Grattan, NW golfers in the mix at Mid-Am
HELENA — Whitefish’s Brad Grattan is one stroke back after the first round at the Montana State Mid-Amateur golf tournament on Thursday at Green Meadows Country Club.
Grattan shot a 2-under-par 69 in the first round, to move into a tie for second, just behind Helena’s Parker Heller, who is at 3-under.
The course played tough on the opening day, with only six golfers at or below par, all from either Helena or the Northwest.
Libby’s Joe Cielak is in a tie for fourth place at 1-under 70 and Whitefish’s Mark Mance is in sixth at even par 71. Eureka’s Paull Veroulis is also in the mix in seventh at 1-over-par 72.
