SRJC Golf: Bear Cubs under par in Big 8 Championships

The Santa Rosa Junior College men’s golf team got stuck in a rough patch at the NorCal Championships on May 6, placing last with a total score of 853.

 
“It was pretty terrible, [but] we all had fun out there,” said SRJC sophomore golfer Tucker Williams.

 
The championships consisted of two rounds: one round in the morning, starting at 7:30, and the other in the afternoon.

 
Williams’ combined score from the morning and afternoon rounds was a total of 172. Patrick Steiner scored 161, Clayton Sarrif scored 181, Taylor Battaglia scored 164, Oliver Durra scored 176, and Jonathan Morgan scored 187.

 
With a total morning round score of 426 and an afternoon score of 427, the Bear Cubs got a team score of 853.

 
“We normally play better than that,” said head coach Dave Herrington.

 
Though they are disappointed with the outcome, the Bear Cubs look at it with a positive viewpoint.

 
“Everybody can have a bad day at the same time, and yesterday was just one of those days,” Williams said.

 
The Bear Cubs finished the season with a No. 3 seed in the conference and placed No. 6 in the regionals.

 
“Overall the kids worked hard, and that’s all you can ask for,” Herrington said.
