Sackett Cards Ace
     Pete Sackett is a cool and collected golfer, almost.
     The Amherst resident, playing in the Elyria City League at Cherry Ridge Country Club last night, walked off the par three No. 3 hole and calmly stuck up one finger to his partners.
     He had scored the first hole-in-one of his links career, using nine-iron on the 130-yard hole.
     Without the usual hollering and excitement, he treated his playing mates after the game and went home, seemingly unaffected by the entire event.
     Upon reaching home, however, the building contractor couldn't find his clubs. A call to the country club revealed he had left them standing in the parking lot – cart and all.
     Who wasn't excited?
