Against the Florida Rams, the sophomores fell short in winning the title, taking second place.
The eighth grade club was at the .500 mark in pool play (1-1) and did even better in the postseason. Ramsey and company saw the eighth-graders go 5-0 overall in the playoffs, capped by its upset victory over the state-ranked Florida Phenoms in Division II.
The Blazers' home floor is at the Pompey Park Recreation Center, 1101 NW 2nd St. in Delray Beach.
locals capture putting champs
From basic amateurs to seasoned professionals, the John Prince Golf Learning Center in Lake Worth was the place to be recently for the annual Palm Beach County Putting Championship.
Ryan Alvino, PGA head golf professional at the center, welcomed more than 100 participants ages 5 to 75.
Donna White, a three-time winner on the Ladies Professional Golf Association tour, was the lead instructor for the free putting clinic, which was also part of the activities.
Boynton Beach's Edward Smith, 28, hits the fairways for regular play once a week and watches the Golf Channel to pick up tips.
He found the putting clinic helpful since that's the one part of his game that needs improvement.
"This [clinic] is very beneficial," Smith said. "This is the only thing that is holding me back. I am in the low 80s, so if I can shave off a few strokes by being a better putter, that would be great."
Lake Worth's Vince Elliott, 53, was testing his skills in the county's putting challenge for the second time.
"I just want to come out here and have some fun," said Elliott, who comes to the links once a week for a casual round of golf. "I will also come out and work on my putting once a week."
Palm Beach Gardens' Eric Strand, 46, brought his 8-year-old son Zachary to the event. He liked the friendly competition and said his son was going to start in a kids' program at the center.
There were six divisions and trophies and prizes awarded in each. All proceeds benefited the Junior Golf Foundation of America.
