October 5, 2001 OU 14 – TX 3

For the second straight year, the weather was cold and wet with temperatures in the low fifties. When the rain finally subsided around 1:00, 90 golfers teed off in time to allow most to finish before dark. I say most of us because the Decker brothers and their partners O’Roche and Firth decided it more appropriate to play tackle football in the 17th fairway as opposed to finishing their putrid rounds. Covered in mud and undeniably drunk, they stumbled back to the clubhouse forty-five minutes after dark.

Nevertheless, the 11th Annual Ugly was a tremendous success. The Sooners once again triumphed over Chrissy Simms and the hated horns and we raised more than $3,000 for the Pintail Youth Ranch and the Women’s and Children’s Fund of the NYC Uniformed Firefighter’s Association.
Marshall Brown and Robert Seacat took honors in the Ugly division and Vince Bogard and Byron Frazar won the Bad flight.
On a sad, yet inspiring note, the Good flight was won by Patrick Hogan. His partner, tournament Co-Chair Alan Bain was unable to play as his father-in-law Jim passed away just hours before the scheduled start. Playing by himself, Hogan shot a remarkable four under par 68 to take first place against 13 other teams playing two-man best-ball. “Hogie” swears to this day he could feel Jim on his bag. It was an awesome – and fitting – performance.
