In a surprising turn of events yesterday the Sea Queens, ranked 9th in the Pacific Coast League, tied the 2nd seed Newport Harbor Sailors. Both teams shot a respectable 222.
The Santa Ana Country Club played host to this back and forth match between the two teams.
Ashley Varner medaled for the Sea Queens with 41 shots on a front 9 – par 36.
Tensions ran high among the varsity squad as they walked out onto the fairways. Newport Harbor seemed to be an insurmountable force, having not lost a match in the Sunset League. CdM’s Girls Varsity Coach Mike Starkweather could be heard uttering words of encouragement. Clearly they helped.
This match is without a doubt an example of the determination the Sea Queens have portrayed throughout the season to ascend in the rankings.
The Sea Queen’s record remains at 6-2-0 in league and 8-6-2 overall.
