Carson-Seiler break through at CCC Member-Guest

PLYMOUTH – Somewhere out there, William and Roberta Carson are smiling.

Tim Carson, son of the late Canasawacta Country Club owners, teamed up with longtime partner Scott Seiler to win the 53rd Annual CCC Men’s Member-Guest championship Saturday.

As darkness befell the championship flight players, Carson and Seiler outlasted steady rain and perhaps the deepest and most talented field of players in the long history of the tourney.

Carson, wearing one of his dad’s favorite shirts underneath his rain gear, captured the title on the golden anniversary of his father’s member-guest title in 1961. “I was very aware that this was the 50th anniversary of my dad’s win,” Carson said. “I feel his presence all of the time, but today it was no more than usual.”

Ever since the two longtime friends came together, they’ve found themselves contending for that elusive title. Four of the previous five years, Carson and Seiler finished in the runner-up position. In most of those cases, they held the lead after the first or second round of the 54-hole tournament.

After firing a second-round 64, the two were again in the familiar position of leading the field – this time by three strokes over 2009 champions Jim Gorski and Lee Skillin.
