Teamplay Starts Strong

Our team has played its first four matches: we won at Blackhorse; we tied at home against Pajaro; we lost at Boulder Ridge (22-14); and, we defeated Boulder Ridge at Seascape (25-11). So far, we are leading our group in the competition for the playoffs. We have a match at home against Blackhorse next week and a match at Pajaro on the 28th. As we defeated Boulder Ridge by more points than they took from us we would win in the event of a tie in our group.

The Spring Medal

The Spring Medal Championship is one of the most demanding tournaments of the year. Players compete over 36 holes of stroke play in this 2-week event to claim victory. While the field is flighted, the champion can come from any flight to win the top prize. The greens were fast this week and it took a steady putter to get the job done. This year Ray Geisick earned top honors turning in a 2-round net 136. Well done Ray! Other scores of note include Jay Karafa 140, Jim Geesman and Jeff Stanga each finishing with a net 141 and Gary Lovell came in with a 146.
