RANCHO CUCAMONGA, March 21 - Pete Wlodkowski of Carlsbad and Pat Mateer of Mission Viejo and Jim Vallone of San Dimas and Donald Wells of Glendora each fired rounds of 1-under-par 71 today at Red Hill Country Club, good for a one-shot lead after the first round of the 3rd Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) Foursomes Championship.
Defending champions Tim Hogarth of Northridge and John Pate of Santa Barbara matched par with a 72 today and are lurking one shot behind the leaders in the difficult alternate-shot format. Three other groups posted scores of 1-over-par 73 and are two shots back of the leaders.
The final round is tomorrow, with tee times beginning at 8 a.m.
Wlodkowski and Mateer began with birdies on their first two holes (Nos. 8 and 9 in the shotgun start) and finished with three birdies and back-to-back bogies on the par-four 13th and par-five 14th holes. Valone and Wells also had three birdies two bogies.
Hogarth and Pate got off to a rocky start, making a triple-bogey 6 on the par-3 seventh hole (their second) and then bogeying the par-5 seventh, but rallied with back-to-back birdies on Nos. 8 and 9. They posted three birdies and one bogey on the back nine.
