100's Win

Yep. 100's win. That's our theme this time around. I'll explain more later, but first another word about Wrightsville. A whopping 12 people voted on baskets and the results were split evenly. Like Jrapp said, I'm making too much of this. So there you have it. Thanks for indulging my question. Hopefully I didn't anger the event organizers.

But let's get to the real meat of it. We're officially late in the season for the Green Mountain Points Series. Seven events are behind us and only 3 remain. In the Pro division Emmett Cosgrove has taken the lead over Chris Young. Emmett's got just a little more than 6 points between him and Big Bucks. Dave Frothingham is about 11 points off the lead and from there the gap opens up a little. Right now it looks like a 3 man race but watch out for Johnny Betts and Jeff Spring if they play the final 3 events and drop some low scores.

In AM1, Jon Moorer continues to lead the field. Maybe its just me, but it seems like he's been in first place for most of the year. Right now he's got 30 points on James Sweat and 45 on Christian Keidel. (You thought I was going to say Matty O. didn't you?) Keidel has been sneaking his way up the ranks for a while now. Matty O is in fourth, 14 points behind third place.  On a side note, nice work Twin Falls.

But here's the deal. 100's win. Last year saw tight races in AM1 and AM2. When it got down to the wire, it really seemed like the person with the most 100's won the division. Jim Conroy and Ian Thurston were 1^st and 2^nd in AM1, separated by less than 2 tenths of a point. They both had 2 scores of 100 and that put them ahead of third place by 12 points overall.

In AM2 Justin Kaulius won the division with two 100's. Anne Lewis was only 7 points behind but had only one 100. When you get down to the finish, those points that separate a winning score of 100 and a 2^nd place score of something in the mid 90's are very crucial.

You may have read Emmett's bragging about sneaking up to first place with no GMPS wins yet. I don't think it'll stick. He won't be able to win the division if he doesn't lock down a GMPS win. Chris Young has 2 and Dave Frothingham has 1. Look for one of those two win the series.

In AM1 Jon Moorer has 1 win, James Sweat has 1, Matt Cohen has 1, and Josh Wedel has 1. Keidel doesn't have 1. If he can't lock one down, all four of these guys are going to beat him out. For those 5 disc golfers, though, it's now or never. With 3 events remaining one of them needs to grind out another 100 to take charge in the division. 

 In AM2 Murray Junod's got 3 wins and Andy Powell has 2. That race could be interesting. Oh, and to those of you ranked 5^th to 24^th in Am2.  Were you at Run for the Border? Do you see who's beating you and how he's doing it? Get your acts together.

In the mean time, keep your eyes peeled for this weekend's division winners.  Each one could be making a move in the standings.
