Lopez hosted interisland rival Friday Harbor on April 21, hoping the predicted wind and rain would hold off long enough for everyone to finish a round. The wind picked up as a large field from both teams teed off, but the Lobos golfers still turned in good scores. The Lopez girls all bested or equaled their lowest scores, and the boys also did well, winning the match. Alexandre Clouet again came away with top honors. Both teams had just managed to complete the course when the rain started coming down, mostly sideways.  The golfers then gathered in the Lopez Golf Course Clubhouse where they dried out and warmed up.  Rejuvenating hot chocolate and fortune cookies were served by “Momma Bear” Debbie Tetu, who also managed to play a few holes while shepherding her cubs through the gathering storm.

Lopez has two league matches before the Friday Harbor Invitational on May 8. The weather and the scores are sure to improve.
