August 11, 2012 - Weekend Group - Individual Net and NCGA Net Amateur Qualifying


Bob Benefiel congratulating Mark Edgar, the NCGA Net Am Qualifer
On Saturday, August 11th, everyone prepared for a warm, hotly-competitive day. The temperature was 105*, and Mark Edgar was even hotter than that! In fact, on the back nine, he was on fire! Yes, Mark Edgar blew away the field in the NCGA Net Amateur Qualifier “fire-ing” a second-best-ever 74 from the Gold Tees, which included a sub-par 34 on the back nine!! Mark’s net score was a scorching 61!! After the round, Mark’s playing partners; Lonnie Podgorny, Wayne Urbani and George Yanez were complaining more about losing their regular “Rabbit” game to Mark than they were about the heat! Mark now goes on to Sectional Qualifying on September 13. Good luck Mark! By the way, Mark credits much of his recent success on the acquisition of an old, late ‘40’s early ‘50’s sand wedge. Have him show it to you sometime!

Bryan Springer, Dave Spring and Greg Taca
Mark’s closest competitor in the regular net competition was Greg Taca who shot an 81 (net 66) for second place. Third place went to Greg Leuterio with an 83 (net 68). Fourth place went to new member Tim Ramirez who shot 80 (net 72). Welcome to the club, Tim! Considering the number of birdie opportunities you had, I suspect that next time you’ll enter our side skins game! There was a tie for fifth place between Bryan Springer with a 91 (net 73) and Dick Jones 87 (net 73), however, Bryan’s lower back nine net score proved to be the tie-breaker. Bryan, by the way, is our Player of the Year point leader with 1,930 points-to-date.
