Growing up in a family of athletes and coaches, I’ve been around (and loved) sports my entire life. But, before Title IX became law in 1972, there were very few opportunities for me and many other girls around the country to play organized sports. I and my friends didn’t really question that. It was what it was, and it was all we’d ever known. I did kind of wonder, when my mom talked about playing on state championship basketball teams in high school, why I didn’t have that opportunity. But none of the girls I knew ahead of me in school had, so, again, it was what it was.

The 2022 Charity Classic Tournament for ASU-Mountain Home and the ASUMH Technical Center/Workforce Development was held at Big Creek Golf & Country Club this weekend. Championship Flight: 1.

The Big Creek Golf & Country Club Cup team defeated the West Plains Country Club this weekend by a score of 16 1/2 to 15 1/2 to successfully win the MoArk Cup for the third straight year. The Saturday Better-Ball and Alternate-Shot matches were played at West Plains with the home team winning the morning matches 5 1/2 to 2 1/2. The afternoon matches were tied at 4-4. The score after day one was West Plains 9 1/2 to Big Creek’s 6 1/2

It was a nice little lake cove with clear water, and a little stream flowing in at the end. That little tributary would be very low most years, by this time in the summer. And most years, there wouldn’t be any green trees and shrubs in the water. But it looked to be a good place to fish a topwater lure, late in the evening, and I meant to try it. There was a nice little rock cliff not far away, some timber sticking up out of the water nearby, and no one there but me.
