By COLIN FARQUHARSON Colin@scottishgolfview.com Paul Lawrie's older son Craig contributed to a very good  team effort by Robert Gordon's College to win the Scratch Trophy in the Paul Lawrie Foundation North-east Schools Team Challenge golf tournament at Peterculter Golf Club today (Monday). Finlay McPherson led the way with a 76 - the CSS was 73 (reduction only)  - on another windy day in the North-east. Craig Lawrie had a 77 and Ross Green an 82 for a team score of 235. The RGC trio won by five shots from Aboyne Academy who claimed the Handicap Trophy with a net score of 227 from Craig Stephen (5) 75, Lewis McWilliam (5) 75 and Kimberley Beveridge (3) 77. Gordon's College, incidentally, had the lowest net total of 223. It's against the competition rules to win a 1-2-3 prize in both the scratch and handicap categories so Cults Academy (Andrew Carrell 74, Jamie Pryde 82 and Calum Sutherland 91) moved up to fill second place with a total of 247. Carrell's 74 was the lowest of the day. Banff Academy (Kerr Baptie 78, Lewis Mutch 79, Craig McKay 92) finished third on 249 after a card countback against Alford Academy who also totalled 249. It was Alford Academy's day. Their team members, Ray Gordon 82, Callum Coutts 82 and Andrew Lamb 85, also lost out on a countback for third place in the handicap section. St Machar Academy - Chris Somers (8) 75, Andrew McKenzie (9) 76 and Mark Rimmer 96) 77 - were placed second with a net total of 228 and The Gordon Schools, Huntly - Glenn Murison (20) 72, Jack McGowan (13) 79 and Mitch Murison (18) 79 - edged out Alford Academy to take third place on 230.  Three teams had to be disqualified for playing off some wrong tees. They were Bridge of Don Academy, Dyce Academy and Westhill Academy. This was the ninth year of the event, organised by Derek Johnstone. Paul Lawrie was there to make the presentations before he flies out tomorrow to the Swiss Open golf championship. Collated scores CSS: Boys 73 (reduction only.
