Mid Am Heads Into 3rd and Final Round At Wildfire

Lakefield, ON: With the second round in the books Graham Hill of Bright’s Grove continues to hold the lead at the Investors Group Ontario Mid-Amateur Championship at Wildfire Golf Club near Lakefield.

 

Hill, 25, matched his opening round score with a three under par 69 on day two to get him to six under par (138) for the Championship. His round was highlighted by an eagle at the par five twelfth hole. Over the course of two rounds the 2005 Amateur champion has played the par 4’s and par 3’s at even par and has played the par 5’s at six under par. He will carry a slim one stroke lead into the final round on Thursday.

 

Larry Cooper of Oakville is a shot behind Hill alone in second place after posting a 69 in round two giving him a two-day total of 139 (-5). Despite a bogey on the second hole Cooper, 54, put together a solid round which featured birdies at nine, eleven, sixteen and the par five eighteenth.

 

Torontonative Scott Sinclair rounds out the top three with a two day total of 141 (-3). The 30 year old carded three birdies to offset a pair of bogeys to post a one under par 71 in round two and sits three back of the lead heading into the third and final round.

 

The Investors Group Men’s Mid-Amateur Championship showcases Ontario’s best male golfers over the age of 25.  After the completion of second round play the field was cut to the low 62 golfers. Final round action will get under way at 7:30 on Thursday morning. The final group of Hill, Cooper and Sinclair will tee off at 10:50am.

Trent Tourney Won By Petes Team

Under clear skies on Thursday, 68 golfers participated in the seventh annual Excalibur Golf Tournament at Peterborough Golf & Country Club, helping to raise more than $21,000 in support of Trent University’s varsity programs and athletes.

Sponsored by Bell, the tournament was a shotgun scramble format that included contests throughout the day coordinated by some of Trent’s student varsity athletes. Golfers were also treated to some fabulous refreshments on the course, provided by Aramark. After a day at the course, guests were invited to a reception and dinner at Trent University. The gourmet food was donated entirely by Aramark.


All proceeds from the annual Excalibur Golf Tournament go towards supporting the varsity program at Trent University and athletic financial awards. These awards are designed to assist student athletes with a record of outstanding academic and athletic performance and demonstrated financial need. Each donation is matched dollar-for-dollar by the government’s Ontario Trust for Student Support (OTSS) program.


“As we continue to build our varsity program at Trent, it is important that we support our student athletes any way we can to help them succeed both academically and athletically,” said Bill Byrick, director of Athletics at Trent. “The athletic scholarships and bursaries that will be created through the proceeds of this tournament will help to attract great athletes to Trent and assist them in reducing their financial challenges. On behalf of our athletes, thank you to all of the sponsors and participants of this event. It is inspiring to see the amount of support in the community for our varsity program and for our student athletes.”


The 2011 Winning Foursome title went to the VIP team of leaders behind the Peterborough Petes, general manager Dave Reid, head coach Mike Pelino and assistant coach Jody Hull, together with hockey commentator and former NHL player Greg Millen. Winners of Closest-to-the-Pin were Laurie Robertson (Ladies) and John Casserly (Men). Longest Drive winners were Marilyn Strain (Ladies) and Todd Vandonk (Men).

Congratulations and thanks go out to everyone who participated, with special appreciation to the many generous sponsors who helped make this year’s event such a success.
