    Some of the best golfers in town squared off this past weekend
    at Manakiki Golf Course for the �2012 Cleveland Metroparks Golf
    Tour Championship.�



    On Saturday, October 13 the �2012 Tour Championship,� which
    marks the conclusion of the �2012 Tournament Series� within
    Cleveland Metroparks, ended with true excitement. Despite the cool
    weather, David Sotka remained on a hot streak, winning the Barbour
    Cup event last week with partner Steve Blackburn, Jr., and cutting
    his partner by one stroke at the Tour Championship event. Sotka
    fired a solid 1- under par 71 to Blackburn, Jr.'s 72:

    playoff)



    1st:  David Sotka -

    2nd:  Steve Blackburn, Jr.- 72 
            
                   



    3rd:  Kory Oslie -

    4th:  Dave Stover -
    78                          



    5th:  Warren Cohen - 79  
           



    The Tour Championship is a special �invitation only� tournament.
    All participants must have had a top 10 finish at a designated 2012
    Tournament Series tournament to receive and invitation.



    The win was also enough to put Sotka well over the top in
    points, crowning him the first �Cleveland Metroparks Player of the
    Year� - an award for the number one cumulative point earner from
    all Cleveland Metroparks Golf tournaments.



    �Player of the Year� and Top 5:



    1st:  David Sotka - 126 pts.



    2nd:  Dave Stover - 88 pts.



    3rd:  A.J. Borisa - 86 pts.



    4th:  Nick Palladino - 80 pts.



    5th:  Steve Blackburn Jr. - 76 pts.



    �We consider the first year of the �Player of the Year �award to
    be a real success. As the year progressed, interest really began to
    grow and it is something we look forward to continuing for many
    seasons to come,� said Golf Pro John Fiander.
