Thiel to resume
golf programs
GREENVILLE — Thiel College, which dropped both of its men’s and women’s intercollegiate golf programs a year ago, will reinstate both sports this coming school year, announced Roseanne Gill-Jacobson, a native of Campbell.
Gill-Jacobson, president for student life who also is serving as interim athletic director at Thiel, said that a big reason for reinstating both golf programs was because the teams will be able to use the Greenville Country Club course.
Thiel alumni Howard and Robert Weyers purchased the club recently to eliminate the uncertainty regarding Thiel’s use of the course, because they are committed to making it available to both teams.

Play suspended
at Colonial
FORT WORTH, Texas — Tim Clark had the perfect remedy to overcome a stiff neck and an extended day of golf: anti-inflammatory medicine and a steady dose of fairways and greens.
Clark had to play the back nine of his opening round Friday, then got only a brief break before a bogey-free 6-under 64 in a second round in which he didn’t miss a fairway or a green.
“It certainly makes it easier to get around,” said Clark, who at 11 under had a one-stroke lead over Arron Oberholser (66) in the rain-soaked Colonial.
