11/4: Golfers finish second at conference finals
The Saddleback women's golf team placed second out of five teams at the Orange Empire Conference finals held Monday and Wednesday at the El Prado course. The second place finish automatically qualifies the Gauchos for the Southern California Regional championship which is scheduled for Monday and Tuesday, November 9-10, at the Los Serranos course.
 Linda Edelstein shot a 36-hole total of 162 (85-77) to lead the Gauchos to a two-day team total of 683. Santiago Canyon won the event on its home course with a 636 while Santa Ana was a distant third at 757. Brittany Schlachter carded a 171 (84-87) and Mikka Chen added a 175 (84-91) for the Gauchos.
Edelstein and Schlachter each earned all-conference recognition this season while head coach Gary Sabella was named as one of the conference's co-coaches of the year. Edelstein averaged 82.5 strokes per round in conference while Schlachter averaged 84.8 strokes per round.
The Gauchos return to the regional playoffs this season after missing the regionals last year. It marks the 10th time in the past 11 seasons that Saddleback has qualified for the regional championship tournament.
