A Jack Henry & Associates-sponsored team captured top honors in the morning round of the Lake of the Ozarks Celebrity Golf Classic presented by Missouri Eagle.

The Missouri Sports Hall of Fame event was held Monday at the Club at Porto Cima near Osage Beach. The afternoon was rained out after thunderstorms swept across the Lake of the Ozarks region in the early afternoon.

However, before the rains came, Advertising Plus owner Marc Kiser aced No. 3 on his first swing of the day, using a 9-iron on a 151-yard shot. It was his eighth hole in one of his career.
