Week 14-Crossover Matches.......Mertz 4th in City Championship...Keeley Sinnard tops Mike Schulz in Match Play!

With the heat index over 100 degrees your Bud Light team takes to the fairways and greens of the Carroll Country Club to play Larry's Automotive from the Zach Johnson division. Making the call to the 1st tee will be long time subscriber, top local amateur, highly successful and more veteran golfer Craig Mertz who is coming off a 4th place finish in the weekends Carroll City Championship. Mertz's tournament started on Saturday morning with a top shot as he fell behind by a shot to 2008 Bud Light Golfer of the Year Mike Schulz who proclaimed that it was his first and last tournament lead over the veteran. Mertz who was the elder of a few years in the championship nine hung tough with the youngsters and even out drove them on a couple of occasions. The always solid putter had several chances to make a move on the field but the old flat stick just did not shine in the usual Mertz fashion. Congrats Mr. Mertz.

Joining the 4th place finisher will be East Lake Okoboji's finest boat driver Bud Two Troy Auen, your Captain Mike Franey and 2009 Bud Light Golfer of the Year Steve Sinnard. Sinnard finished 14th in the City Championship and Franey was the big 2nd Flight winner. 2008 Bud Light Golfer of the Year Mike Schulz will be subbing for Papa Joe Pick and the Soggy Subs.
