When it comes to a postseason debut, it doesn’t get much better than what Hu did at the North Coast Section Div. I Golf Championships atPeacock Gap Golf Club on Oct. 28.
Two weeks after shooting 2-under at the Diablo Foothill Athletic League Championships, Hu tied for medalist honors with a 3-under par 68 which propelled Dougherty Valley to its first NCS golf title. The Wildcats victory was a convincing one as well. Their five-golfer score of 390 was eight strokes better than second-place Amador Valley. Helping that scoring gap were Hu’s teammates Yoonhee Kim (3-over 75) and Siobban Sher (79)
Hu had had never played the San Rafael course before.
IN HER OWN WORDS: “I was most proud of my final hole of the day,” Hu said of her birdie on the 121-yard, Hole No. 3. It was her finishing hole since she began the day on Hole No. 4, as part of the shotgun start. “I hit a 7-iron off the tee and left it about five feet from the cup.”
IN HER COACH’S WORDS: “Nothing gets to her,” Wildcats assistant coach Micalann Cowan said.
