Contreras wins golf playoff at Eagleglen

James Contreras parred the second playoff hole Sunday to turn back Robert Nelson and win the professional division of the Eagleglen Open at Eagleglen Golf Course.

Contreras and Nelson were tied at 6-under 138 through 36 holes -- Nelson shot a 4-under 68 Sunday and Contreras delivered a 2-under 70 -- and that prompted a sudden-death playoff.

Both men made par on the first playoff hole and Contreras' par bested Nelson's bogey on the second playoff hole.

Terry McAngus won the women's division with a 36-hole total of 151.
