Clyde Martz Wins The Dormont Open

After several years of coming close, Clyde Martz, Pennsylvania champion, was finally able to win the Dormont Open Horseshoe Tournament. While many of the pitchers were having an off day, Clyde had an exceptional tournament. He almost had a perfect game against Clair Bruce, throwing 31 out of 32 and was in the near 90’s against Zadroga and Engle. However, you guessed it! The 67 year old gentleman from Baltimore, Dale Carson, stepped up and thumped 37 year old Clyde good and proper in the seventh round when it looked like no one could beat him. Dale looked every bit the champion his truly is during that game.
