High in a league match 212 to 248 at San Luis Rey Downs CC (par 36). The

by coach Demarre was Jesse Antal who shot a career best 41.

squeaked by Horizon H.S. 255 to 256 at Eagle Crest GC (par 36). The medalist
was ECHS player Blair McKeithen at 39. Gabe Writer of ECHS was second
lowest at 42. Overall it was neither school's best performance. The two
low Horizon players, George Kramb and Patrick Frank tied at 45, but everyone
else on both teams scored in the 50's or 60's.

On 3/31/08 San Deguito Academy defeated Escondido Charter
High in a league match 210 to 268 at Eagle Crest Golf Club (par 36) The
medalist was Escondido Charter player Sam Johnston at 39. San Deguito
had no players under 40 but their five scorers all shot between 40 and
45. The course was especially challenging due to annual greens aeration
and sanding performed last week.

On 3/20, Escondido Charter High and Calvin Christian recorded
the exact same total score (227) for the top five finishers in a league
match at Twin Oaks GC (par 36). The medalist was Blair Mckeithen at 33.
At the conclusion of the match neither school was sure how to resolve
the tie or whether it should just be recorded as a tie. It was suggested
that the scores of the sixth players should be counted to break the tie.
In that case Calvin Christian would be the winner. The league coordinator
will make the final decision.
On 3/25, in a non-league match, Escondido Charter High defeated
Guajome Park Academy at Eagle Crest golf course (Par 36) 222 to 285. The
Medalist was Blair McKeithen at 37. This is the lowest score the ECHS
team has ever recorded. Congratulations to the #4 and #5 players, Bryce
Scharf and Anthony Garcia who both shot their career best and combined
shaved 15 stokes off the teams overall score.
