Fields comes out firing (birdies)!!

After graduation, Christine Fields is off to San Diego State

   After graduation, Christine Fields is off to matriculate at San Diego State. First, though, she has one last high school golf season.

You wouldn’t know it from The Everett Herald, but Christine Fields had a pretty darn good day Thursday.

While the big city papers overlooked Coupeville High School’s one-woman golf team (again), her opponents certainly took notice.

The Wolf senior, kicking off a bid for a fourth straight trip to state, finished tied for second in a field of 11 duffers who teed off at Whidbey’s Useless Bay Golf and Country Club.

Fields carded a 47 while playing nine holes, which translates to a 25 in modified Stableford scoring. She tied with South Whidbey’s Rosie Portillo, just behind the day’s medalist, Falcon Tara Moore, who recorded a 27.

South Whidbey hammered Cedarcrest 112-72 in the team competition.

As the only CHS golfer, Fields trains and travels with South Whidbey while repping Coupeville’s red and black in competition.

Tee it up, one more time!!

Christine Fields fires away.

Christine Fields fires away.

Christine Fields is the gold standard.

The Coupeville High School senior golfer has advanced to state in each of her three previous seasons, claiming a top-15 finish each time.

Her best performance came a year ago, when she finished fifth in 1A.

During her stellar run, her only Wolf teammate (for a time) was older brother Austin, also a state meet veteran.

Since CHS doesn’t have a golf program, Fields trains and travels with South Whidbey. She reps the red and black in matches, however, with her scores counting as a one-woman Wolf wrecking crew.

That means she’ll still be competing against 1A/2A Cascade Conference athletes this year and not jumping over to the 1A Olympic League like other Coupeville athletes.

As she prepares for another bid at a state title, her thoughts:

I am very excited for my upcoming fourth and final season of golf.

I have worked extremely hard to get to the level of play I am at, and have not gotten to where I am at alone; I have a lot of people to thank.

First and foremost, my dad (pro golfer Mike Fields), who happens to be my coach.

The beginning of this season will be different and difficult for myself since he is still in California working until the end of April or beginning of May, so he will be around for the end of my season just before post season events start (the ones that really count.)

I, as usual, hope to make it through all post season tournaments, giving myself a chance to place well at the state tournament for what will be my fourth time.

I have yet to make a decision on what school I will be at next year; I am close though!

But playing for a university is still in the cards.

Also coach Sage, the SW girls coach, for allowing me to feel the past three years and this year already as part of their team.

My main goal this season is to do well obviously and play at the level that is my best game yet.

But more this year than any other I just want to enjoy every part of it and have a lot of fun!

Nothing is set in stone.

With that said, here’s a peek at what we, kinda, sorta, think might (possibly) be the spring sports schedules for Coupeville High School and its five athletic teams (plus lone Wolf golfer Christine Fields, who practices and travels with South Whidbey.)

And yes, the first day of practice (Monday, March 2) is just five days away, with games set to start about two weeks later, but don’t expect the schedules to be 100% all there.

What we’re currently seeing is 17 games for softball and 19 for baseball, and both squads can go 20 games, so it’s possible deals are still being worked out.

And boys’ soccer? There’s currently a four-week stretch between Mar. 25 and Apr. 23 where the Wolves have exactly ONE GAME scheduled.

As always in recent years, what might seem a misprint is not — CHS track will spend its entire season on the road, as the school’s track oval awaits an upgrade.

So, keeping all of that in mind (and also realizing that spring, with potential rain, is the trickiest of all seasons in which to keep a schedule intact), here’s what we know as of this morning:

Lone Wolf aces All-Conference honors!!

Posted in Golf, tagged , , , on June 2, 2014| Leave a Comment »

another birdie for me!!"

“First Team All-Conference, baby!!”

Was there any doubt?

After crushing foes left and right in the regular season, then romping to a 5th place finish at the 1A state girls’ golf tournament, Coupeville High School junior Christine Fields was a lock to notch another All-Conference honor.

And so it came to pass, as Cascade Conference coaches tabbed her as a First Team selection, where she joined a pair of duffers apiece from King’s and South Whidbey.

Cedarcrest was the only 2A school to have a First Team pick, as 1A schools grabbed five of the six slots.

Fields was joined on the First Team by Rosie Portillo and Tara Moore of South Whidbey, Hannah Roh and Charis Tsai of King’s and Amanda Fairbanks of Cedarcrest.

Simonette Sanchez of King’s was picked as the coach of the year.

Top five for Fields!!

Christine Fields, certified superstar.

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.
