Welcome to the York County Amateur Golf Association!
2010 McClarin Plastics Inc. Senior and Super Senior Championship
This past Sunday, June 13th @ Valley Green Golf Course, Scott Knouse ended is two year absence from the winners circle of a YCAGA Championship by clinching the 2010 Senior Championship. Scott one the event with an even par 71 with Lance Smith, George Troutman and Todd Kennedy just one stroke back @ 72. At the turn Scott was tie for 2nd with William Chase and Mike Myers all posting a 1 under 34. The clubhouse leader at the turn was George Troutman, who toured the front nine in 3 under 32. Todd Kennedy (the Tournament Sponsor) posted an even par 35 to hold the 4th at the turn. Lance Smith posted was the first to post a 1 over par 72 in the clubhouse followed by George Troutman in the next foursome. Neither player had to wait long as Knouse was in the very next foursome when lightning struck at the 15th. Not the lightning from mother nature, though she had added a steady rain to the mix, but Scott's own lightning bolt, in the form of a chip in eagle. Coming into the 15th Scott had run into some trouble posting bogey's on 11, 13 and 14 putting him at +2 for the round. The eagle on 15 followed by pars on 17 and 18 allowed Scott to post an even par 71 to take the lead in the clubhouse. Todd Kennedy started the back nine with a bogey on 10 and was unable to find one of those elusive birdies on the final 8 holes to tie Scott.
The 2nd Super Senior Championship was one by Tom Schonauer with a 78. This was the 2nd Super Senior Championship and Tom was able to hold off Dale Bievenour and Gerry Walter (80's) to win his 2nd Super Senior Title.
