Community League Recap Event 6

In the Community League's July Match Play Tournament, Chris Jones and Tim Sanders advanced to the semi finals with a win over Dale and Richard Yoder, a match that wasn't decided until the ninth hole.  They will face Ryan Graber and Michael 'Finny' Graber who advanced after beating Emanuel Wagler and Adrian Graber in a match that was decided with a tie breaker after each team finished nine holes at 4.5 points each.  In the other semi final match, Gary and Terry LaMar advanced with a 2 and 1 victory over Clint Knepp and Rob Graber.  They will meet Larry Wininger and Mike Bird who advanced when their opponents, Ken and Sharon Frye, were unable to play.

For the week, Adam Wagler posted the low gross score with a 34, a new personal low.  He also shared the low net, a 27, with Chris Jones, and joined partner Tyson Stoll in shooting the team low net of 58.  Noah Callahan stayed on top of the individual standings although Larry Wininger, with a 28 point week, and Jeremy Graber, with a 38 point week, moved into second and third place.  Noah's lead is 18 points over Larry and 22 points over Jeremy.  In the team competition, the race has narrowed to a single point.  Emanuel Wagler and Adrian Graber still lead with a total of 98 points and are followed by Noah Callahan and Jeremy Wildman at 97.  All in all, six teams are within shouting distance of the leaders with Dale and Richard Yoder, and Noah Miller and Galen Lengacher, tied for 6th place at 84 and just 14 points from the top.  As a group the average score for the week was 41.80, down almost a half a stroke from last week's 42.18.
