Certified ExpertA.Yes. I believe you have got the idea, here. Unfortunately, it needs to run its course. You can control it and prevent further spread by keeping all debris raked up and spraying with fungicides. This article will go into more detail:

Certified ExpertA.It could be, but your tree doesn't have the tar-spot look yet. This article tells how to deal with it:

Most fungal leaf infections can be managed by cleaning up any fallen leaves, so the disease doesn't take hold next year, too.
