Page 10A The Castlegar Sun Wednesday, June 28, 1995 Perehudoff still plays like a Ty JEFF GABERT Sun Sports The Castlegar Golf and Country Club looked like a scene from the Land Before Time last week as 160 senior golfers from all over Western Canada and Northwestern U.S. took part in the Sth Annual Dinosaur Open. The three-day tournament is actually more of an event than a golf tournament. Participants are treated to a wide variety of activities and enter as night at the Sandman Inn. That was followed by two days of medal play at the Castlegar course and plenty of fun and tomfoolery. The winner of this year's Dinosaur Open was a familiar one. Bill Perehudoff of Castle- gar shot a gross score of 145 and took home the prize for the fourth straight year. Perehudoff is always a force on the course no matter what age group he enters in and tournament orga- nizer Dick Wayling was hoping part of the event which started with the Suds and Sausage Gong Show on Wednesday would step up and give him a run this year. But to Wayling'’s chagrin that didn't happen.

Her Story “He's always been one of our outstanding golfers,” said Wayling of Perehudoff who took top spot in the Kokanee Open on the May long week- end. “He did very well in the Canadian Seniors Tournament in Winnipeg last year and he'll be going back. He's always a factor in any tournament he goes into. “He's got that kind of swing that will last him until he’s 100 years old.” The other major award win- ner came from Priest Lake, Idaho. Jack Curran won the overall low net prize by posting a 136 two-round net score. The tournament is set up to give all levels of golfers an equal opportunity to compete and that meant most of the prizes were awarded for low net scores. Only one prize for low gross was handed out per flight Wayling believes that is one of the main reasons the tourna- ment is so successful. It was filled to capacity this year with 160 participant plus a waiting list and he says he already has 40 signed up and paid for next Nothing year’s event The draw is always the enter- tainment, the course and the golf but Wayling could not say enough about the help he received from his other commit- tee members and assorted vol- unteers “I had some great help on the committee from Jim Bilesky, Dave Jones and Ron Belton,” said Bilesky, “Plus there were guys like Alec McKinnon, Denny McArthur and Stosh Uchida who helped out a bunch.” Other ‘notable contributors were Zeke Clements, Harold Achne, Hugo Smetcher, Al Jacues and Danny Bouvette who contributed as starters as well as the announcer Barry Jackson. Dave Hiebert came back again as the official photographer. As for next season, Wayling does not forsee any major changes at all. You just don't tinker with a good thing “This year was the biggest success so far,” said Wayling “We had very few problems at all and we're looking forward to next year.” rannosaurus Bill Perehudoff takes home the keeper trophy for the fourth straight year. SUN SPORTS PHOTO / Jeff Gabert but great fastball action SUN STAFF With only one week left in the season, all teams in the West Kootenay Fastball League are beginning to jockey for position and build momentum. The increased urgency down the stretch hag seen pitching and defence take a backseat to some amazing offensive performances in action last week. One of the best games of the week had the West Kootenay Marlins up against the Slocan Valley Royals Tuesday night at Haley Park. The Royals have been challenging for top spot in the league all season while the Marlins were unveiling their new pitcher, Greg Bergeron, who came over from the Castle- gar Merchants. The game was touted as a defensive battle with John Pam- pone taking the mound for the Royals but things quickly got out of control as both teams com- bined for 25 runs over the seven innings. The Royals managed to come out on top 15-10 in a game Marlins rt Darryl Dickson GOO4 <7>ECZd& First & last name New Year's Day | Jane & John Doe (25) 2 Buy a date & be part of Castlegar's story.

The tournament, hosted by the Castlegar Cobras Men's Fastball Club, gets underway Friday at 6 p.m. and continues throughout Saturday and Sunday with the championship game slated for 4:30 p.m. on Sunday. With the big payout at the end of the weekend the toumament has attracted some powerful lineups. The Invermere A’s and Miz- zoula, Mont., both two-time tourney winners, will be head- lining a great collection of fast- ball clubs. Rounding out the field are the red-hot West Kootenay Marlins, the Valley Royals, another former “P.K." champion, the Castlegar Merchants, Big O Tire from the Slocan Valley league, Cranbrook and the host Cobras. For everyone's enjoyment a concession and bavarian garden will be open on Saturday and Sunday This year’s field of eight teams can be attributed directly to the prize money and calibre of com- petition said organizer Jim Nazaroff. “With $1,800 for first, a few teams decided to stay away because all the teams involved will be stacked with good players.” That may be bad news for the clubs that stayed away but for fans coming out to Kinnaird Park this weekend it will mean nothing but great fastball action BCAA®@® TOURS Branson September 26 - October 16, 1995 21 days/20 nights France & September 20 - October 7, 1995 18 days/16 fight Nashville & $2,395.» Per person, two sharing Come along’on this foot-stompin’ tour as we head for some of the greatest country music spots in North America!

The River Otters went into the Grand Forks “B” meet expecting some improvement over their performance at the Nelson meet And that’s exactly what they got Baseball Coaching Brought to you by: Norm Clark “HERE TO HELP” 365-2166 1761 Columbia Ave. Hitting Drills #2 Screen Drill * small groups of 3 or 4 play- ers (one is a pitcher, one hitter and a shagger) + pitcher kneels in front of and to.the side of a screen allowing the batter to hit the balls into the screen + pitcher tosses the ball slowly in front of the hitter from the side and the hitter hits the ball into the screen + each player takes a number of swings as hitter and then rotates to the other positions * sponge, plastic or tennis balls should be used for this drill Fear Drill + the last four of five pitches of the screen drill should be thrown at the hitter + allows the hitter the opportu- nity to move away from the pitch * the technique of moving away from a ball thrown at the head is to drop the head down and inward Pepper Drill * team is divided into small groups * the batter ‘chokes’ up on the handle and hits short casy balls tq Williams leaves destruction in Trail SUN STAFF the fielders in front of him * once the ball is fielded it is thrown back towards the hitter who again must hit it out of the air towards the fielders * develops bat control and allows fielding opportunities * players rotate after several pitches from Kerry Anderson, Matthew Tupholme and Roman Wyllie: Anderson came through with a gold medal performance in Div 6 girls with first place finishes in 50m fly, 100m backstroke, 50m free, 100m free and 100m breast- stroke, Tupholme brought home silver with impressive perfor- mances in 100m freestyle, 50m breaststroke, 50m freestyle and 50m _ fly. Wyllie gained a silver with a first place finish in 50m breaststroke and three third place finishes. Tupholme's 100m freestroke race and Wyllie's 50m breast- stroke race were two of the most exciting races of the day while Anderson created some excite- ment herself by setting three new meet records in the 50m freestyle, 100m backstroke and 100m freestyle. Other impressive performances were turned in by Aaron Sarriko and Sam Wyllie. Only a few Otters made the trip to Penticton for the “A/B” meet held there annually. The meet is a big attraction for swim clubs all over the province and gives swimmers in other region an opportunity to compete against one another. Emily Watson was the best Otter on the day. She was one of the stronger competitors a week earlier in Nelson with a second plac®’ finish in the 50m freestyle and 50m fly and she followed that up with a first place finish in the 50m freestyle and fourth place in 100m freestyle in Penticton. Scooter Corkle also competed fidmirably in Penticton with three second place finishes in the 100m freestyle, 100m breaststroke and 50m freestyle As for the Castlegar Aqua- nauts, they won the Grand Forks meet for the third year in a row behind 13 medal performances. They finished the meet with 591 total points. Gold medals were won by Jordi Jmieff, Yasha Aresh- enkoff, Brigitte Gustafson, Clayton Bonin, Amelia John and Brian Preston. Silver was garnered by Jytte Apel, Stewart Gallo, Darcy Miller and Lorne Hartson while bronze medal performances were turned in by Stephen Manarin, Teri Todd and Rosanna Sheppard. In Penticton, head coach Neil Jones saw his star performer shine with a gold medal perfor- mance in Div. 7 boys. Adam Rodgers had been the best Aqua- naut swimmer this season and it came as no surprise to Jones that he excelled in Penticton. Howev- stroke at a time er, what did si se and excite a lot of spectators was Rodgers near record breaking performance in the 100m breaststroke. He nar- rowly missed the mark by two one hundredths of a second. The Div. 6 girls relay team of Rachel Friedrich, Lindy Miller, Sandra Ellis and Shelby Miller mad up for Rodger's shortfall in the 200m freestyle by posting a new meet record of 2:10.67, “It was a long weekend but they did well,” said Jones, “A lot of them went faster than at Nel- son and they got to check out swimmers from other regions.” The next meet for both clubs is this weekend in Trail. The Trail Stingray meet goes both Saturday and Sunday and is always one of the biggest meets of the year.

Three days of hard-fought slo- pitch action came down to one game Sunday afternoon as two Castlegar teams, Williams Mov- ing and Storage and The Com- mitments, battled for top spot at Haley Park. Williams Moving eventually came out on top completing a perfect sweep through the tour- nament brackets with five Straight wins and the title. Williams always seems to field a good team no matter what tour- nament they are in. This is prob- ably due to the fact that most of the members are related. This year’s squad included: Bob and Jeanette Pakula, Linus and Terri Pakula, Bruce Pakula, Mike Pakula, Shelly and Lyle Stoushnow, Ron and Angie Steeds, Rick and Michelle Fran- co, Randy and Simone Martin, John and Julie Gilmore, Judy Moller and Rick Rogerson. Williams also came home with three individual awards as Linus Pakula picked up the MVP Male prize, Shelly Stoush- now won the MVP Female and Jeanette Pakula was awarded art Honorary Tournament MVP.
