Bits and Pieces

Photo:  Hannah Lamar watching the action at last night's opening round of the volleyball sectional here in Loogootee.  The Shoals Jugrox upset the Vincennes Rivet Patriots in the first game and the Barr Reeve Vikings trounced the Washington Catholic Cardinals in the second.

-Saturday Morning Scramble will start at 10am - bring a jacket - supposed to get down below freezing tonight and only up to 46 degrees at tomorrow's 10am tee time.  We should finish in plenty of time for people to get over to JBA for the Lion-Cougar volleyball game.

-Did watch some of the world series the last two nights - first baseball I've watched this year.  Guess there are a lot of Cardinal fans in the area and no doubt they were disappointed (to say the least) in last night's ninth inning where the Cardinals gave up two runs and lost a game they had in their hip pocket.  Oh well...

-The girls playing in Taiwan:  Yani Tseng is two back heading into the third round.  A couple of Euros are in the lead: Azahara Munoz and Anna Nordqvist at seven under par.  More details of the second round at the Asia Pacific Golf Group.  I have no favorite though it would be nice if Yani could win one in her own homeland.  Another Taiwanese player, Candie Kung, is also in contention.  She's tied for third with Tseng.

-Sun's up as are the temperatures.  Might be a little cool for the average golfer, but for those of us reluctant to see the season end, conditions are more than adequate.  Breakfast first though.
