Interclub Results
The Muni Interclub Team traveled to Coosaw Creek on March 6th.  The course was challenging due to the overly firm greens and tough pin placements.  The Muni team finished in 8th place as no team could post an overall “+’ team score.  The Muni team was led by Eddy Stubbs who finished second overall.  Also leading the Team this month were B. and J. DeStefano.  The next match is on April 3rd at Crowfield Golf Club.  The signup sheet is posted at the Muni Clubhouse.
