They never saw it coming.
Because of a quirk in the system, Coupeville High School senior Christine Fields never went head-to-head with the other golfers in the Olympic League until Tuesday.
Once she did, she slapped ’em silly.
Carding an 85 over 18 holes at Dungeness Golf Course in Sequim, Fields romped to the 1A girls title (by an astonishing 10 strokes!) and earned a berth at the district tourney May 19.
From there, she’ll try and earn a fourth consecutive appearance at state.
As a junior Fields finished 5th in 1A.
Because CHS doesn’t have a golf team, she trained and traveled with Island mate South Whidbey, which meant her regular season play came in the 1A/2A Cascade Conference.
With the start of the postseason, she reverted to the Olympic League, which the rest of the Wolf sports teams have competed in this year.
