NEWPORT BEACH -- After the first nine holes at Western Hills
Country Club Thursday, El Dorado High's girls golf team has a three-shot
edge over Newport Harbor, 137-140.
For the Sailors, Kelly Hunt shot a 45, Shelly Roberts carded a 48 and
Lindsay Galbreath came in with a 52.
"It wasn't an exceptional round for us," Newport Harbor Coach Jim
Warren said. "We just couldn't seem to get it going."
The Sailors were coming off back-to-back wins, that included a new
school record score on Tuesday. With a 129, Newport Harbor charted the
new record at Big Canyon Country Club. Then on Wednesday, the team
finished up against Foothill with another win, 279-306.
"I think this one we were a little tired," Warren said of Thursday's
match. "With their three-stroke lead, we'll be fine going into the second
part."
Today, Newport Harbor will be playing in a four-team tournament at
Palm Desert Country Club in Palm Springs. The action will begin at 1 p.m.
and will feature Notre Dame of San Jose, San Clemente and Palm Desert.
