Not even fog can stop San Marcos
Dense, wet fog was covering Sandpiper Golf Course.
But apparently it takes more than bizarre weather to stop San Marcos. The Royals beat Santa Ynez 264-269 Tuesday in a close match at the Goleta course.
Despite the conditions, Stella Ashamalla led the Royals with a score of 49.
Coach Sarah Ashton said Ashamalla “has really found her groove and consistency recently.
“It’s fun watching her play, and we rely on her low scores regularly,” the coach told the News-Press in an email.
The other Royals and their scores were Evelina Erickson, 50: Sadi Adams, 53; Fia Torrey, 54; Riley O’Brien, 58; and Campbell Thayer, 64.
Mackenzie Phelan led the Pirates with a score of 46. The other Pirates and their scores were Alison Swanitz, 53; Sierra Freedman, 54; Emily Ruiz, 57; Kylee Johnson, 69; and Addison West, 66.
