-One more team joined the Community League: Jonathan Kemp and brother Jeremiah took advantage of the opportunity to catch up with week one and played their week two event. That makes a total of eight teams in the Community League.
-League round of the week turned in by Mark Potts of the Tuesday League with a 34 followed by Mike Bird's 35 in the Thursday League and then Danny Jones (Tuesday Men) with a 36 (expect we'll get back to the more normal 33, 34 and 35 this week). Larry Sutton's 29 was the net low for the week with Danny Jones coming in second with a 30. Low team score for the week: Larry Sutton and Brent Courter's very nifty 61 on Tuesday.
-First tournament champions of the year are crowned with Larry Sutton and Brent Courter shooting the aforementioned 61 to overtake the Tuesday Men Team Handicapped Tournament leaders and win by a stroke in the final day of competition. They finished at -13 with Terry Butcher and Rob Sterling finishing second at -12. In the Thursday Tournament, Tony Wease and Charlie Sheetz cruised to a nine stroke win with the team of Jack Butcher and Rex Hudson tying the Home/Home team for second place at +1.
-This week starts the second tournament of the year, the four week, 36 hole Individual Handicapped event.
-Two eagles last week: Tuesday Men Rob Sterling on #8 and Short Jeffers on #6. (Have already had one this week - Mike Arvin, playing early, popped one in from the other side of the sandtrap at hole #2 last night.)
-It's raining out here on the hill - just started. Hurray - hope it stays for an hour.
-Super sub Dave Strange, carrying the load for the Elliott team on Thursday, is the current leader in the individual competition in the Thursday League. He leads Charlie Sheetz by a slim five points. Jack Divine leads the guys in the Tuesday Men's league, topping second placer Mike Arvin by 31 points. Chris Jones has taken the early lead in the Community League; he leads newcomer JD Simmons by four points.
-Tuesday Men play today after the hot Memorial Day weekend. Weather is breaking though, with rain, blessed rain, this morning and then clearing and getting hot again this afternoon. Course is dry and browning - Eric's been socking the water to the greens and the tee boxes, keeping them green. Course condition, though dry, is spiffy with the greens running fast and the fairways running hard. Mid August like conditions. One would think we could take advantage of that and shoot some lower scores. Not happening yet. Maybe this week.
-Tuesday Men - Come on Down!
