From staff reports

The father-son duo of Steve Gegorek and Michael Gegorek teamed with the brothers Medinger (Grey and Barry) to win the annual Corbin Hills Sunday Afternoon Crowd’s Christmas Charity Tournament.

Proceeds went to The Salisbury Post’s Christmas Happiness Fund.

The Gegorek-Medinger team shot a blistering 20-under par in the Texas Scramble format, setting a new tournament scoring record while edging defending champions Alan Barefoot, Steve Honeycutt, Rick Ridenhour and Randy Bingham by two shots.

Taking third at 17-under was the team of Todd Deaton and Keith, Michael and David Dorsett.

“We had an excellent field, with 50 players in the competition, and excellent golf was on display, especially from the champions,” tournament committee member Stan Honeycutt said. “When we set the field we knew that the Gegorek-Medinger team would be in the mix for the championship. Both Steve and Michael are very tough competitors, Grey is a terrific ball striker, and no one rolls it like Barry.”

Tournament participants helped reak another tournament record, as they raised $1,000 for the Post’s Christmas Happiness Fund.

Additional prize winners were John Struzick, Rick Ridenhour, Billy Ray Corriher, Keith Dorsett and David Dorsett.
