Sr. Metro Team drops one.

Roger Hamm Leave a comment

The team played at Valleywood golf course on Friday, July 26th against a solid Gross team and lost 6-18. This is our 2nd worst defeat of the year only trailing the 5 points we collected at Columbia on May 17.

@Steve-Slivken takes team MVP for the week with a nice net 74 and collects 5 points.
@Dan-Olson comes in with a net 76 but can only collect 1 point in a close match with a net 73.
@Doug-Maday, fighting a back issue, and @Jim-Husnik get shut out.

The team remains in fourth place overall with 147 points. It looks like University and Braemar are running away with it and they took in 22 and 16 respectively.

What can I say, Everything I predicted came true last week. @Jesse-Doughty got another skin followed by Josh Bloom getting one as well. Putt for Dough won AGAIN… Fairway to Heaven took CTB to the wood shed. Foreplay ended up leapfrogging CTB and is now their division leader. Week 14 here we come.

8-Man Senior Team Victorious

Steve Slivken Leave a comment

The Brookview 8-Man Senior Team Tuesday defeated the team from Meadowbrook 9 1/2 – 2 1/2. Although the score seems dominating, most of the matches were very close. To highlight, leading off the team of Tom Hansen / Larry Hahka won their match 3-0. Batting second, the team of Steve Slivken / Forrest Nelson won a tighter than it seems match 2 1/2 – 1/2. Batting third, Steve Hartmann / Mark Kraus won their match 3-0, and batting cleanup the team of Charlie Tsatsos / Steve Houtz lost a tough one 2-1. Congrats to Mr. Hartmann for firing a 70 after getting a cortisone shot Monday. Maybe all seniors 55-plus should get a shot or two. After multiple cancellations due to flooding, etc. our final regular season match will be at Meadowbrook Tuesday, July 30th. Then hopefully on to the playoffs. Stay tuned!

Sr. Metro Team pulls out narrow win

Roger Hamm Leave a comment

At Green Haven playing against a tough Wirth team, we pull out a 13-11 win.
@Jim-Sanford shoots a smooth 78 (net 72) and is only able to get 2 points against his opponents same net 72.
@Steve-Slivken Shoots a net 73 and is shut out versus a net 69
@Jim-Husnik shoots a net 71 and brings home 5 points
Anchor @Ted-Roberts also nets a 71 and takes all 6.

The Win moves us up to 4th place overall, just 17 behind the leaders. Again, none of the 3 teams ahead of us have yet to have their bye.

What a great Week. Putt for Dough climbed to the top of its division by winning 7 of its last 8 matches. Fairway to Heaven increased their overall lead against the rest of the field with a very strong performance. Next week we look to add another beautiful day and we are in a conference match up so good luck to every one. Flash of Greatness Jesse Doughty wins another skin? For all those High handicappers you have a few more weeks to get skins because I can guarantee next year we will have to change the game up a bit. I think possibly 2 low handicappers won a skin this year…. One of them won because I picked his name out of a hat.

16-Man Team Still Hot

Nick Schultz Leave a comment

The 16-Man Team brought the heat in it’s 7/14 match at Brookview. This was the first of the home-and-home second round match with the visiting Ponds at Battle Creek. The boys won 17.5 of the 24 available points on the day, positioning well for the next match on August 4th on the road.

The highlight of the day came out of the Krasen/Gallagher game where the two combined for 8 birdies and a best ball 67 to win a close match against some strong opponents.

If we can keep it going next month, we have a great shot at the playoffs.
