Kinsala Finishing the senior division season with four straight wins gave Don's Dairy Frost a 9-3 record and a share of first place. June twenty-sixth 15 to 5 victory over Wally's saw Melissa Greve strike out 9 batters and backed up by brilliant defense by Kathy Kent aQd Jackie Hutt. Triples by Melissa, Jenny Peterson and Samantha Barnacle provided the offense. July 7 featured a spectacular 17 strike out pit­ ching performance by Melissa Greve. Jody Justen's 4-4 along with the same by Lee Lindquist provided the 10 to 6 margin. July llths 16 to 2 win saw Sue Dowell and Lee Lindquist going 4-4 and Donna Zorn and Roberta Morgan playing spectacular defense. Don's final brought it all together with Melissa Greve striking out 11, Jody Justen slugging a grand slam homer while going 4-5, Greve going 5-5 and Samantha Barnacle, Sue Dowell and Lee Linquist finishing 3 for 3. First place - congratulations. Ponytail Divisions CRU Electronics became the second team in the records to go un­ defeated, and what a team effort it was. Winning 22-3 on July 5, Cissy Pinkstaff and Sarah Prust combined pitching talents to strike out 6 and allow only 7 hits and 3 runs. The of­ fense combined for 22 hits in­ cluding a triple from Jackie Weber, 3-3 from Jenny Prust and at least one hit each from the entire team. July fl found the perfect record challenged by Otto's girls and it took a 3 run homer in the fifth by Sarah Prust plus triples by Nancy Walsh and Lori Knaack in the 6th to pull out a 12-9 win. On July 7 CRU scored 5 runs in the 1st and continued to score in every inning for a 15-5 victory featuring Robin Geiger 3-4, Jackie Weber 3-5, Cheryl Martin 3-4. Sarah Prust and Cissy Pinkstaff again for a fine pitching job with 8 strikeouts and only 3 hits. CRU's final game had the team high on cloud nine. Sensing the perfect season, they again scored 5 in the first and at least 2 runs per inning thereafter. Sarah Prust ' celebrated with 2 homeruns and Jackie Weber with 3-4. It is only fitting that once again, - Prust and Pinkstaff pitched the final game and with the entire team support won 18 to 4. This perfect record is about com­ parable to a perfect 300 in bowling. Great effort! Second plaoje.... finishers, McHenry/Sa^ings and Loan won 5 of their last 7 starting with a 1 run victory June 23. Kelly Broderick hit for the circuit, a homer, triple, double and single, Karen Karpavicus a homer and double, Val Gilbert 4-5, and Sue Smith 3-4.

July 6, Otto's got revenge, winning 20 to 10 in spite of Savings & Loan's Sue Smith's striking out 8 and terrific defensive plays by Laurie Peschke and Ilene Smith. Val Gilberts 3 hits, along with 2 each by Kathy Johnson and Jody Werhane sparked the offense.

Val Gilbert, Karen Karpavicus and Sue Smith had 4 each, followed by Sue Smith, Jody Werhane and Kris Knox with 3 each. July 14 they faced un­ defeated CRU and despite great fielding by Ilene Smith, Kris Knox, Val Gilbert and Laurie Peschke, they j&ouldn't quite pull the upsetj? Karen Karpavicus homered again in the losing cause. Their final game and final victory nailed down second place with everyone getting into the act. Karen Karpavicus going 5-5, Jody Werhane 4-4 with a bases loaded triple. Carey Krause 4-5 with a triple, Ilene Smith 4-5, Kris Knox 3-5, and Sue Smith 3 doubles along with KathyV Johnson's double.

After a vigorous four-round session (with a couple of side events thrown in) Match Play tournament for 1979 has come to an end and the winners for the hard-fought trophies have emerged. Downing Joanie Buss in the final round, Nell Fidler is the winner in Class A. In Class B Carolyn Harger upset Mabel Smith to become the winner; in Class C it was Barb Leight over Betty Rode and in Class D it was Pat MacDonald over Kitty Evans. In Consolation tournament it is Carol Cooney in Class A, Laverne Harpling in Class B, Trish Sayler in Class C and Fran Herrmann in Class D. -- Next week, Aug. 7, will find the ladies of McHenry Country club teeing off for their final big tournament, ' Club cham­ pionship, which will run for three weeks. In the meantime, all the gals and the various committees are deep in the throes of final preparations for the annual McHenry Women's Invitational which will take place Aug. 16 and 17. One of the classiest tournaments for women amateur net players, MWI draws from all over the Midwest with the field limited to 120 players. The public is invited to observe the women as they tee-off and to follow the various players on the course. Meanwhile, back to Tuesday's play and some of the daily statistics. Shooting an 83,. Carol Cooney scored low net of 70 in Class A. She tied with Letty Busscher for low putts by rolling in only 27. In Class B Caroline Harger had low net of 72 white Bernice Dolce had low putts of 32 in the same class. In Class C Carol Bolger had low net of 77 while Maddie Holmes had low putts of 30. Mary Mutchinsky had low net of 74 in Class D while a tie for low putts of 32 was registered by Fran Herrmann and Marcie Wakitsch in that class. » Nell Fidler did it again on No. 14 as did Bernice Dolce and Letty Busscher - they birdied. To birdie the 14th is becoming quite routine for some of the gals - they must be developing putt ruts. Letty also birdied No. 18 as did Carolyn Harger. And, our blonde bomber, Carol, birdied No. 12. The only chip-in reported was that executed by Nancy Wilkins on No. 10. a very nice, controlled wedge shot over the sand trap put the ball into the cup to give our swinging soprano a par on one of the most difficult holes on the course. * ' From time to tittle some temporary physical handicaps afflicting players have been mentioned. The most recent accident occurred to Myrt Johnson when she dropped a large object on her foot. The game of golf gets in one's system, however, and Myrt was out there swinging and hobbling despite the pain. The most emotionally painful golf of the day had to have been played by Letty Busscher on' No. 17. According to one of her golfmates she took a rather circuitous route from the tee to the hole. She managed to hit some trees and the cart path, played in the 3rd fairway which runs parallel to 17, landed in the water hazard but shot from the bank and still emerged with a decent score on the hole. Some days it works and some days it doesn't. As mentioned above, Nell Fidler is the winner in Class A Match Play, but her drive on No. 12 could have fooled any opponent. Catching the ball on the heel of the club she slam­ med into the fence and blooped up the hill to land short of the pump. However, a five-wood from a difficult lie and a five- CAR PROBLEMS?
