Max Vitale said the weather turned out beautiful for golf Sunday, and so was his 77 score at The Lake Club.
He outlasted five others to win the u17 Coaches Burger Bar division of the Greatest Golfer’s ‘Joe’ Dickey Electric Juniors division.
“On No. 4, I punched one out and stuffed it, and if it wasn’t so soggy – it woulda’ dunked,” said Vitale.
Luciana Masters used the energy of her first competitive round of the year to carry her to a win in the u17 Lane Funeral Home division.
“It was pretty rough for the first time out – but I hit some good shots on the Par 3s,” said Masters.
Forty players teed off Sunday to open the 2023 season — coming from 17 different courses in the Valley and the Pittsburgh and Akron areas. The next Greatest event tees off Saturday at Reserve Run. It is a special 2-player scramble format – allowing players to team up with peers, parents and pals of any age. Registration deadline is Thursday at noon. Juniors play proudly supported by Youngstown Tile Retail Design Center.
