Christine Fields, certified superstar.
No fade.
Coupeville High School junior Christine Fields held onto her spot from Day 1, and strolled into the clubhouse at the end of the 1A state girls’ golf championships in fifth place.
Fields, who shot an 84 Wednesday at Lake Spanaway Golf Course, followed that up with an 89 Thursday to finish with a two-day total of 173.
Her fifth-place finish was a personal best, following an 8th place finish as a freshman and a 15th place showing as a sophomore.
Lauryn Keating of Elma tore up the course Thursday with a 73, to catch and pass defending champ Bree Wandersheid of Goldendale.
Down by two strokes entering the final round, Keating won the title by a single stroke, 151-152.
Rosie Portillo of South Whidbey, who Fields traveled and trained with during the regular season, as Coupeville doesn’t have a golf program of its own, finished 6th, two shots off of the Lone Wolf.
The Cascade Conference had an especially strong showing, as Fields and Portillo were joined in the top seven by King’s deadly duo of Hannah Roh (4th) and Charis Tsai (7th).
The Knights beat out Seattle Academy and Woodland for the team title.
