Braga and Pappas Advance to NCGA Four Ball Finals; Finish 14th Out of 60 Teams

Danny Braga and Pete Pappas, who qualified for the NCGA's 46th Annual Four Ball Sectional Qualifying round during the ASMC Two-man Eclectic in March, ham-and-egged their way to a sizzling 62 at the NCGA tourney at Rancho Canada, tying for first and advancing to the championship, June 24-25 at Spyglass and Quail Lodge.

The other ASMC qualifiers, Tim Carl and Don Urfer, also did the ASMC proud, shooting 68 -- not bad, given the cold and windy conditions that day -- but not quite good enough to make it to the championship.

Here a report from Danny about their showing:

"We finished tied for 14th out of 60 qualifying teams with a total of 134 (69-65).  The winning team from Boulder Creek GC won with a 127.  Pete shot a gross 82 at Spyglass on a cool and misty first day.  Quail Lodge saw us play better along with the weather."
