In wet weather, Bradley and Williams the leaders at Valley Club

Rain delays at President’s Cup tournament


Persistent rain was something of a factor and a bother Friday and Saturday when The Valley Club staged its President's Cup 36-hole stroke play golf tournament for 29 men and seven women.

Golfers endured a pretty good soaking, but the wet weather didn't bother Carmen Bradley or Suzanne Williams.

They emerged as the top overall golfers by comfortable margins—Bradley winning men's low gross by three strokes and Williams leading the women by a bunch.

In the Men's Flight 1, Bradley (76-76 for 152-144) was the winner over Neil Bradshaw (78-77 for 155-149). Jack Dies (81-78 for 159-141) was first net and John Baker (81-76 for 157-143) ended up as second net.

Williams (78-78 for 156-140) was by far the top woman.

First gross golfers in the other men's flights were Rich Fabiano and Dick Toomey. Second gross finishers on the day included Mike O'Neil, Jay Cassell and Marilyn Celano. First net golfers were Richard Shelton, Chet Stephens and Jeri Waxenberg, while second net went to Kurt Funkhouser, Jim Latta and Claire Bailey.

Flight winners in net and gross received engraved pewter tankards in addition to their merchandise credits.
