Nine golf students' synchronized hole in one

Rewarding, unified focus and task accomplished, bravo!  

New York Daily News/Lee Moran, 2/18/13. " Video:  Holy hole in one times nine!  Golfers sink simultaneous putts in same hole."  Seniors at North Carolina's Campbell University accomplish neat feat in viral video.  

Hole in one video, noisy 34 seconds 

"Seniors at Campbell University's PGA Golf Management program, in North Carolina, performed the stunt for a student association sponsored contest.

Two cameras captured the action - which has now been seen online more than 12,000 times - from different angles. Students at the private Baptist University said they were thrilled with the feat - which beat the best efforts of the Golf Academy of America in Apopka, Florida.

Seniors in the Sunshine State (Florida) rose to fame last year with a similar stunt, but only managed to sink six shots in a row."

The January competition was to see how many people could line up and make a putt at the same time.  The winner was their senior class with nine people simultaneously sinking a putt. You could call it a hole-in-nine!"
