Retirees Corner

BY RUSTY ROESCH

The Springfield Retirees are currently tied for second in our Division with many more matches to come.

We won 25-11 over Country Club of Fairfax at home on May 4. We had four three-point winning teams: Pat Noble/Bill Schneider, Steve Barker/Greg Gerlach, George Alapas/Tony Caggiano, and Rex Simmons/Paul DiRenzo. SGCC swept the sweeps with Pablo Garvin/Don Frederick taking first place.

Unfortunately, we lost a challenging match on the road at Chantilly Country Club 21½ to 14½ on May 12. It was a near perfect day for golf with Mark Waters/Pablo Garvin scoring the only three-point win while Steve Bartlett turning in a low gross score of 77. Low nets of 72 were recorded by Mark Waters, Rob Jacobs, F.D. Rosenberger, and John Moore. Mike Saylor and Steve Soules were close behind with net 73’s. The bright spot of the day was John Moore/Walter Burkhardt taking first place in the sweeps.
