Golf - Boys and Girls.

Both the boys and girls varsity golf teams were in action this past week with the boys at Cedarcrest GC near Marysville on Wednesday and the girls at the Whidbey Golf & Country Club in Oak Harbor on Thursday.

In the boys match, OH #4 Austin Fields had a great day, shooting a 76 to finish in a tie for second place. #1 Judd Ford scored 77 to earn 4th place. Matt Fikse shot 82 and Greg Martin 87 to round out the OH scores.

Overall, Oak Harbor finished in 3rd place with a combined score of 412. Lake Stevens was first with 401 and host Marysville 2nd with 404.

Before Thursday's girls match, Coach Wesley took some time to acknowledge his 3 seniors - Ashley Johnson, Simone Hamilton and Melany Cone. The 3 seniors were very easy to spot on the course as they all had a big balloon tied to their golf bag.

Although two Everett golfers captured the two top spots, Oak Harbor's consistency won the day as the Wildcat girls finished 3-4-5-6-8 to earn 229 points. Everett was 2nd with 219 and Stanwood a distant third with 74 points.

Simone was the top OH golfer with 50 points. Mel got 49, Ashley 47, Sasha Olson 47 and Millie Goebel 36.

Overall this season, Cone is the #2 female golfer in WESCO North. She has a point average of 17, just 0.6 points behind an Everett girl. Simone is 7th with 15 points, Johnson 16th with 11.9 points, Sasha 20th with 11.5, and Millie 22nd with 11.3. Mara Cortez is 41st and averages 5.4 points while the 60th girl, from Lake Stevens, has an average of just 0.4 points.

In team standings, OH is in 5th place with 12 team points, behind Marysville with 14 and Everett & Monroe with 13 each.
