As the local girls golf season winds down, several area teams are making it a point to finish strong. At The Bishop\u2019s School, the Lady Knights recently posted a 227-331 victory over San Dieguito Academy. Leading the way for Bishop\u2019s was Courtney Hooton with a 32, followed by Spenser Krut (35), McKenna Meyer (42), Alexa Bisbas (52) and Monica Kim (66). Krut had a strong finish with an eagle on the ninth hole and a one-under-par 35.\u00a0 Meantime, Hooton birdied five of the last seven holes to take the medalist honors and to set a new Bishop\u2019s scoring record with her 32.\u00a0This was just two strokes short of the all-time San Diego high school record.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 After getting some coaching from Alexa and Courtney, Monica Kim really started to master the shot and eventually had no trouble blasting out of the difficult greenside bunkers.\u00a0 Elsewhere, La Jolla Country Day (LJCD) School posted a 300-359 win over San Dieguito Academy. Freshman Kristen Mizutani\u00a0(55), junior Brooke Mehregany\u00a0(57) and senior Jennie Kim (57) were low scorers for the Lady Torreys. In other action, LJCD traveled to Riverwalk to take on Francis Parker and Canyon Crest in a tri-match.\u00a0The Lancers shot a sterling 196, and both Country Day and Canyon Crest totaled 271.\u00a0 Mehregany (44) shot her lowest total of the year to lead LJCD. Finally, La Jolla High dropped a 276-238 decision to Our Lady of Peace last week. Juliette Garay (medalist) was the lead scorer, carding a 38, and Alexis Tarakjian carded a 50.\u00a0 “This was an impressive individual and team effort against one of the toughest league opponents,” La Jolla High head coach Allen Merryman noted. In other action, La Jolla dropped a 271-230 decision to Point Loma High. Garay (medalist) shot a 41 and Tarakjian carded a 49, her lowest score of the season so far.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
