Golden Valley’s team of Pierre, Justine Reblando, Illeana Dullas, Gabby Mendoza and Camille Mendoza combined to shoot a 226 on the front nine to give the Grizzlies a 4-shot advantage over two-tine defending league champion West Ranch. The season-long total margin of 18 strokes gave the league championship to Golden Valley.
West Ranch took the Newhall Cup team title for the 27-hole event, edging Golden Valley by seven strokes. Hart finished third followed by Valencia, Saugus and Canyon.
For individual New hall Cup honors, Pierre finished tied with West Ranch freshman Ashley Mayhall at 118 over the 27 holes. Pierre won the championship when she tapped in a 5-foot birdie putt on the second playoff hole.
Pierre won the league MVP race by six strokes over Mayhall. Hart’s Katie Corr finished third followed by Valencia’s Eunice Song and West Ranch’s Kate Caffrey.
“The league championship was our goal at the beginning of the season,” said Golden Valley head coach Tony Moskal. ”I told them we had an opportunity to win and we did. There was a bump along the way (week 5), but every single girl did a great job bouncing back to finish what we set out to do.”
