Two aces, softball champions, equine aftercare and football camp: Five at 5

Here are five sports items to chew on with breakfast this Wednesday morning:

1. Phil Raudensky carded a hole-in-one Tuesday at The Country Club of Harrisburg, acing the 121-yard sixth hole with a 9-iron. His playing partners were Dr. Gustavson, Bill Schantzenbach, John Trach and Terry Dinsmore.

2. Nate Beamer recently carded a hole-in-one at Newport American Legion Country Club, acing the 265-yard third hole with a 3-wood. His playing partners were Jerry Bitting, Andy Buffington and Sean Moyer.

3. The 14U Pennsylvania Poison fast pitch softball team won last weekend?s 18U Northern Virginia/Maryland Shootout in Hagerstown, Md. The Poison went 5-0 on the weekend, defeating the Faquier Freeze 18U squad from Faquier County, Va., in the championship game 10-9 that required three extra innings of international tiebreaker play. The team has seven more tournaments this spring and summer, beginning this weekend in Franklin County and culminating with a trip to Pony Nationals in Newtown, Pa., in late July.

4. The Daily Racing Form is pitching in to help raise money and awareness for equine aftercare on Penn Mile Day, June 1, at Hollywood Casino at Penn National Race Course in Grantville. The DRF has donated black and red hats with the DRF logo and copies of Brad Free?s book, ?Handicapping 101: An Introduction to Betting on Horses.? The hat and book will be available for $15 each at on-track informational kiosks for three equine aftercare organizations: CANTER of Pennsylvania, New Vocations Racehorse Adoption Program, and ReRun, Inc., with all proceeds going to benefit those organizations. Penn National will be also donating a total of $10,000 to the three organizations. The June 1 racing card begins at 6 p.m.

5. The Trinity Youth Football Camp will be held June 24-27 from 6-8 p.m. each night and is open to students in grades three through nine. The cost is $65 per camper. For details, visit www.thsrocks.pa.us, click on athletics, and football. Questions can be emailed to TrinityFBCoach@gmail.com.
