Love Mom and Dad 1 col. x 3" (actual size) took triple bogey 8 on Hole 2. But played the rest of the course in two over. Austin Holder was one stroke behind with a 42. The Chargers had eight players on the course and seven of them posted scores of 47 or better. Hunter Tray- lor and Colin Craig both had 46s and Jed Evans shot 47. Pike Central shot a 162 last Monday at Wood Me- morial and thought they had lost the match by two strokes. But later found out one of Wood's players turned him- self in for signing an incor- rect scorecard. Due to the wet weather they have been having, a ditch that runs across the first hole, that is normally dry, had water in it on Mon- day. Several players had hit their balls into the ditch. It is over a hill and can't be seen from the tee box on hole one. Paxton Schwom- eyer couldn't find his ball on hole one. He and his playing partners thought it had gone in the ditch. So he dropped from there with a one stroke penalty. He went on to re- cord a 40 and Wood won the match by two strokes. However, Schwomeyer lives across the street from the golf course. As he was walking home after the match, he saw a ball by the road and when he checked on it, learned it was his ball. Schwomeyer reported it. Be- cause it was out of bounds, the penalty would have been stroke and distance. Conse- quently, he signed an incor- rect scorecard. With him disqualified, Wood Memo- rial's score was now cal- culated by a player whose score was 46. So Wood's team score was 166 instead of 160, making Pike Central the winner by four strokes. "Props to that young man. It doesn't get any more hon- est than that," said Pike Cen- tral Coach Jarrod Gideon.
