Tryzub’s 39th Annual Golf Outing: Another Day of Golf Fun in the Sun

Seventy-eight golfers from no less than five States competed in the Ukrainian American Sport Center Tryzub’s annual golf outing. Notably, six of the golfers were women; five of them competing in the Tryzub tournament for the first time. Limekiln Golf Club again presented the players with tremendous conditions, enhanced by a high blue sky, thin wisps of clouds and brilliant sunshine with warm, delicate breezes.

Team Best Ball Champions: Nick Salata; David Frentz (also low gross individual champion); Steve Nahorniak (also closest to the pin winner); and Mike Gudzy flanked by Golf Committee Chair Joe Homick and Committee member, Alex Woloszczuk.

After golf, everyone gathered at nearby “Tryzubivka”  (Ukrainian American Sport Center) in Horsham, Pa. for an awards banquet. Tryzub president, Danylo Nysch, welcomed everyone, thanked them for participating, and reminded them about any number of exciting sporting, cultural and social events at Tryzub. He then turned the program over to Tryzub’s Golf Director, Joe Homick.
