Sam Aossey holed a 45-foot chip shot on the final hole to win the Iowa Senior Amateur Championship by one shot over Stu Parr.  Aossey's birdie on the last gave him a final round 72 and the title.  Parr closed with a 71 to put the heat on Aossey. 

Aossey's final four holes certainly did not lack excitement.  He struggled throughout the 15th hole before holing a 10-footer for bogey.  Then on the par-3 16th he short-sided himself off the tee and hit a pitch that settled approximately 35 feet from the hole.  He promptly holed that for par.  After a routine par on 17, Aossey was in prime position after two shots on the par-5 18th.  His third came up about 10 yards short of the putting surface setting the stage for his chip-in birdie and the win.

Finishing in a tie for third were Gary Engle and Robb Pomerantz.  For complete results click Here.         Net Results
