The first Commanding General Scramble of 2011, played on the Marshall and Bradley courses at Fort Benning Golf Course, saw a familiar winner Thursday as Green Island, a private country club located in north Columbus, won the first flight by shooting a 19-under 53.

Jimmy Jarrell, W.J. Barrs, Bill Hamilton and Jim Lester represented Green Island. Jarrell also won the closest-to-the-pin contest at the par-3 seventh hole on the Marshall Course. The team won the monthly CG scramble numerous times last year.

“Everybody’s a pretty decent player on our team,” Hamilton said. “When somebody hit a bad shot, somebody else hit a good one.”

AG, represented by Danny Wilson, Tommy Sorrell, Mike Allen and Bill Kimbley, finished second in the first flight with a 15-under 57 and was the only other team to shoot in the 50s.

The Jungles Cats won the second flight by four shots over the Lee County Sheriff Office with a 12-under 60. The 192nd Infantry Brigade won the third flight with an 8-under 64 by one shot over State Farm Insurance.

Fort Benning Golf Course awarded gift certificates to the first- and second-place finishers in each flight.

A closest-to-the-pin contest was held on each of the par 3s. Kimbley won the fourth hole on the Marshall Course.

Mary Kumar won the fourth hole on the Bradley Course and Steven Rose of the Jungle Cats won the seventh hole on the Bradley Course.

The next CG Golf Scramble will be Feb. 24 at the Marshall and Patton courses.
