Kinkade, Zuvich continue consistency
Consistent scoring from Mark
Kinkade and Todd Zuvich con-
tinued for the Cottage Grove
High golf team last week de-
spite unpredictable greens at one
course and inclement weather at
another.
The Lions fi nished third
Thursday in a four-way meet at
Emerald Valley Golf Course in
Creswell, as Zuvich led the way
with a sizzling round of 78 (sec-
ond only to a 76 turned in by
Springfi eld’s Jon Dayton).
“That was a good score for
him, given the fact that several
greens weren’t up to par,” said
Cottage Grove head coach Clive
MacDonald of Zuvich. “They
were aerating many of the
greens.”
The Millers won the match,
edging North Eugene 335-338,
while Cottage Grove would up
third at 341 and Elmira fourth
at 402.
MacDonald said his team
likely would have won the com-
petition had it not been short-
handed. While the other teams
picked their four best scores
from fi ve individual rounds, the
Lions had to take what they got
from everyone.
Kinkade shot an 80, Brent
Hoover fi red an 88 and David
Butler fi nished with a 95.
One day later, the Lions were
competing on their home course
(Hidden Valley) for the last
time this season, against visit-
ing South Albany. However, a
steady rain prevented the scores
from dipping down into the
70s.
Kinkade turned in the best
round of the day with an 82,
while Zuvich alled an 87,
Hoover a 92, Alan Gates a 94
and Butler a 96. The Lions
edged the Rebels 451-458
“Putting was just impossible,”
said MacDonald. “We were put-
ting through puddles, there was
just absolutely no way to judge
the greens. I’m not disappointed
with those scores at all.”
MacDonald said all things
considered, Kinkade, a sopho-
more, and Zuvich, a junior, have
done an admirable job so far this
season.

Gran Fondo
The 2016 Oregon Gran
Fondo is coming to Cot-
tage Grove on Sunday, June
5. Over 400 cyclists are ex-
pected to start in downtown
Cottage Grove at 8 a.m. for
both the Gran (117-mile)
and Medio (71-mile) routes.
The fi rst riders for the
Gran would be expected
about noon, while the faster
Medio riders might begin
From the
City's Friday
Update
returning about 11 a.m. By
defi nition, a Gran Fondo is
not a race, but rather a mass
start event designed to draw
the community together
and give everyone a chance
to enjoy the fun of riding a
bike on the same course as
the pros.
Those not interested in
facing the challenge of the
ride are encouraged to come
downtown and experience
the mass start or watch the
riders come back in before
noon.
New permit
tracking
program
The City was one of the
original 14 cities/coun-
ties that implemented the
D-14 Accela permit track-
ing for building permits in
2011. The program since
that time has grown and a
“standard model” has been
developed which includes
more features and planning
application tracking. Cot-
tage Grove will switch over
to the standard model this
weekend and go live with
the new program on Mon-
day, May 2. Staff is report-
edly excited about this op-
portunity and the ability to
directly link building, plan-
ning and engineering ap-
plications in one program.
The City said the program is
also more robust in the num-
ber and type of reports that
can be produced. The pro-
gram is paid for by the State
through the state surcharge
on all building permits.

LORANE COUNTRY NEWS
BY LIL THOMPSON
For the Sentinel

is still convinced his squad is
capable of fi nishing as high as
fourth at district.
“I honestly do,” he said. “At

should help us. If we could get
our scores down in the mid
80s…”
