Royals bring down score against Yellowjackets

The San Marcos girls golf team improved on its opening day round, but the Royals still fell to Oxnard 245-292 at River Ridge Golf Course.

Alexandria Peretiako scored San Marcos’ low round with a 51 while Nicole Francisco took home medalist honors for the Yellowjackets with a 40.

The Royals shaved 16 strokes off the previous day’s round by having 4-of-5 golfers lower their scores. Zaira Barbosa posted a 53 and Sofi Castanon a 60.

“We still need to work on getting everyone shooting in the 50’s and then continue to improve from there,” said Royals coach Shawn Ricci.
