Tars rolling

RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA - Newport Harbor High’s girls golf team

swept to a virtually unbeatable 44-stroke lead after the first half of a

home-and-home nonleague engagement with Trabuco Hills Thursday, keyed by

sophomore medalists Kelly Hunt and Shelly Roberts, who both carded 44s on

the par-36 South Course at Coto de Caza.

Junior Emily McKay rounded out the scoring with a 48, while two others

in the Sailors’ pack stood out despite nonscoring efforts. Brianna Reehl

recorded a 47 and Lindsay Galbraith had a 56.

The Sailors will host Trabuco Hills Tuesday at Big Canyon at 2 p.m. to

complete the 18-hole duel.
