Teams include husbands and wives, fathers and daughters, mothers and sons, friends and neighbors. The event, one of the CSGA’s oldest and most historic, featured gross and net divisions, allowing players of all backgrounds and skill levels to compete. The team of Paul Schaeffer and Megan Weaver defeated Andy and Nathalie Filler on the first playoff hole to capture the Gross Championship after tying with rounds of 75 (+3), and the team of Ed Day and Kara Gormley were victorious in the net division with a round of four under-par 68 to win by three shots.
