Gabby Kosziwka (left) and Ashley Nixon have a busy month of tournaments ahead of them as the beach volleyball duo was able to qualify for both provincial and national competitions by playing in age groups above them earlier in the season. Next week, they'll be in Ottawa for the Ontario Summer Games. Submitted photo Georgetown Beach volleyballers making waves A pair of 15-year-old beach volleyball players from Limehouse have made waves on the Ontario Volleyball Association circuit by more than holding their own against more-experienced competition so far in 2006 tournament play. Gabby Kosziwka and Ashley Nixon set a goal before the season of earning spots in the OVA's Athlete Development Program for elite players in the province, and a berth in the Ontario Summer Games Aug. 9-13 in Ottawa. But in order to do so, they had to compete in under-18 girls' tournaments and achieve a required number of points in each event to qualify. After finishing fifth in two of the tourneys and ninth in another, the local pair ranked seventh out of 40 teams and was sent invitations to compete in the ADP and the OSG. Nixon and Kosziwka played in a high school tournament against girls in their age group at Victoria Beach in Cobourg recently and swept through the draw, not losing a single game out of seven best-of-three matches. Also on court for the Grade 10 Acton High School students are the Ontario and Canadian championship tournaments later this month. Greenwell in U.S. amateur Georgetown's Robbie Greenwell shot two tidy rounds of four-under-par 68 earlier this week in Buffalo, N.Y. to qualify for the United States Golf Association's Men's Amateur Championship, to be held Aug. 21-27 at the Hazeltine National Golf Club in Minnesota. The 20-year-old North Halton Golf & Country Club member was one of just six players out of a field of over 90 golfers who made it through Monday's 36-hole regional qualifier at the Links at Ivy Ridge course, just outside Buffalo. Greenwell finished second overall, four shots back of the winner, Dustin Johnson of South Carolina, the lone U.S. player out of the six to qualify at Ivy Ridge. It was the second time that Greenwell, heading into his junior year on the University of Memphis varsity men's golf team, has attempted to qualify for the U.S. Amateur, which was established in 1895. There are 98 qualifying sites held across the country, with 7,182 golfers vying for one of 312 spots in the tournament. Greenwell is also entered in the Canadian men's amateur championships Aug. 12-18 in Mississauga. The Georgetown District High School grad finished in a tie for 15th spot in last week's Toronto Star Amateur, shooting a final-round 75, 18 shots off the lead.
