Carondelet-Concord Golfer Yealimi Noh is named our SportStar of the Week
One year after Top 10 finishes at both the CIF NorCal and State Tournaments — as a freshman — Noh shot to the top of the leaderboard.
At The Club at Crazy Horse Ranch in Salinas on Nov. 7, her 1-over par 71 put her in a three-golfer playoff that she needed just one hole to earn top NorCal Championship medalist honors.
Noh’s card included birdies on Hole No. 1 and No. 18, and an eagle on the 411-yard, par-5 Hole No. 9.
Her effort also helped the Cougars finish third as a team, qualifying them for the State Championship Tournament at Red Hill Country Club in Rancho Cucamonga on Nov. 15.
The top two teams at NorCals were St. Francis-Mountain View, which was led by Maya Pugatch (2-over 72), and Dougherty Valley-San Ramon, led by Jacqueline Ha (2-over 72).
