The Eastlake Titans Boys Golf Team ended the 2015 spring golf season in very strong fashion, going undefeated in league play enroute to capturing its fourth consecutive Mesa League Boys Golf Title and finishing atop the entire Metro Conference. With most of the players having to balance out their hectic schedules - especially for some of the sophomores and juniors on the team (there are no seniors on this year's squad) who must find a way to balance their A.P./Honors course loads, volunteer commitments along with the demands bestowed upon a high school golfer - this season marked a remarkable display of a complete team effort led by competent coaching, sheer determination and hard work by the entire team to achieve the successful end result.
Some of this year's successes:
- Mesa League Championship Runner-Up: Matthew Modelo (11)
- Team Scoring Leader: Matthew Modelo (11)
- Mesa League Match Play Champion, Runner-Up and Third Place: Jacky Ahn (11), Matthew Modelo (11) & Jumpei Hanaoka (9)
- Eastlake Titans Making First Team Mesa League: Armando Castro (11), Matthew Modelo (11), Troy Nelson (11), Davis Harris (10)
- Eastlake Titans Representing School at CIF Golf Championship: Jacky Ahn (11), Armando Castro (11), Matthew Modelo (11), Troy Nelson (11), Jerome Nicdao (11), Davis Harris (10)
- Sole Eastlake Titan Advancing to Day 2 CIFs: Armando Castro (11)
The entire team had a great time competing this season and is already looking forward to next year. And, because the team carried no seniors this year, next year's team looks to be a force to be reckoned with. Finally, with some of the strong skills demonstrated by the freshman class, e.g. Jumpei Hanaoka, Cal Johnson, Sam Lee and Desi Rodelas, it certainly appears that Coach Barrett has a stable of strong players to keep the winning going for many more seasons to come.
