NAMPA — Dale Johnson of Hayden rallied over the final six holes to capture the men’s 40-and-over age division at the Idaho Golf Association match play championships last weekend at RedHawk Golf Course.

Johnson, who was three down after 12 holes, came back to defeat Darren Kuhn of Pocatello 1-up in the 18-hole final.

Johnson shot a 2-over-par 73 in the seeding round on Thursday to earn the No. 1 seed heading into the match-play portion of the event.

Johnson defeated Stephen Hartnett of Boise 1-up in the round of 8, then beat Steve Judy of Meridian 5 and 3 in the semifinals.
