NOPGA Tournament Director and former Kent State player David Griffith paired with 2009 NOGA Player of the Year and Avon Oaks perennial club champ Saumil Jhaveri to best the field at the 2012 Ashland Am-Am Better Ball Tournament on Sunday at the Country Club of Ashland.

Posting a truly solid score of 7-under par 65, the pair ham-and-egged their way to victory by a single shot over three teams in the 51st playing of the annual event.

Results for the top teams posted below.

Three skins were won on the day, including a hole-out eagle 2 on the par-4 fourth hole by Team Fisher, Ben and Brett, courtesy of a courageous check-and-backspin shot to a scary back-left hole location on that sloping green.
