Mercer Island girls golf saw all six of its district qualifiers advance to the state tournament from the 3A Sea-King district meet, which took place Monday, May 18 at West Seattle Golf Course.

With the top 27 golfers moving on, Rachel Fujitani was the Islanders’ top finisher, placing third with a scorecard of 80 strokes. Abby Zhong shot an 87 to tie for eighth place with Lake Washington’s Emily Bunnell. Estey Chen and Kate Peterson both shot a 90 to place 13th, while Madelyn Quickstad shot a 95 to tie for 18th and Ella Warburg shot a 97 to tie for 23rd.

Ingraham’s Sarah Rhee won the 3A district title, finishing the course in 75 strokes.

Mercer Island coach Tim Okamura was amazed to see all six Islanders qualify. He said as far as he knew, it was the first time all Islander girls golf district competitors made the state cut.

“This is incredible, it just doesn’t happen,” Okamura said. “This team is one of the deepest teams we’ve ever had.”

The 3A girls golf state tournament will take place May 27-28 at Horn Rapids Golf Course in Richland.
