Greenhead Turf Wins 25th Sportsmen’s Triathlon

The Montgomery Sportsmen Club, along with Le Sueur County Pheasants Forever, sponsored its 25th annual Sportsmen’s Triathlon recently in Montgomery. The three events were golf, bowling and trop shooting.

Taking first place in the overall competition was the Greenhead Turf Management team of New Prague. Team members were Doug Schoenecker of New Prague, Ed Schoenecker of Bloomington, Aaron Schoenecker of Eden Prairie and Marty Schoenecker of Brainerd.

Greenhead Turf Management clinched the first place victory by placing first in the shooting and golf competition and second in bowling. This victory marked their 15th overall championship victory since the event was started 25 years ago.

Placing second in the overall competition was Flex-able Solutions with team members Evan Schoenecker of Winona, Brian Young and Rod Young of Woodbury and Alex Sentyrz of Savage. The third place overall team was Team Kneip with team members Nick Schoenecker, Jeff Kneip, Tim Hoffman and Adam Geisen, all of New Prague.

The first place finishers in bowling was Cunk - Q – Bine “A” team. Members were Virgil Pint of Jordan, Mike Pint of Wayzata, Matt Kramer of Rosemount and Ryan Volk of Minnetonka.

The triathlon, which is held in Montgomery on the third Saturday in August each year, is a competitive event for sportsmen and is a fundraiser for local wildlife projects in Le Sueur County.

More than $1,400 was raised at this year's event and the money will be donated to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which will match the amount raised and will seek further matching funds from other organizations to be spent locally on wildlife habitat projects or land acquisition in the Le Sueur County area.

Anyone interested in participating in next years event or possible wildlife projects in the area should contact Doug Schoenecker at 952-758-8873.
