WINTERNATIONAL
JUNIOR SERIES BEGINS TWELFTH CONSECUTIVE YEAR AT PIENHURST
RESORT IN NORTH CAROLINA
VILLAGE
OF PINEHURST, NORTH CAROLINA - November 13, 2005
The
Winternational Junior Series at Pinehurst (formerly Nike Winternationals)
began its twelfth consecutive year at the Pinehurst Resort
in Pinehurst, North Carolina. This series of nine golf tournaments
is open to high school boys and girls and has had a membership
of over 1500 in the past eleven years. The season opening
tournament was held this past weekend on the Tom Fazio designed
No.8 course. The 36-hole Championship was contested under
perfect weather conditions consisting of sunny skies and temperatures
in the 70s.
Matt Stasiak, a 16-year-old high school junior from Clarence,
NY, was victorious in the Junior/Senior Boys Division. He
shot a 73-76, 149 total to coast to an eight shot victory
in the inaugural event. Stasiak’s first round was marked
by his steady play of 13 pars, 2 birdies, and 3 bogies. The
junior from outside Buffalo was never threatened on Sunday
as he played his first nine holes in even par. In runner-up
position in the Junior/Senior Division, was Kevin MacDonald
of Pinebluff, North Carolina. MacDonald was an All-American
selection in this series last year. In third place, highlighted
by his first career hole-in-one in Sunday’s second round,
was Taylor Christian of Richmond, VA. Christian scored 78-81
for a total 159.
The Freshman/Sophomore Division was by three local players
all of whom played well in the Winternational Series last
year. Justin Evans of Spring Lake, NC, a freshman, scored
75-75, 150 for his five shot victory in the division. In the
36-hole event, Evans scored nine 3s and a 2 to outdistance
joint runners-up Mike McGowan of Southern Pines and Hunter
Howell of Raeford. Both Howell and McGowan scored 155 totals
for the 36 holes. In fourth place from Madison, West Virginia,
was Aaron Boggs with a 79-79, 158.
The Winternational Junior Series will hold its second event

Course. Please contact Peter
