Disc Golf Cap
By Beth Beutler 		  
1     Colorful leaves fluttered in the crisp, cool air. It was cooler up here in the mountains than it was in the foothills where Matt lived.
 
2     He got out of his pickup truck and stretched his long legs while reaching his arms up to the sky. He yawned. He had gotten up early today to participate in the Ace Race. He had driven two hours to get to the park to compete against other players for a trophy and bag of disc golf discs.
 
3     Matthew had played disc golf for about a year. It was a sport in which players threw flying discs toward metal baskets. It was scored in a similar way to golf. The Ace Race tournament was a little different than a regular game. Players would get only one throw per basket. They would earn points based on whether they made the basket or at least hit it.
