootee Tribune in the mail yesterday and glanced through it for the local news and stuff. Hmmm. Didn't see the Lakeview Golf Course News. Go through it again and still didn't find it. Darn. Opps. Not there cause I didn't get it filed; written but not filed. My bad. Here it is, uneditied by Diane since she went off to Bloomington to cat sit:

Lakeview Golf Course News
Week of June 29, 2009


Potts, Bird, Breeden and Byron Post Nine Under

Mark Potts, Mike Bird, Jay Breeden and the guy with the hot putter, Kevin Byron, shot nine under to win the Saturday's scramble at Lakeview. The team had two eagles, four birdies and two pars to get to their winning score with Kevin sinking putts of twenty plus feet on #1, a ten footer on #8 and then a honey of forty plus feet on #9 to lead the way. The team of Dave Wininger, Jordan Divine, Joe Allen and Karry Stoll posted seven under to claim second place. Five other teams competed for the first place prize with scores ranging from one under to six under.

Community League

The Community League saw Tarry Bratton and Bill Harder reclaim the top spot by a scant point over the team of Bryant Ackerman and Clinton Burch. The previous week’s leader, Carol and Ray Shaw fell to third place in the Team standings. In Individual play, Adam Wagler remained at the top, leading Bill Harder, Ray Shaw, Duane Wagler and Ken Wagler who fill out the two through five spots. Low scores for the week were posted by Jamal Wittmer at 25 in the net category; Linda Strosnider posted a 27 to come in second.

Senior League

In the Thursday League, the Seniors made up the rain out of a Thursday back and Rex Hudson jumped back into the top spot in the Individual standings. He’s followed by Carroll Rayhill, Junior Byron and Jack Lents in a close race where just eleven points separate the top four golfers. Richard Swayze and Mike Bird got stomped on by Wayne Pearl and Junior Byron in the make up round but bounced back against Kenny Hudson and Carroll Rayhill to stay on top in the Team standings. Wayne and Junior find themselves in second place in the Team standings, just seven points behind the leaders.

The Johnson/Parker team slipped to third as Doug Denson and Buck Holland scored 63 points to grab second place.
