NINE BOYS, TWO GIRLS FILL FINAL SPOTS
FOR AJGA
GREATER GREENSBORO CHRYSLER JUNIOR
GREENSBORO, N.C.-- Maggie Simons shot a 78 to
grab medalist honors in the Girls Division of the Pepsi
Qualifier Series presented by ClubCorp for the AJGA
Greater Greensboro Chrysler Junior. In the Boys Division,
Phelps Brooks shot a 2-over-par 72 to take medalist
honors on the par-70 layout at The Cardinal Golf &
Country Club.
The Pepsi Qualifier Series presented by ClubCorp, conducted
by the American Junior Golf Association, featured 12
girls and 85 boys attempting to qualify for the final
11 spots for the AJGA Greater Greensboro Chrysler Junior
Simons, a 16-year-old from Raleigh, N.C., shot 41-37
for an 8-over-par 78. Simons recovered on the back nine
after struggling on the way out.
"The front side was ugly," said Simons. "I
played the back side pretty well. I made a lot of putts
to save par, and I didn't miss a fairway on the back,"
said Simons. "I really need to work on my short
irons to do well in the tournament."
Simons will play in her second AJGA tournament, after
competing in the AJGA PING Myrtle Beach Junior Classic
last year. Also qualifying in the Girls Division was
Dinah Plyler of Chapin, S.C., with a 38-42--80.
The 15-year-old Brooks, from Cheraw, S.C., had 16 pars
and two bogeys en route to a 36-36--72.
"I played pretty consistent throughout the whole
day," Brooks said. "My short game and putting
were very good today. Hopefully, I can continue to do
that in the tournament."
Brooks will play in his first AJGA tournament this week.
He knows what he needs to do to play well this week.
"I made a few mental errors today. I need to prepare
myself mentally and get in the right frame of mind for
the next few days," Brooks added.
Also qualifying in the Boys Division was Ryan Holler
(35-38--73) of Morehead City, N.C., Justin Cowart (36-37--73)
of Ellabell, Ga., Ty Lefler (38-36--74) of Apex, N.C.,
Ben Goforth (37-37--74) of Shelby, N.C., Matt Collings
(40-34--74) of Newton, N.C., McClean Boyd (40-34--74)

N.C., and Nick Chauvenet (39-36--75) of Winston-Salem,
N.C. Chauvenet and Teden qualified in a sudden-death
