More than $50,000 raised at second annual golf tournament By EMILY HANSON Though he played foot- ball as . a record-setting quarterback for the Miami Hurricanes from 1951-1953 and coached football at the high school and college level from 1956-1992, Don James showed off his golf- ing skills at the Alderbrook Golf Course this week. James served as the ce- lebrity golfer of the second annual Love In the Name of Christ (Love INC) Golf Tournament on Monday. Prior to the tournament, James answered questions regarding his support of Love INC, his thoughts on Mason County, golfing with his wife Carrol and foot- ball. "Since I retired in '93, we've done a lot of tourna- ments," James said. "I get invited to just about every one. Coming in last year, I didn't know everything (Love INC was) doing. Now, if I dropped all of my chari- ties, I'd keep this one, if they kept inviting me back." Love INC of Mason County is a 501(c)(3) non- profit that mobilizes local churches to assist those in need. A phone center takes the calls of potential cli- ents whose needs are then verified. After verfication, Love INC assists its clients to the best of its ability to meet those needs. James said he and his wife were touched by Ma- son County last year and were glad to be back this year. "We're hoping this will be the Don James annual tournament," Golf Steering Committee Chairman Bill Kendrick said. James spoke about the Husky Stadium renova- tions and stated he was happy to see the work be- gin. He spoke about the state of the stadium when he was head coach: "If you sat in our west end zone, I don't know how you could see the games," James said. ',The tunnel was caving in and Carrol took the elevator to the press box every game; I wasn't sure she'd make it." Carrol James said the elevator would rock back and forth during the verti- cal journey. Don James spoke about the new coaches at UW and about the state of the football program at Wash- ington State University as well. "I like the new coaches (at UW) and we'll see a lot of home games," James said. "WSU has a pretty good coach who can move the ball and he's got some good quarterbacks. If he can get some protection, they'll do fine." Just before the tourna- ment began, Carrol James said she loves golfing with her husband. "He'll pick up right away Journal photo by Emily Hanson Former University of Washington head football coach Don James eyes the fairway of hole No. 1 at the Alderbrook Golf Course before teeing off on Monday during the second annual Love INC Golf Tournament. on what I'm doing wrong," she said. "My game im- proves from playing with him." She and her husband were so impressed by Love INC last year that they've spread the word about the organization. "Every time we go some place, we tell everybody about this place and this tournament," she said. Don James and his wife golfed with Drew MacE- wen and Rob Snyder and tied for second place in the non-hadicap division with a combined score of 61. The other second place team consisted of Bert Fisher, Joe Roberts0n, Gary Bur- leson and Mark Eichhorn. The winning non-hadicap division team was Mike Silvey, Frank Bartenetti, James Tibbetts and Mark Olson with a score of 56. In the handicap division, Jack Deiglmeier, Jay Deigl- meier, Keri Deiglmeier and Jerry Clausen tied for first place with the E1 Sarape Team (names not available) and the team that consisted of Jeff McHargue, Rebecca Jonas, Pete Skogstad and Jill Skogstad. Each of the three teams finished with a score of 50. The KP winner on hole No. 6 was Riley Lewis for the men with a distance of 10 feet, 7 inches whiIe Pam Ward won for the women with a distance of 3 feet, 5 inches. The KP winner for hole No. 12 for the men was from the E1 Sarape team with a distance of 9 feet, 6 inches and for the women was Cathy Moxley with a distance of 13 feet, 9 inches. Clausen won the KP on hole No. 6 for the men with a distance of 7 feet: 10 inches while Asue Barnes won for the women with a distance of 19 feet, 6 inches. The long drive winner for hole No. 11 was Rick Endicott for the men while Keri Deig!meier Segale won for the women. The closest to the line on hole No. 15 winner was Silvey for the men and Kim Pokela for the women. Finally, the long putt winner for the men was Tom Swift with a putt of 18 feet, 3 inches and Moxley with a putt of 6 feet for the women. "The tournament went well, the dinner was full and everybody seemed to have a good time," Kend- rick said. "Everything went very smoothly for us." Final numbers for how much was raised were not available by Tuesday. Golf Steering Committee mem- ber Virginia McCarty esti- mated the gross total, be- fore subtracting expenses, at $55,000. "What I thought was great was that we were still able to raise money from people out of the area who really believe in what we do and want to see Mason County helped," McCarty said. Most of the money do- nated to Love INC came from the Seattle area, a fact that McCarty attributed to Kendrick's connections in Seattle. "It really warmed my heart to see the Seattle peo- ple help out," she said. "The total is about where it was last year." From the funds raised at last year's tournament, Love INC was able to help 430 adults and 335 children in the Mason County'com- munity, Kendrick said. "It was a great day, the weather cooperated and we had a full course of golfers," McCarty said.
