Results of 2009 Golf Tournament

The winning Foursome this year poses with all grins! Jim Clelland '80, Brian Boyer '80 (Official Physicist posing with our Official Shirt), Paul Mundy '85 (with "The Beast") and Gary Black '82 '84 '86 (with ceramic/titanium hips!). Their names are currently being engraved on The Harry Groves Memorial Cup!*

Longest Putt- Bob Gabel '80. (16' 5") Bob has received the services of "Horace" The Golden Putter for the next year. We will be seeing occasional updates from their travels. I still owe him a golden tee!

Closest to the Pin- Mark Tygel '71. (5' 6") Mark has retired to State College and Coach Groves has turned him into a Track and Field Buff in return for golf lessons. Mark has procured the use of "Barney" the Golden Divot Tool and a golden tee. We will also see periodic updates of Mark and Barney leading "the good life". (Why did Mark retire? Answer: Because he could!)

Longest Drive- Gary Black '82 '84 '86. In a remarkable upset, Gary bested both Shisler's for the honor this year. "Mike" the Silver Divot Tool and a silver tee will soon be galavanting around the world. Let's hope Gary takes pictures!

Best Shot- Kevin Kelly O'Brien '80. Kelly nearly decapitated Judy Lynn Weaver on the 18th tee with a shot that defies all laws of physics. Only Leon Woolford's 2006 shot rivals his.

The Numbnuts Award- Bob Hudson '84. Bob actually drove Coach around for 27 holes of golf. Psychological counseling for Bob may be coming out of our profits for this labor.

The Rob Whiteside Brotherhood Award- Brian Boyer.

The Longest Trip- Brian Boyer '80. Brian actually scheduled a lecture in New York so he could divert to play his first golf tournament with us. He came all the way from Los Alamos NM, one-time home of my idol Richard Feynman.

No one hit a hole-in-one this year, thus the $10,000 prize went unclaimed. Next year's prize may end up being a Cadillac Escalade (and I'm not making this up!). The odds of someone hitting one this year were 1:78. The odds will be markedly better next year, as attendance will surely double. Don't miss out on being the recipient of such a great prize and the ability to taunt the rest of us for years to come! Enter the event today, the web site form is up and running.

* Coach Groves is still very much alive and can still kick our *ss!
