Threesome combines for team title

Jim Wright, Bonnie Wright and Mike Haws combined to win the team best ball title in UP&L’s Lincoln District golf tournament held Saturday at the Kemmerer Golf Course.

Todd Anderson won the closest to pin contest on (the) No. 8 green, Scott Donaldson of Evanston won the longest drive off No. 3 tee, and Bonnie Wright dropped the longest putt on No. 9 green in individual contests during the event.
