Wasilla player posts top score

ANCHORAGE - Twelve-year-old Rynae Baca shot a three-day total of 245 to post the lowest gross score in the Alaska State Amateur Handicap Championship this weekend.

Baca, the reigning Alaska Junior Golf champion, shot a 75 at Anchorage Golf Course on Sunday, five strokes below Cecilia Hopper's 80.

Although Hopper finished with a 248, a score three strokes higher than Baca's 245, Hopper earned the title with a net score of 204.

In this tournament, a player's handicap is factored into the final score.

On Saturday, Baca shot an 84 on the Moose Run creek course, and finished with an 86 Friday at Settlers Bay.

On the men's side, Greg Sanders finished with a three-day gross low of 206. But Michael Brogan was awarded the championship with a net total of 202. Brogan's gross was 266.
