PREP ROUNDUP:

The Marina High boys’ golf team can go down in history after the Vikings captured the CIF Southern Section Central team divisional title May 11 at Lakewood Country Club.

It’s the first time Marina boys’ golf has won a CIF title, Coach Jim Morris said.

“It’s pretty amazing,” he said. “I knew we had a good chance.”

As a team, Marina shot 372 and beat Mira Costa by a single stroke to claim the title. Individually, the Vikings were led by senior Jem Young (even-par 72), senior Kenny Gibo, junior Jeff Fuzzard and sophomore Kyle Frame (all shot 73), sophomore Andrew Shoup (80) and senior Mike Squillace (81).During the regular season, Marina finished third behind champion Los Alamitos and second-place Newport Harbor in the Sunset League race.

The Vikings then competed in the CIF Team finals May 14 at Rancho San Marcos Golf Course in Santa Barbara. Morris said his team placed 19th out of 21 teams, led by Fuzzard with a 77.

“It’s a tough course, and it was our guys’ first time playing it,” Morris said.

Jem Young is still alive in the CIF individuals after he shot a 74 Monday at the CIF individuals Southern Regional, held at Skylinks Golf Course in Long Beach. He birdied the first playoff hole to advance, while Fuzzard (who also shot 74) came up just short.

Young will play again Tuesday at the boys’ Individual Championships, held at Hacienda Golf Club in La Habra Heights.
