GLF: McBride goes low for Royals

MacKenzie McBride’s 41 at Rancho Maria Golf Club paced San Marcos’ girls golf team to a 225-241 non-league win over Righetti on Wednesday. The Royals improve to 3-0 to start the season.

McBride was supported by Mallory Sestak at 43, Lauren Pitchford at 44, Alex Pitchford at 47 and Amanda Chen at 50.

“The girls all responded well to the challenge of playing a new course,” reported Royals head coach Sarah Ashton. “We were really pleased with a great showing from all of the players today.”

Chen is a first-year varsity player who scored for the first time on Wednesday.

“She has really worked hard on her game in the off-season and that showed in her performance today. She is a very focused player.”

San Marcos’ next match is next week at Birnam Wood.
