Norton and Middleton Win Top Honors in Invitational

The 2012 ASMC Member-Guest tournament was a smashing success, with Bob Norton and Bob Middleton winning the first flight and Allan Miner and Bob Nice winning the second flight.

Pete Pappas and Jose Pappas took second in the Member-Guest first flight, followed by Danny Braga and Carlo Moglia; Ryan Muller and Jeff Schwab; Mark Houge and Steven Perez; and Bob Alustiza and Jim Buick.

In the second flight on the Member-Guest, Bob Gadsby and George Snell took second place, followed by Bob Twaddle and Jon Twaddle; Wayne Fort and Les Fort; Shanne Carvalho and Rodney Carrillo; and Mike Cloward and Dean Sturtevant.

In the Member-Member contest, Garth Watrous and Jack Smith won the first flight and Frank and Josh Antunovich won the second flight.

Other winner in the first flight of the Member-Member were Bill Daitchman and Franz Vaiarello; Gerry Catnlano and Dave Schulz; John and Curt Christenson; and Frank Paz and Billy Klinkefus.

In the second flight of the Member-Member, second place went to Steve Olson and Ed Arredondo, followed by Mike Fort and Wells Wenger; Jack Marshall and Bob McCormick and Dave Webb and Charlie May.

Tournament chairman Gary Lovell did a terrific job of organizing and keeping the clubhouse filled with terrific appetizers as players came in off the course so that everyone was able to grab a bite and hang around after their round.

One last note: In the closest-to-the hole competition, Curt "Fuzzy" Stephens scored an ace. Well done, Fuzzy!

Travis Stephens is the Club Champion

Travis Stephens won the 2012 Aptos Seascape Club Championship, defeating Gary Gogol in a 36-hole playoff match, played at scratch.

Phil Trounstine, who lost to Stephens in the Championship Fight, went on to win the Director's Flight in a tough match against Matt Ryan.

Steve Henridques won the First Flight, besting Jay Karafa. Former ASMC President John Peterson won the Second Flight over John Camarena.

Peter Profido won the Third Flight over Breese White; Frank Antunovich took out John Cranston wo win the Fourth Flight, and Mike Howley beat Ray Geisick in the finals of the Fifth Flight.

The winners were presented with trophies at the ASMC annual meeting, where outgoing President Bob Tomasi was also awarded a trophy for his two years of great leadership. Incoming President Danny Braga took the reins and promptly won the raffle for members who had brought guests to the Member-Guest tournament.

Well Done Steve -- ASMC's Bottle Exchange

It took months of negotiations, planning, finding the right materials and art, but ASMC Board Member Steve Olson made sure we got a new box for bottles of divot mix.

Paid for by ASMC, the box is there for players to pick up a refill when they make the turn at Number 10.

The board's hope is that players will be more diligent about refilling divots on fairways now that there's a better chance of having a full bottle of divot mix on their carts.
