THE DAILY ASTORIAN • THURSDAY, APRIL 7, 2016 SPORTS 5A North Coast equestrian riders show to win Like the azaleas, skipping balls on 16 a Masters’ tradition The Daily Astorian In the words of coach Brit- tany Israel, Meet No. 2 for the local Oregon High School Equestrian Team “was a huge success.” Riders from Astoria and Knappa — who compete travel and compete together in the same meets — “had all their athletes and horses, and were able to compete in performance, gaming, and do team events,” she said. The two high school eques- trian teams recently returned from McMinnville, where riders from Astoria and Knappa High Schools competed in another OHSET event. Some of the highlights for the locals included a ¿rst-place ¿nish in Saddle Seat Equita- tion for Knappa’s Ellie Smith; and Smith added fourth-place showings in the Figure 8, with a time of 11.184 (out of 60 riders); and the Barrels, with a time of 15:418 (out of 68). In the Western Horse- manship competition, (out of 30 riders), Knappa’s Kaitlyn /andwehr was ¿fth, Astoria’s Kaisa Israel placed sixth, and Smith was eighth. Israel was sixth in Showmanship. “A lot of these athletes and their horses have weekly les- sons, participate in 4H, and compete at various places and shows,” coach Israel said. “Both these teams represented our county very well. I am beyond proud of them and how far along they are all coming. It has been such a fun year and all the girls get along great.” The ¿nal meet of the year for the two teams takes place today through Sunday in McMinnville.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — The chants start as soon as each group has ¿nished teeing off at the 16th hole. “Skip! Skip! Skip!” At staid ol’ Augusta National, this is the closest thing to a party. “The fans get pretty irate when they don’t skip the ball,” said Masters patron Dave Goldbach of Buffalo, sipping on a beer as the ¿nal groups came through in the fading sunlight of Tuesday’s practice round. For many, this is the place to be before the ¿rst maMor of the year gets going for real, a chance to watch everyone from the biggest names in golf to unknown amateurs attempt to skip the ball off the water — the more times, the better — and land it safely on the green. It’s a technique roughly akin to throwing a smooth rock across a glassy pond. Only in this case, it’s done with a 4-iron instead of a strong arm, after dropping a ball on the downslope in the second cut of grass between the tee box and the water on the 170-yard hole known as “Redbud,” tucked back in a far corner of the course, about as far from the clubhouse as you can get. The 16th — essentially a tee and a green connected by a narrow strand of water — has been the sight of many dra- matic moments at the Mas- ters, from Tiger Woods holing an improbable chip that car- ried him to the green Macket in 2005 to Greg Norman dump- ing his tee shot in the water to ¿nish off a stunning collapse two decades ago. Tradition There’s nothing on the line during the practice rounds, which allowed for a tradition that dates to the 1980s and has become as much a part of the place as blooming azaleas and pimento cheese sandwiches. No one in an of¿cial capac- ity is quite sure when all this started, but former player Ken Green took credit for it during an interview with Golfweek. Davis Love III played his ¿rst Masters in 1988. Even as more and more players took part, he refused for sev- eral years to Moin the skip-a- thon at No. 16, mindful that club founders Clifford Rob- erts and Bobby Jones likely would’ve frowned on those sort of hiMinks. “I didn’t think it was in the tradition of the Masters,” Love said. “Then I started getting booed.” Indeed, this is the one spot where the patrons, who are expected to be on their best behavior most of the week, can let down their hair Must a bit. Not to say the heck- ling approaches anything you might hear coming from the bleachers at Yankee Stadium, but no one will be thrown off the grounds if they direct a hearty catcall at anyone who refuses to take part. “When no one put a note in my locker saying not to do it,” Love went on, “I decided it must be OK. So I started doing it again.” SCOREBOARD PREP SCHEDULE TODAY Baseball — Astoria at Scappoose, 5 p.m.; Seaside at Valley Catholic, 5 p.m.; Naselle at Warrenton, 4:30 p.m. Softball — Clatskanie at Astoria (2), 4 p.m.; Warrenton at Seaside, 4:30 p.m. Track — Warrenton at Portland Christian, 3:30 p.m. Girls Golf — Astoria, Seaside at Valley Catholic, 1 p.m. Boys Golf — Seaside at Astoria, 2 p.m. FRIDAY Baseball — Gaston at Knappa (2), 3 p.m. Softball — Gaston at Knappa (2), 3 p.m. Track — Seaside at McKenzie, 10 a.m. SATURDAY Baseball — Fort Vancouver at Seaside (2), 1 p.m.; Monroe at Warren- ton (2), 1 p.m. Softball — Monroe at Warrenton (2), 1 p.m. Track — Lower Columbia Invitational, St. Helens; Willamette U.
