Each player stated their favorite memory from the past season. Sophomore Grace Johnson said, “My favorite memory is when we would just have fun life talks on the putting green before our match.”

Freshmen Sonnie Duvall said, “My favorite memory from golf was going to matches and meeting and playing with the other teams. Next year I’m most looking forward to meeting my new teammates and seeing how much the team has improved.”

Sophomore Allie Weinert reflected, “My favorite memory from golf is when Gianna and I tried using British accents for a whole match. Next year I am excited for try-outs and meeting new freshmen that come to the team.”

Duvall remarked, “My favorite memory this year was getting to go out and play against other teams, getting to know everyone, and making new friends. Next year I’m looking forward to making new friends and just having lots of fun.”

Freshmen Zoie Fuentes reflected on the year, commenting, “My favorite memories are when we all went to Tustin Ranch to eat lunch, and when we would make TikToks together.”
