2026 Suburban Mid-Range Prone League Match 1 Results

Due to a conflict with a match at Oscoda, we had a small turn-out today for Match 1 of the Suburban Mid-Range Prone league. The weather was somewhat cool, and a little damp from a rainstorm about an hour before we started. However, for the first two matches it was remarkably calm. The third match added a little challenge with winds quickly switching. It did provide our one 200 of the day for Steve Pranga who nailed a 200-16X in F-Open. However, he still got beat by his wife Keri, who set the pace in F-Open with a 595-24.
