Bits and Pieces: Lion Girls Win Big, Presidents Cup, Big Girls, Irish

-The Loogootee Lions girls's basketball team subdued the Shoals Jug Rox by a score of 45-28.  At some point in the third quarter, they were up, 25-23, and then shut down their opponents while going on a scoring tear - led by Wynter Wagoner who seemed to get stronger as the game progressed.

-Presidents Cup:  Guess they played mostly in the rain yesterday.  Good day for the Americans as they went from 7-5 to 13-9.  In case you missed it, Tiger, the guy who used to be the best putter in the world but who now would love to make one every now and then,  did get a tally when he and Dustin Johnson beat Adam Scott and K.J. Choi in the early session (TW did make a putt on occasion but for the most part the short stick failed him; the word is though that the rest of his game is looking mighty fine). Today's single matches from the Waggle Room.

-Na Yeon Choi leads by one at the CME Group Titleholders tournament.  Her score of -7 is one up on Sandra Gal.  Morgan Pressel had a terrible day, shooting +6 with three double bogeys.  She's at +1 and tied for 16th place.

-From Asian Ladies Golfers Appreciation:  Hee Young Park playing golf in short shorts.  She's currently tied for 3rd at -4 at the CME Group Titleholders.

-The 7-3 Irish play the 3-7 Boston College team starting at 4 this afternoon.  Go Irish.

-Scramble at 11 this morning.  Best get away from the computer and get ready.  See some of you in a bit.  Btw, did get to the golf course yesterday afternoon but just for a walk.  Btw 2:  Aren't we supposed to get up to 58 today?  Weather here on the hill is cloudy and still cool at 46 degrees.
