Mikey Moyers-VSGA Junior Boy Golfer of the Year

Virginia Tech freshman golfer Mikey Moyers has been named the 2009 Virginia State Golf Association’s Junior Boy of the Year, as announced at the VSGA’s annual meeting at Washington Golf and Country Club in early December.

Mikey, 18-year old son of Mike and Carol Moyers of Stanardsville, is a long-time golfer at Greene Hills and a 2009 graduate of William Monroe High School.  As a member of the William Monroe team, coached by GH Assistant Pro Ron Morris, Moyers won the Virginia High School League AA individual title in the Fall of 2008 for the second year in a row.  His father is Greene Hill's PGA Professional Mike Moyers.

From the VSGA website:  Moyers collected an unprecedented third VSGA Junior Match Play title in 2009.  With the victory, he became only the second golfer to have his name on a VSGA junior title three times.  In winning the Junior Match Play Championship, Moyers claimed four matches in two days and played a combined 37 holes leading up to the championship final, all while trying to shake off a cold. 

Moyers also established the VSGA State Amateur Championship's 36-hole stroke play qualifying scoring record of 12-under 132 at Cedar Point Country Club in Suffolk.  Moyers' to-par total was an event-best mark for 3-hole qualifying and he advanced to the second round of match play at the event.  A longtime participant on the squad, Moyers helped the Virginias team to victory at the Virginias-Carolinas Junior Matches for its third-straight win in the series.

From the Radford University website: “Eklund led the Highlanders on the individual leaderboard with a tie for 19th showing at the 30th Annual ODU / Seascape Collegiate Tournament hosted by ODU. The red-shirt freshman battled the wet and windy conditions to card a 78 on day one, before firing a season-low one-over 71 Tuesday to finish at 149 and record his first career top-20 finish. The native of Charlottesville, Va., was one of four Highlanders to shoot a season-low on day two in leading Radford to a team total of 283, which tied for the lowest team round of the event.”

Eklund Wins Old Trail Invitational

Weston Eklund, a Greene Hills member and rising sophomore at Radford University, finished 1-under par to win the third annual Old Trail Team Invitational held May 15 – 17 at the course near Crozet. The conditions on Sunday were wet and windy, making the course play longer than usual, but Eklund handily shot a 68 on the par 71 course to take the title. His round of 3-under par was the only score in the red during the three-day tournament.   Birdwood’s Dave Hondula was second at 8 over par, followed by Old Trail’s Ty Grove at 10-over and Farmington’s Philip Mahone at 11-over.
