Mixed Pennant team ends season on a high note
Published on 10th March 2024 in UncategorisedMonash’s Mixed Pennant team (team photo at the bottom of the article) took to the course on Sunday for its final game in what has proven to be a very tough season. Opponents Asquith GC were still in the hunt for a place in the quarter finals and, from the very start, were fired up to repeat their victory over us from a few weeks ago. However, Monash had other ideas!
Unfortunately, Stella and Young Kwon were defeated in the reserve match by a close margin of 2&1, whilst Jody and Yoram Drutman came up against a very tough pairing, losing out on the 14th green.
Meanwhile, in match 5, Eileen Rodwell and David Biviano eased to a very comfortable 4&3 victory, whilst Young Kim and Nick Glover saw their opponents off in style with a resounding 6&5 win.
The final two games saw Anne May and Glenn Hooker ease home safely by 5&4, whilst Team Manager, Jacqui Dawber, partnering son Gareth for the first time, completed the Monash victory with a win on the 14th.
All in all, it was a bitter sweet ending for this year’s competition but we look forward to next season when we hope to fly the Monash flag high again.
