It was a much better day than the last tournament. The weather was great. It was pretty warm but there was a cool breeze which made it very comfortable. Last tournament we only had 16 pars among 41 men, today we had 25 pars and two birdies among 43 men. Lou Rezoagli got one on the 157 yard, par 3, seventh hole and Jim Bradley got one on the 259 yard, par 4, first hole. There was another tie for overall low (net) score. Both Andy Malone and John Agnoli had 27 but Andy won it on the first hole where he had a lower score than John. FULL STORY
