Hazen Girls Golf just concluded our 2 day League Tournament at Gold Mountain in Bremerton.  Hazen came in 1st place in the Tournament by a whopping 38 strokes over Enumclaw, the other 10-0 team in the NPSL. We had a 2 day total of 650 strokes.  To understand how incredible that was, last year at the 4A State tournament in Spokane, Redmond HS was the State Champions with a 2 day total of 675. 4 of our Girls had their all-time best scores in League play.  Bailey Lengfelder shot a 72,  Lucy Villasenor shot a 75,  Kaelan Lestock shot a 81 (and a 83), and Dominik Datangel shot an 85. Hazen girls now should have 2 banners.  One for 2019 NPSL League Champions. The other for 2019 NPSL League Tournament Champions. 

Hazen Girls Swim came incredibly close to winning their meet last night against Mount Rainier. Great effort ladies! Congratulations to Shay Sanders and Jasmine Nguyen on making their League cuts! Our last meet is Thursday against Kennedy Catholic in Tukwila. If you see a swimmer, wish them good luck!

Boys Golf  Congratulation to Nick Dean who advanced to the District meet in May after a two day League Tournament Qualifier at Gold Mountain Golf Course.

Fall Athletes The 2nd grade check for the season will be done on Monday morning October 21st.  This is the time to get all your assignments turned in, and if you need help to increase your grade,  get it now!!  Once the grade report is run,  if you are NOT passing 4 out of 5 classes or your GPA is below a 2.0  you will sit out all of next week and placed on academic probation.  Don’t let that happen.  Most important,  get those assignments turned in,  they cannot be graded if the teacher doesn’t have them.
