The other Pilgrim's Pride twosome,
Terry Berkenbile <strong>and</strong> David H<strong>and</strong>,
played to scores beyond those that their
h<strong>and</strong>icaps could offset, but not so high
that Goodman's stellar play couldn't
bring the team home No . 1 . On the
seventh hole, H<strong>and</strong> had the poor luck
to find one of
the few muddy
bunker lies on
the course . Few
scratch golfers
can h<strong>and</strong>le that
shot, <strong>and</strong> H<strong>and</strong>,
a 10-h<strong>and</strong>icapper,
was
unable to avoid
skulling his ball
over everything .
On the bright
side, the next
time H<strong>and</strong>
wants to send
a documentas
opposed
to a golf balllong-distance,
he'll be able
to use the
new Konica
fax/phone
he won in the
raffle during
post-round cocktails . Benefiting from
Pilgrim's Pride's medalist status is the
Shelton School . the recipient of a $3,000
Sky'I'el donation plus matching funds .
The second qualifier from the region
was iC Penney Co . . a seasoned squad that
had finished third in last year's Southwest
Regional . The team's combined net
score of 20-over 304 meant a trip to
the finals in Williamsburg, Va ., as well
as a $1,000 donation <strong>and</strong> matching
funds to the Dallas Can Academy. On
only their second hole, the twosome
of Leo Gispanski <strong>and</strong> Tony Haake
wimessed a bit of luck that should have
augured well for the rest of the day .
Gispanski's drive on the par-4 12th
stopped just 4 feet short of the
out-of-bounds stakes . He recovered
beautifully with a knockdown 6-iron
but foiled his own good deeds by
throwing away three strokes with a
series of bad chips around the green .
Just a hole ahead was the other JC
Penney twosome, Marshall Beere <strong>and</strong>
Steve Walsh . Beere's best shot of the
day may have come at the 398-yard
18th, a 5-iron
Bill Tolany from third-place Dr Pepper/SevemUp
lines up a long putl .
approach that
came to rest just
5 feet from the
cup . His 4-foot
birdie attempt
had a fair amount
of break, <strong>and</strong>
Beere misread it .
That's one thing .
But lipping out
the comebacker
<strong>and</strong> settling for
a bogey 5 after
hitting such a
terrific second
shot made the
10-h<strong>and</strong>icapper's
cheeks temporarily
match
his red golf shirt .
Walsh, a golfer
who steps up
to his shots <strong>and</strong>
swings without
hesitation,
was seen making an easy par on the
par-5 tenth after a tough downhill
putt lagged to within a foot .
Eight shots higher, at 312, was
the foursome from Dr Pepper/Seven-Up .
Two members of the thirdplace
team, John Clarke
<strong>and</strong> Tom Shuman . had the
advantage of being Gleneagles
members . The other two Dr
Pepper players, Mike McGrath
<strong>and</strong> Bill Tolany, play their golf
just up the road from
Gleneagles, at Stonebtiar C,C .
The Clarke-Shuman pairing
started on No . 15 <strong>and</strong> was
in full swing by the time
it reached No . 1, a 358-yard
par-4 dogleg right with a tree
that blocked Clarke's approach
shot, forcing him to leave it a tad short .
He chipped up skillfully to tap-in range
for his par, then watched in frustration
as Shuman, after recovering beautifully
from over the green, missed a 3-foot
par putt of his own .
Closest-to-the-pin honors were
claimed by Chris Sullivan of Outback
Steakhouse, whose iron shot on the
165-yard fourth hole snuck just inside
the position staked out by Mike O'Neill
of EDS . Sullivan won a Jaeger-LeCoultre
wristwatch in the Reverso style favored
by polo players of yore . The Low Gross
prize, sponsored by America West
Airlines <strong>and</strong> accompanied by free
airline tickets, went to Goodman,
while the Low Net award, sponsored
by Productivity Point International, went
to Billy Lenamond of NationsBank,
an t I-h<strong>and</strong>icapper who carded a net 66
(Goodman, per SkyTel rules, used up
his prize eligibility when he took Low
Gross) . Free travel also was in the cards
for Clarke of Dr Pepper/Seven-Up when
his <strong>business</strong> card was drawn from the
raffle basket <strong>and</strong> $1,000 in vouchers
from Carlson Wagonlit Travel were
recorded in his name .
Jerry Toenjes of Shell Oil hit a blast
of a tee shot on the Longest Drive hole,
No . 14, <strong>and</strong> walked off with a full set
of Butner Bubble golf equipment from
Taylor Made . Starting on the 17th,
Toenjes caught the 14th fairway at just
about its most <strong>and</strong> state . Realizing that
the sun <strong>and</strong> wind had dried out central
Texas <strong>and</strong> provided a tiny bit of extra
roll, the 5-h<strong>and</strong>icap Toenjes just relaxed
<strong>and</strong> "aired one out," as those long
drivers like to say .
First place Pilgrim's Pride . L-R: Dave H<strong>and</strong>.
