Steve Blackburn Jr., Ryan Stefanski and Rob Schustrich all tied for first place at the Seneca Stroke Play last Saturday, and that propelled them to now stand 1-2-3 in the 2018 Cleveland Metroparks Player of the Year standings.
Blackburn’s lead is now 36 points ahead of Stefanski, who jumped up from a tie for sixth into second place with his T1 at Seneca.
Schustrich made a huge leap with his Seneca play as well, moving up from 12th place to third.
Schustrich’s recent run has now placed him atop the Senior Division with 106 points. He and Allen Freeman have really now made it a two-player race in the age 50+ division.
More points are up for grabs this weekend at the Shawnee Hills Stroke Play on Saturday.
TOURNAMENT NOTE: the prize payout for the Bill Barbour Cup on September 9th will be in general Cleveland Metroparks gift cards that can be used not only for merchandise, but for anything available for purchase from the Cleveland Metroparks — including golf, range balls, other tournaments, the Zoo, etc…
