Coe Invitational: Strickland, Vickers lead
CASTLE ROCK, Colo. (June 2, 2011) -- The second round results for the 2011 Charlie Coe Invitational are in the books after a tough day of competition at Castle Pines Golf Club.
A strong and gusty wind made the golf course challenging today with birdies and eagles tougher to come by.
The great playing ability of the field still shone through as there were still some great scores posted in the both the Senior - Am and Mid - Am divisions.
In the Mid-Am division, three time champions Jim Strickland and Warren Vickers of Scottsdale, Arizona, jumped into the lead with a seven under 65 on Thursday to post a two-day total of 131, thirteen under par. In second place at 134 are Jeff Knox and Jack Larkin, of Augusta and Atlanta, Georgia, and the team of Charles Williams and Chris Forbes of Houston and Katy,Texas. Many teams are still in the hunt, including John Elway and Tom Hart of Denver, Colorado, who stand at 137.
In the Senior-Am division, five time champions Mike Rice and Jerry Hudgins of Houston and Kingwood, Texas, are back on top at nine under par, 135.
Right behind them are five teams tied at 137. The third and final round of the 2011 Charlie Coe Invitational is all setfor Friday, June 3rd, and there will surely be some low scores turned in,especially with calmer winds in the forecast.
