A gap wedge stuck to one foot on the 18th hole secured Kevin Foley a spot in tomorrow's final 36 holes of play at the Ike Championship. Foley, the 2008 Ike champion, finished on the cut line with a 76 as his clutch wedge game helped him.
As clutch as Foley's shot was, 2008 MGA Jerry Courville Player of the Year Joe Saladino upstaged Foley by draining his approach shot on 18 for an eagle two. Saladino was in between clubs but decided on his 60 degree wedge and dunked the shot.
As the day's action comes to a close, a total of 47 players made the cut for the tournament's 36-hole second day, which is sure to contain even more excitement as the area's top amateur's compete for the coveted Ike trophy.
