Our thanks as always to Stephen Powell for all of his hard work and organization behind the scenes.

Koetstra and Hietala are Aces

It was nice to get back to golf again after last weeks rain out and two golfers had even more reason to celebrate the round.

Andy Koetstra and Kory Hietala each shot a hole-in-one this evening. For Hietala it came on hole 3 with a 7 iron and for Koetstra it was jarred on hole 15 with a PW.

Andy and Kory all smiles after their aces tonight.

Congratulations to both of you.

The standings saw a bit of movement as the Fivesome dropped out of third place while the Whizbangers now have some company in second with the KGB. The Fat Shafts increased their lead atop the standings with the low round of the night. Five teams in total  posted scores in the 90’s.
