his opening 69 for a three-under par 137 total and a one shot victory over
Gordie Smith of Oakfield. Smith fired a brilliant 66 on Sunday.
The closing event on the Maritime Pro-Am Tour, sponsored by Ganong and presented

September
Chris Irwin of Fox Meadow, with a 67 in the final round, was tied in third place
at 141 with amateurs Gary Carter of Amherst and Ken Comeau of the host club.
Carter, a co-leader after the first round, closed with a 75, while Comeau shot
73. Carter took low amateur honors following a two hole playoff. Greg Jones,
amateur at Country Meadows, was tied at 142 with professionals Troy Howe of
Magnetic Hill and Marc Robichaud of Lakeside.
