“I was really pressing to almost leave and start now, and then, if I had to, come back and finish my education, but I don’t know,” he said. “I don’t think that’s the best way to go about it. As much as I want to start playing professionally, I think I should finish school first.

“It almost makes sense to wait, but I’m itching and it’s something I’m definitely thinking about every day.”

There are a few of big reasons why Wytinck decided to keep his amateur status for 2014. The first is the Canadian University/College Golf Championship that will be taking place at Southwood, the second is the Canadian amateur that is slated for Southwood and Elmhurst.

Then he would love to qualify for the Canadian amateur as the Manitoba champion, which is a title he held in 2012.

“That would be a nice way to get in, yeah,” he said. “Any way possible, I’ll Josh Wytinck take it.” UP CLOSE with Josh Wytinck, co-winner of 2013 NAMED MANITOBA Manitoba golfer of the year

He will compete in the Manitoba men’s amateur and also plans to play in the 111th Trans-Mississippi Championship, one of the top U.S. amateur events that this year will be played at the presti- gious Southern Hills Country Club July 7-10.

“It’s supposed to be a really good tournament,” Cockerill said. “That’s my big event that I’m going to do beside the normal ones that I usually do.”

Means revamped Cockerill’s swing when he arrived at the University of Idaho several years ago, and he’s quite comfortable with his swing mechanics. So now it’s all about making his short game better.

“Everyone hits the ball relatively the same,” he said. “It’s just all about getting it in the hole a little quicker.”

If he can do that, Cockerill might be able to knock down the door at the men’s amateur. He was the runner-up to Derek East in Neepawa last year, and in 2012 he lost in a four-man play- AARON COCKERILL off to Wytinck. The year before that, in 2011, he tied for fifth.

The Manitoba Golf Hall of Fame and Museum held its 11th annual induction ceremony on Sept. 30, 2013, at McPhillips Station Casino, and four individuals were honoured for their long and distinguished golf careers.

Entering the hall were Mike Pidlaski and Donna Thompson in the athlete category, and Raymond Savard and Charles E. Harvey in the builder division.

Here is a look at their accomplishments:

After making his mark on the municipal golf scene before his stint in the air force, the Pidlaski brothers played for several years at St. Boniface before winding up their careers at Elmhurst.

His earlier golf triumphs included the Windsor club championship and city municipal championship in 1938, and the Airflite championship, featuring 220 players from all municipal courses, in 1941.
