Yellow highlighted are holes that there were Birdies.  There were no skins won so all skin money ($132.00) will be returned to the Team Captains. 

 

There was one team that was 5 under par scratch (2nd place net) Team Leirey, and one team 2 over par scratch (ouch) Team C.Halpin.

 

There was one no-show leaving Team Leirey to rotate players but coming in 2nd place.

 

Congratulations to Team Freeman, 1st place, and now holder of the empty can of Whoop-Ass.

 

Here is hoping everyone enjoyed playing in the Wisconsin scramble format.   See you all at the Outing.
