Junior Sarah Lo shot 87 at CCS on Nov. 1 after 18 holes at the Rancho Canada Golf Course (par 72), placing 54th out of 99 golfers.
Lo’s performance concluded the girls’ golf season. Lo was the lone representative for the Falcons after qualifying for CCS in Leagues individually. The Falcons did not qualify as a team.
This was Lo’s first go at CCS. Lo found the experience to be memorable.
“I gained experience and hopefully I'll be more ready next year because it was my first time and I was more nervous,” Lo said.
Waking up bright and early at 4:45 am, Lo headed with head coach David Gragnola to arrive at the Rancho Canada Golf Course for her 8 a.m. tee time.
“It was overall a good experience and it felt good to make it to CCS even though I didn't play well there and had to wake up super early to drive there,” Lo said.
In between Leagues and CCS, Lo practiced at Saratoga Country Club with Gragnola.
“The practices were a lot more focused,” Lo said. “We could go on the course and work on specific shots, so I had more individual attention and coaching
The team will lose four seniors to graduation next season, so Lo believes that the team has work to do to make up for the losses.
“We all just need to keep practicing on our own and get out on the course to keep improving and not get rusty,” Lo said.
