Lady Rangers head into league play with 4-2 record
by Misty Volaski

Despite losing their last two games, Nordhoff's girls' golf team looks to have a fighting chance for a top three position in league this year.
With seasoned players such as Jody Peter and Kristin Johnson leading the team with scores consistently in the low 40s, the Rangers seem to be off to a good start.
Against Port Hueneme and Carpinteria, Peter shot a career-best 40, while Johnson shot a 45. Peter's 40 was the lowest score posted in the last three years for the girls' team. Nordhoff ended up with the win, with a combined team score of 259 to Hueneme's 310 and Carpinteria's 312.
Nordhoff's luck began to run out, however, against San Marcos, who bested the Rangers, 230-259. Johnson posted a 44, while Peter shot a 49. Teammate Breann Keller tied Peter with a career-best 49.
Again, however, the Rangers were taken down, this time by Santa Barbara, who shot a 250 to Nordhoff's 264.
Johnson came out on top of the Ranger team, shooting a 43. Peter followed, with a 45.
The Rangers will begin league play tomorrow against Malibu. Coach Dick Sebek seemed confident, noting that his team "is really improving a lot. They're very receptive to learning how to play and the tips we give them. They are a really dedicated group."
