Brooke Riley continues to amaze.

At Wednesday’s Valley Oak League match against rival Manteca High, the East Union High ace golfer fired a two-under par 35 during the nine-hole match at the Manteca Park Golf Course.

“Brooke is always amazing,” said Lancers coach Brian Goulart.

In the process, Riley kept East Union (6-0 in VOL, 10-0 overall) perfect for the season.

The Lancers tallied 220 (no score or individual results were reported for the Buffaloes).

Manteca dropped its mark to 3-5.

East Union received balanced scoring. Natalie Cowan shot a 43.

“She’s playing as good as she did a year ago,” Goulart added.

Allie Tajii (46), Brittany Conijn (48), and Chloe Cardenas (49) rounded out the Lancers’ scoring.

East Union will host Oakdale today.

 

Ripon def. Escalon

The Indians improved to 5-0 with a Trans Valley League victory over Escalon. 

Breeanna Huckell, Ripon’s No. 2 player, carded a 38 to help lead the way.

She finished a stroke better than Huckell (39).

Samantha Carl (42), Claire Weaver (45), Sierra Atilano (45), and Alyssa Demara (47) also contributed to the Ripon cause.
