Maynard Plays 126 Holes at Finley in 14-Plus Hours

On any given mid-June morning in Chapel Hill, life just begins to get moving by 8 a.m.

Summer school students are heading to class, traffic on Franklin Street is still pretty light and the bypasses and highways are full of commuters heading to work to begin another day.

Not too many of us can say that by early hour they've already played 36 holes of golf, a feat UNC Finley head professional Frank Maynard can attest to, which was just the beginning of a very long, yet enduringly rewarding day of golf.

Maynard, with the help of four playing partners, teed it up on Friday for 126 holes of golf – seven complete 18-hole rounds to raise money for scholarships for the children of military veterans through a PGA of America initiative called Folds of Honor.
