BEALLSVILLE, Md. (Oct. 9, 2013) -- Three-time Belle Haven Senior Four-Ball winners Ben Clements and Mike Occi from Hobbit's Glen Golf Club combined to record a five-under par 66 on the way to taking the 2013 WMGA Senior Four-Ball on Tuesday, October 8 at The Members Club at Four Streams. Clements birdied the second and fourteenth holes while Occi birdied 4, 11, 13, 16 and 18. The pair slipped to double bogey on the treacherous par 3 seventh hole, where the hole was cut in the relatively inaccessible back corner of the lakeside green.

In taking solo fourth place, Jim Kyttle (Montgomery Village) and Armen Brick (Montgomery Country Club) fired 34-34--68 as Kyttle birdied the fourth and fifteenth while Brick birdied #s 4 and 17. The team suffered a lone bogey on #13.
