Vegas "Qualifier" for VGA-Atlanta Saturday 8/7

I am planning an outing next Sat 8/7 for the players going to Vegas. This is chance for us to get in a practice round and to meet one another.

I want to take this opportunity to make up the team representing Flight B in Vegas.

4 - PERSON TEAM
The 4-Person Team event is open to all. Individuals from any VGA Chapter can play together to square off with any other 4-Person Team. All four players combined two-day scores will be calculated to determine who will be the best 4-Person Team.

Here are some options:
1. top 4 scores represent team 1, next 4 scores represent team 2 and the rest makes team 3
2. top 8 scores make 2 teams and we can balanced the two teams
3. let Bobby pull the name from the air :-)

Here are the players (with handicap).
