One Tracy golfer will advance to the Sac-Joaquin Section Masters golf tournament next week, following his team\u2019s performance at the SJS Division 5 tournament on Monday at Micke Grove Golf Links in Lodi.<\/p>\n
Thomas Graham of Tracy, a freshman at Ripon Christian High, is a member of the Ripon Christian team that placed first at the Division 5 tournament with a score of 383. The first-place finish qualifies the entire team for the Masters tournament, to be held at The Reserve at Spanos Park in Stockton on Tuesday, May 19.<\/p>\n
Graham shot 74 on the par-72 course, which put him in a tie for sixth-place overall. His teammate, Hudson Schenk, tied for first place as an individual with a score of 68, which included six birdies for the day.<\/p>\n
SJS Division 1<\/p>\n
Kimball High golfer Zakariya Shalizi just missed qualifying for the Masters tournament, shooting 78 on the par 72 Rancho Murieta Country Club on Monday in the SJS Division 1 tournament. That left him just two strokes shy of qualifying as one of the top nine individual golfers who will advance to Masters.<\/p>\n
Shalizi and teammate Rayden Vierra, who shot 105 on Monday, were among the at-large golfers in the Division 1 tournament, as was Tracy High\u2019s Hayden Thein, who shot 91 on Monday. The individual champion was Luke Harrison of Pleasant Grove High, shooting 69.<\/p>\n
Six full teams advance to Masters, including Division 1 champion Jesuit (370), Granite Bay (390), Rocklin (390), Franklin of Elk Grove (394), Davis (397) and Pleasant Grove (397). The nine at-large individuals advancing all shot 76 or better.<\/p>\n
