Sim, Vaqueros sink Canyons, WSC at SBGC

Asaka Sim, a freshman from Dos Pueblos High, fired a 3-over-par 75 on Monday at the Santa Barbara Golf Club, leading SBCC to its sixth win in seven WSC meets.

The Vaqueros finished at 323 in their only home match to beat runner-up Canyons by 20 shots. Sim turned in a 1-under 33 on the back nine to earn medalist honors for the second time this year.

Jackie Molstad had a 78 for SBCC, Sumika Sim shot 84 and Jenna Boyle turned in an 86.

“We were consistent and that’s what we need to advance,” said coach Chuck Melendez, whose team has already earned a berth in the Southern Cal Regional on Nov. 9-10.

The Vaqueros improved to 34-1 in WSC play, extending their lead over Canyons to six games with two meets remaining. The last two WSC meets will be contested during the WSC Championships on Nov. 2-3 at Buenaventura and Olivas Links in Ventura.
