SHELTON - J&B Auto Body held its second annual Hoodie Tournament Nov. 29 at Highland Golf Club. 

Jay Correia, owner of J&B Auto Body, hosted nearly 50 golfers who participated in the tournament. 
The event is held each year after Thanksgiving when the weather can be somewhat questionable. 
The format for the tournament is a two-person team scramble with the top three teams winning money prizes. 
First place went to Paul Fitzgerald and Dom Ebert (4 under par), second place to Mark Stewart and Matt Ramia (3 under par), third place to Robert Maler and Brian Maler (also 3 under par with match of cards). 
Pizza and wings were supplied to the golfers and Rich Tilki made a large pot of his famous chili. 
All of the winners donated their prize money back to the event; this year's tournament made more than $1,400, which was presented to the Boys & Girls Club of the Lower Naugatuck Valley.
