Memorial Day Classic

On Monday, May 27th at 8:30 am 16 elite level athletes (well... athletes) toe the starting line of the Moab Disc Golf Club's Memorial Day Classic tournament. The tournament was organized into an opening round of 18 holes after which the scores would be tallied up before a second round of 9 holes to determine the overall winner. Competitors were paired into groups of four and the competition began! On any given hole you could expect to see a collection of Hyzers, Anhyzers, rollers, forehands and tomahawks all of which moved the players one stroke closer to their goal of winning the Memorial Day Classic. We knew it was a good tournament when the competition was so tight after the first round but no one could have expected what happened at the end of the second round. After 27 holes there was a three-way tie for first place with Chris Schaaf, Landon Mcellhiney and Marc Grimes all even at par. It took two more holes of "sudden death" golf to determine that Chris would be our 2013 Memorial Day Classic Champion! What could be more exciting?

Chris Shcaaf FOR THE WIN!
