Laguna Beach at Samueli Academy and CDM

Today due to some scheduling conflicts, we had two Varsity opponents on our schedule.  We decided to send the JV team to do battle against Samueli Academy and the Varsity to Corona del Mar.  Our JVs played well and knocked off a Varsity team = 269 to 273.  A narrow four stroke victory!  This was huge for our program and showed our depth throughout the program.

But that's not the end of the story.  When I got to school today, I found out that three of our girls would be unable to play due to illness: two of our Varsity girls and one of our JV.  With only 15 girls in the whole program, it meant that everyone (who was healthy) would be called upon. Also it meant that Brooklyn Conlon would need to play her first Varsity match as a freshman.

Our Varsity team went up against CDM, one of our league opponents and unfortunately we lost by a mere 9 strokes: 251--260.  However, we played well and hit some great shots throughout.  Still room for improvement but we are getting better as a team and a program which is great to see!

Our JV medalist was Abby Amish with a 49 and our Varsity medalist was Maya Vidas with a 44.

Laguna Beach vs Marina (Varsity and JV)

Both Varsity and JV today played pretty well in our last league match of the year.  I saw some inspired golf as each girl wanted to end her ...
