2017 QBC Golf Tournament
The 2017 AFA Quarterback Club of Denver’s golf tournament at the Eisenhower Golf Club, at the Air Force Academy, was held on Friday, June 30th. Fifteen teams enjoyed a shotgun start at 8:00 am on the Blue Course. (Recently, Sports Illustrated named Eisenhower as one of the 10 best golf courses on a college campus while Golf Digest has ranked the blue course as the third-best course in Colorado.)
Prizes were awarded at a wonderful all – American lunch buffet.
First Place went to Team 1A with a score of 57: Jason Blanchard, Cass Casada, Donald Enger, & Bob Fretzs
Second Place went to Team 18B with a score of 63: Arnold Thomas, Brad Bernero, Robert Edmisson, & Mark Breuer
After a three way tie with scores of 65, Third Place was awarded to Team 15B: Daryl Brady, Joe Loveland, & Robert Vine
Team 15A – James Mason, Jim Metcalf, & Ricky Saul – was pretty certain they won the Best Looking Team Award. We will be expecting them to defend their title next year.
Other notable winners:
Men’s Closest to the Pin – Hole 3 – went to Jim Metcalf
Women’s Closest to the Pin – Hole 7 – went to Susan Horton
Men’s Closest to the Pin – Hole 13 – went to Joe Tuccinardi
Men’s Longest Drive – Hole 16 – went to Gary Bone
