-Notre Dame women have a little more respect this morning after routing Maryland, 80-49, last night to punch their ticket to the Final Four in Denver next Sunday. Earlier in the evening, UCon had beat Kentucky, 80-65, to advance. The two winners, both #1 seeds, meet for the fourth time this year next Sunday night while the other two #1 seeds, Baylor and Stanford, meet in the other game to decide who goes for the championship on Tuesday night. Note: If Baylor wins out, they will become the first college team to complete a basketball season at 40 and 0. That would be something but I'ld rather see the Irish returning home with the trophy, the one that slipped from their hands when Texas A&M beat them in the final last spring up in Indy. Note 2: Skylar Diggins got her first triple double in the win with 22 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds.
-At Lakeview last night, Dave Wininger and Curt Johnson won the Tuesday afternoon scramble on the cards after collecting three birds, an eagle and five pars to shoot five under. Doug Denson and Mike Bird had five birds and four pars to tie the winners at five under while Short Jeffers and Lee Wininger had five birds but a bogey at the last to fall out of the card draw. Terry Butcher and Colin Padgett finished at three under. Of note: Doug Denson's approach shot at #8 from 112 yards ran down the flag stick before hitting the green and, unfortunately for Denson and Bird, bounding backwards and coming to a stop just off of the putting surface some 25 feet from the pin.
-At Lakeview: Eric and the boys will continue to aerate the greens today. Six, seven and eight were finished yesterday and were in play for the scramble. There will be a note at the clubhouse on the holes under renovation and which golfers should bypass.
-Heading to B-town.
