North
The Captain: Ken "Precious" Deutsch
Assistant Captains: Mark Doering, David Troy
Education: Graduate of North Carolina State University
Family: Wife Karen, son’s Trey (9) & Harrison (7), and daughter Mallory (1)
Favorite Ryder Cup Moment: It was 2008 and I was playing singles against Tracy Coats in the final group. Having shanked just about every shot the first 5 holes (at least 10 over and 5 down) my partner Dave Troy kindly reminded me we weren’t playing stroke play and I could make a comeback (he later said I had to say something positive). Long story short I closed him out on the 17th hole! YOU CAN’T BEAT THE GALLERY ON THE FINAL HOLES!!!
I want to thank my Asst. Captains Mark Doering and Dave Troy in advance for all the help I expect they’ll be in delivering a decisive blow to our, “Do I hear banjo music?”, competition!
GO NORTH!!!
