The Pacific Northwest Section PGA will induct Jeff Coston into the Pacific Northwest Golf Hall of Fame on Friday, April 26, at the Seattle Golf Club.

Coston, an instructor at the Semiahmoo Golf & Country Club, has won more PNWPGA major championships than any other professional or amateur in the 90-year history of the PNWPGA.

He's won the Pacific Northwest PGA Championship seven times, the Northwest Open two times, the Washington Open four times, the Oregon Open twice, the Rosauers Open three times and the Al Giusti Memorial once.

In 2006, Coston became the only Pacific Northwest Section professional to win the Senior PGA Professional National Championship. The following year he was low club professional in the Senior PGA Championship at Kiawah Island, S.C. His other titles include the 1977 PNGA Amateur Championship and the 1991 Shreveport Open on the Web.com Tour.

TEAM GOTTA WINS MARKSMANSHIP CHAMPIONSHIP

Team Gotta, a marksmanship team from Custer, defeated the U.S. Military Academy "Black" at West Point at the Scholastic Steel Challenge in Fort Benning, Ga.

Team Gotta set a new collegiate record at the SSC Collegiate nationals (209.37), set the individual record (45.22), took home $13,000 in prize money, and carried off two of SSC's traveling cups.

Team Gotta won the centerfire event and earned a win in the first-ever SSC rimfire, outpacing the USMA Black 197.40 to 203.96.

On the Smoke and Hope course, Team Gotta captain Keith Neher of Bellingham fired five shots at five different targets, striking each in just 1.58 seconds - an SSC course record.

Team Gotta's new record of 209.37 comes despite the fact that it went to its back-up shooter, Ben Huff of Blaine, when their top scorer, Sean Hughen-Coiro of Bellingham had to withdraw due to illness.

Top scorer Adam Rusling's 45.22 beat the previous record of 52.86 set last year by teammate Hughen-Coiro.
