Mother Nature owed the players of the NEOHgolf.com Stroke Play Series.
On Sunday at The Elms of Massillon, she delivered.
After three consecutive rained-out events, the sunny and 80 degree summer weather for Event #11 was spectacular. The golf course conditions of The Elms of Massillon added to the enjoyment of the event, as the fairways and greens were in great shape heading into the Tigertown Open in just a couple of weeks.
Aaron Crewse of North Canton took advantage of the great weather and course conditions, especially on the front nine at The Elms. He birdied 1, 3, 4, 7 and 8 on the front side to turn in 5-under par 30, then made par on every hole on the back nine to shoot a 67 total.
Crewse 5-under par total was good for a two shot victory over Mitch Levengood of New Philadelphia (left), who made six birdies in shooting 69.
Ty Kovach of Medina finished third with a 2-under par 70, and Allen Freeman of Brecksville returned from the DL after three weeks to shoot even par 72 and finish fourth.
The final NEOHgolf.com event of 2017, Stroke Play #12 at Fox Den Golf Course in Stow, will be played on Sunday, Sept 24th.
