HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1995-11-29, Page 1010 -THE HURON [XPO$ITOR, November 29, 111+$5 Local golfer im Seaforth's Tony Greidanus is in the third year of a golf scholarship at an Eric, Pennsyl- vania college, and is now the top-ranked golfer on that school's NCAA Division 11 varsity squad. He was home for the American Thanksgiving holiday last week and says he still doesn't think he is playing the game the way it should be played, and he is capable. Greidanus, 23, of James Street in Seaforth won two tournaments in a row then finished a strong third in another during a hot streak in September. Also captain of the Lakers this year, he maintained an average score of 77 in nine tournaments in total last year, five above the average par of 72 for the courses. In five of those tournaments he finished in the top -10. He golfs for Mercyhurst in Erie, Penn. The school com- petes ih the Great Lakes Con - roves at U.S. college TONY GREIIOANUS ... best average ference with schools such as Michigan and Ohio. Greidanus fired back-to-back 73s to win the Pitt -Bradford Golf Invitational then Mer- cyhurst College Fall Golf Clas- sic this torrid September. The following week in a bigger tournament at Slippery Rock, Penn. his 74 was good enough for third. The. local athlete is still a familiar face to golfers locally because he's worked at the Seaforth Golf and Country Club for the past nine years. He says he's not a "power player" and characterizes his game as: "steady, play for pars...and the ability to scramble." Greidanus had the besi average, most team medalist honours and most first -place tournament medalist honours on the 12 -man varsity this year, where he plays with a couple of other Canadians: Mike Pat- tison of Beaton near New- market and Bryce Bahun of Saskatchewan. Last year, in his sophomore season, he broke his thumb and only played one tournament in the fall, then never reached his stride again in the spring. In his first year at Mercyhurst he says he "struggled", finishing Dumpers qualify for Provincials GRADS 2 PARR LINE 1 Grads take the lead in overtime as quick goals were scored by Chris Goris and Tony Van Den Heuvel with keen passes by Martin Wynja and Mac O'Neil. Parr Line scored the first goal done by Jamie Porier assisted by Grant Bergsma . and goal tending by Roy Fisker. Parr Line men put up a good light but couldn't come back to tie the game up in overtime. RIDERS 1 DUMPERS 2 Dumpers were a little slow getting started as 'ugly' scored the first goal. Great stick handling (up and over into the net). This fellow played well in front of the opposing goaltender - as you can see it pays off in goals. Second goal scored by the main 'Man' Van Den Neucker as he is three feet from opposing goalie and just drills the ball past his head. Wow! What a shot! Lots of help came from Jerry Wright, Steve Eckert Jr., John Cairns and 'Huck' Harold! But, the Riders were no slouches as Lawrence Vink squeezes the ball into the net with a quick pass from speedy Jerry Zwep. Great game• guys, you gave them quite a run. Congratulations Dumpers on winning the tourney in Palmerston and now qualifying for the Provincials - great work! ROYALS 0 RAIDERS 2 I'm not sure who's turn it was to win but the Raiders had power and steam to spare as goals were scored by Earl Pennington and quick draw Steve Leonhardt. Passes came from speedy Derek McDonald, Jack Holmes and Steve Sievers. Raiders goalie Mr. Dearing made great saves. But, the Royals couldn't buy a goal or bribe the referee for a break at all. The Royals' goalie is also a Mr. Dearing (boy, is this confusing). These gents are great goaltenders. Keep up the good work - `right Dad' as the other Mr. Dearing cheers from the bleachers! WINTHROP 5 SOCIALS 4 Winthrop WINS the first game of the season!!! Winthrop's goalie was hot -. only letting 4 goals blow by her. Great goaltending Ms. 'D"A'. Winthrop's goals were scored by swifty Susan Arts, mean machine Janice Finlayson and wee Deb Murray. Keen passes by Donna Arts, Tina Bosman, Jacquie McNichol and one - arm -bandit Mary Verberne - keep the arm up Mary. Socialites knabbed a few goals scored by Theresa De Corte, Marg Henderson, Barb Elliott and Tracey Eckert. Assistance came from Charlene Townsend, Sandra Hunt and Liz Coghlin. Good game ladies! PERTH 1 PARR LINE 4 Perth ladies score the first goal against Parr Line ladies as Perth's Liz Rotheritsch blows the ball into the top comer of the net, assisted by Kathy Butson. Great goal ladies. Parr Line's seive of a goalie, Norm, pulled herself at half-time and let someone else try their hand at goaltending. Parr Line's hat - trick was achieved by smilie Glenda Chaput as she gets up off of her knees and Sandra Wilson pops in the fourth goal. Lots of help came from Cheryl Kruse and Cathy Innes. KNIGHTS 2 CYCLONES 2 Knights outplayed' themselves as goals were scored by Jeff Jackson and Steve Selves. These two gents were the main team. Great game guys! Hey! Cyclones had no time to be taking a rest as a couple of goals were scord by Eddy Hessels with awesome passing from Rob Cornelis, Murray Smith and Dan O'Neil Jr. Good game by both teams.

Greidanus is in the third year of a four-year course in hotel, restaurant, and institute management at the liberal arts school. The scholarship is for half his tuition, which cost in the vicinity of 510,500 last year. He says he's been golfing since he was in Grade 6, for about a dozen years now, and he would like to be a club pro somewhere when he finishes his schooling. He admires club pro Steve Benneu, formerly of Seaforth, who has done well for himself in the same field. But before then he'd like to shoot another round like he did back here in Seaforth last sum- mer, when he carded a five - under 65 one day in July, in a foursome with Wade Lee, Luke McMillan and Dave McNairn. "We were playing for a little bit of cash," Tony says. "The putts were dropping and...I was in the zone." fiz9-on e Winter Race Jackets • Gift Certificates • Winter Clothing GREAT CHRISTMAS GIFT IDEAS We'll be in Seaforth WED.
