MAY 183 20183 KEIZERTIMES3 PAGE B3 Dutcher leads McNary at state golf tournament By DEREK WILEY Of the Keizertimes On the toughest course he’s seen all season, McNary sophomore Joel Dutcher shot rounds of 79 and 83 on Monday and Tuesday at Emerald Valley Golf Club to fi nish 23rd overall at the 6A Boys Golf State Champion- ships. “I had a lot of fun,” Dutch- er said. “I learned a lot about that course. It’s defi nitely one of the hardest courses I’ve played in my life so far.” Dutcher played his best golf on the front nine, shoot- ing 2-over each day. It was the back nine that gave him problems, shoot- ing 5-over in round one and then 9-over in round two. “The back nine is re- ally challenging, really tight, and the greens sloped really hard,” Dutcher said. “Above the hole, you’ve got to be really careful going down because you can go off the green if you hit it hard enough. It’s really fast.” The 14th hole was the most challenging. Dutcher double bogeyed it Monday and then tripled it on Tues- day. “It’s super long,” Dutcher said. “The approach shot to the green is about 180, water to the right and you have a bunker to the left.” Dutcher fi nished his two rounds with four birdies and 19 pars. “I’m pretty happy with how I played,” Dutcher said. “There was a lot of 100s, a lot of 90s.” Sixteen golfers shot in the 90s on Monday and 20 on Tuesday. Six golfers reached 100. McNary junior Matt Lan- genwalter shot 87 on Mon- day and 82 on Tuesday to fi n- ish tied for 42nd. Playing in the girls tour- nament at Trysting Tree, Mc- Nary senior Hannah Elliott carded scores of 89 and 99. Juralee Stover, a junior shot 100 and 95.

McNary fi nished the sea- son 12-15. “I’m proud of the seniors. We’ll miss those guys,” Keeker said. “Now we’ll take a couple weeks off and on to summer ball and start to get ready for next year.” But Centennial scored two more runs in the top of the seventh on another error and Covalt grounded into a double play in the bottom of the inning, ending McNary’s season. “The good news is the kids kept battling and we gave it a shot,” Keeker said. “We just couldn’t stop them. They scored 15 runs. It’s hard to win TENNIS, continued from Page B1 Gina Munguia and Na- talia Gonzalez, who didn’t begin playing together until the last match of the season, reached quarterfi nals of the doubles bracket, where they lost to the eventual champi- ons Avari Ridgway and Amy Gilliat of McMinnville 6-0, 6-0. “They really have a lot of communication on the court and move well together,” Os- berg said of Munguia and Gonzalez. “I think both of them had their best matches. They kept being patient and kept the ball in play and tried to force errors from their opponents and it worked out.” McNary senior Katherine Perez regrouped from losing in the fi rst round to win four matches in a row, including a 5-7, 7-6, 6-0 victory over Hannah Leichty in the con- solation fi nals. In the boys tournament, McNary junior Alfredo Vil- larreal also rebounded after losing in the fi rst round to reach the consolation fi - nals, where he lost to Josiah Barkes of Sprague 6-1, 6-1. Villarreal shut out Rees Jones of South Salem 8-0 to get to the fi nals. “In practice, I’m just try- ing to get better everyday,” said Villareal, who only be- Don’t Lose Money from a ZILLOW Zestimate estimate PUT MY KEIZERTIMES/Derek Wiley ABOVE: Alfredo Villarreal plays in the consolation fi nals.

I’m trying to get better and put in effort every day and that’s how I’ve got to the point I am right now. I think I still have a lot of potential and I still have a lot of room to improve so if I just keep working I’ll be able to go even farther next year.” The 6A tennis state cham- pionships are May 17-19 at Babette Horenstein Tennis Center in Beaverton. Childress, the No. 7 seed, has a bye in the fi rst round and will get the winner of Olivia O’Halloran (Barlow) and Lucy Erickson (Sunset).
