Members,
Chris Riley and his trained monkey Ron Bates (subbing for Erick Manda who was subbing for Rick Manda who was subbing for Spiro Agnew) lost to Tony and Bill. Ron did OK against Bill 12-8, Chris played like crap against Tony and lost 7-13. 

Paul Dwayne(aka Duane) and Kevin Zaphir initially looked to be winners at the table after the round. However when your court reporter sat down mayhem ensued where Ron Just trying to help Bates asked me about how to apply the strokes to the match, at that point I lost my shit. Turns out Paul and Kevin didn’t win outright against Mike Gallagher and Craig Marsh. I verified the corrected scoring and determined it was a 20-20 tie. Then I told the groups to go play some kind of playoff contest to decide a winner. Then it got quiet when Paul mentioned that Mike and Craig had left the premises. So, each match was examined by comparing the cards, hardest hole first for a team winner. It only took the hardest hole, number 16. Mike and Kevin tied. Paul lost to Craig. So,Craig and Mike will move on. 

Gary and Ken held Kevin Horgan and me tight the whole night. It came down to the last 2 holes where we edged away for the 21-19 win. Gary and Ken had a make or break putt on the last hole where Gary left a putt 2 inches short coming down 6 foot from above the hole. Brutal.

Allie and Kevin Riley dispatched Steve G. and Keith M. 23-17 to advance.

For all the teams out of the playoffs: It’s getting dark early so seek out playing on some of the other sides of the property (talk to the starters when doing so. I still need accurate counts of players.)

Paul Dwayne has agreed to sub in for Craig Marsh (out the next 2 weeks for business travel). 

Check the schedule and good luck to those still in it.
Regards, Luke and Rusty
