Paradise Valley Golf Course Fairfield, CA.

On Thursday May 21st, two 2 man teams represented Metropolitan Golf Club at the NCGA 4-Ball Qualifier.  Weather could not be better with clear skies and temps in the high 80's.  The course was in great shape and the greens were smooth and slick. Team #1 with President Sal Gomez and Jung Kim shot a nice round of Net 67. Team #2 with Van Hall and Cruz Oliveros shot an impressive Net 64.   

Unfortunately, neither team qualified for the five available spots or two alternate spots.  "We definitely left at least 3 shots on the front side, but we had a good time" said Van Hall who shot a spectacular 74 with 4 birdies.
