Party Time – 1st Half in the Books

Congratulations to everyone who played nine holes without dying Tuesday. Results and Final First Half Standings are now posted.


In a pretty tight finish, the Wolfe Team emerges as 1st Half Champions with a 1-point margin over the Loew Team (don’t tell Jack – he’ll be steamed), 1.5 over the McEvilly Team, and 3 over the Nelson Team, which made a late push. The Wolfe Team will be making their 3rd straight playoff appearance, in quest of their 3rd straight league championship.


Congrats to Dave Delveaux on his 38 Tuesday night. I single him out because I somehow didn’t get his name down on the list that went to the newspaper. Dave Rieves was the low shooter with a 36, including six pars. In addition to those two, Andy Taylor, Jason Thomas, and new golfer Jeff Pollei shot 37’s, and Will Nagel and Chris Weber shot 39’s.


By the way, Jeff Pollei (who was subbing for David Miller Tuesday) would like to make himself available to the league as a sub. I will add him to the sub list, but his contact information is 608-263-7332 (w) and jpollei@uwsa.edu. Jeff’s line score was 001010111 (which is actually a binary score of 87). He really fell apart there at the end. (Edit: I just realized this doesn't mean much unless I explain that his line score shows zeroes for pars, 1's for bogeys, etc.)


Now that the first half is over, it’s time to relax a bit. Next Tuesday is the league scramble, followed by a world-famous Bill Scheer cookout. I got dinner payment from most of you on Tuesday. I will collect ($9.50) from the rest this coming Tuesday. You are not required to stay for dinner. Let me know if you plan not to stay. Tee times are set and are posted on the blog - upper right-hand corner.
