LSGH, St. Paul’s Pasig jungolfers break away

LUIGI Guerrero and JP de Claro stepped up when Miggy Yee struggled to sustain the breakaway of La Salle Green Hills in the third round of the Junior Division of the JGFP-ICTSI Inter-School golf tournament recently at Ayala Greenfield Estates course in Calamba, Laguna.

Over at Valley course, Daniella Uy and Mia Legaspi also poured it on for runaway leader St. Paul’s Pasig in the Girls 1 category.

Guerrero and De Claro combined for 103 points to cushion Yee’s worst round so far of 47 points as the LSGH squad chalked up 150 for a three-day aggregate of 454 and a virtually unassailable 56-point lead going into the final two rounds.

Even LSGH’s second unit could have matched the output of second-running La Salle Zobel which pooled  137 on the 50 points of Jama Reyes, 44 of Miguel Shah and 43 of John Molina. La Salle Zobel finished three rounds at different courses at 398. Ateneo was third at 390, Xavier fourth at 371, Brent and LSGH 3 tied for fifth at 325 and Xavier 2 at 299.

Uy found her range to shoot a one-under 71 equivalent to 57 points at Valley and Legaspi backed her up with a 54 for 111 points that pushed St. Paul’s farther ahead by 67 points over Ateneo, 315-248, also after 54 holes.

Paulina Sotto topscored  with 43 and Nicole Barreto chipped in 40 for Ateneo.
