Tom Cone (Champ Flight) Terry Lewis (A Flight) Don Elsass (C Flight)!
Championship Flight: Tom Cone birdies his final hole to tie Ted Cox and then beats him on the card playoff for his first victory of the season. Both Cone and Cox lit up the front side, cone with four birdies and Cox with and eagle at four and a birdie at eight. Both players turned at 2 under par 34 and then fired 37’s on the back for one under 71’s. Right behind them was a pair of even par 72’s; Jim Hunsuck and Bill Hall. Hunsuck grabbed third and Hall fourth on the card. A Flight: Terry Lewis cruised around in fine fashion yesterday with a 73. Len McAlister finished in second place at 75. Wayne Nixon cashed for the first time in a while winding up in third place with 76. Roy Santonil, Lee Sargent and Rex Mills all finished tied for 4th with 77’s, but it was Santonil beating them all on the card for the gift card. B Flight: Marshall Wolfe had the round of the year for him winning B flight by 3 shots at 76. Lonnie Nichols also played great and fired a 79 good enough by one shot for second place. Three players shot 80 will Bill Maryman getting third place and Robert Winfrey fourth, leaving John Love in fifth place after the playoff. C Flight: Don Elsass captured first place by only one shot over Gary Graham on Wednesday. Elsass won with 83 and Graham was second with 84.
