After shooting a record score of 67 at Gearhart Golf Links a year ago, the senior outdid himself on Monday during his demolition play at the Astoria Golf and Country Club. Quang shot a bogey-free 66, to win the Seaside Invitational by nine strokes. The six-under-par round became the new standard for Seaside High School and Quang.
This round also beat the one shot by Damian Telles back in 2009. Telles, who played professional golf for a few seasons, had seen his tournament record stand for 17 years before it got beaten by Seaside’s senior star on Monday. In addition to Quang, the Seaside boys saw stellar performances across the board.
The Seagulls shot a season low 317 to finish second behind Camas High School of Washington. Camas put on a clinic as they shot a 304 to hoist the first place trophy. Camas had all five of their players score in the 70s, with the highest score being a 78.
The Seaside boys finished second, Banks came home third, Grant was fourth and Cowapa League teams St. Helens, Tillamook, Astoria and Scappoose finished fifth, ninth, 11th and 13th, respectively. Astoria shot a very solid score of 363.
