        Southern Cal Results

SBCC's Felix Mory and Blake McPherson took second and third in the CCCAA Southern Cal Men's Golf Championships on Monday at par-71 StoneRidge CC in Poway.

Mory fired a season-low 4-under 67 in the first round and added a 71 in the afternoon for a 138. McPherson shot 70 and 73 for a 1-over 143. Sidney Wolf of Canyons was the medalist, shooting two rounds of 3-under 68.

Mory, a freshman from France, and McPherson, a sophomore from Taft, both qualified for the State Championships, which will be held on May 12 at The Victoria Club in Riverside. They were named first-team All-Southern California, one week after receiving first-team All-WSC honors.

WSC champion Canyons topped the 10-team field with 723 strokes (13-over par). Riverside got the other State berth by finishing second at 738. Orange Coast (743) was third and the Vaqueros took fourth at 751. SBCC finishes with an 85-22-1 overall record.

"We played pretty good the first 18 and not so well in the second round," said SBCC coach Chuck Melendez. "It was a great day for Felix and Blake. I was proud of our effort all year, we just didn't get it done in the final round."
