LEE AND INGRAM CAPTURE
TITLES AT ROSE BOWL JUNIOR CLASSIC

Pasadena, Calif. – Junior Amateur Golf Scholars, a non-profit organization hosted the 2003 Rose Bowl Junior Classic on December 29-30, 2003.   

On a cold and windy Monday under a threat of rain, 48 boys and girls set out to conquer the CW Koiner “big” course at Brookside in Pasadena while bands tuned up and others participating in the Rose Bowl festivities practiced and looked on. 

In the Boys 15-18 division, JAGS newcomer Albert Lee of Los Angeles, CA ignored the harsh conditions and fired a one over 73 to take a slim 1 shot lead over his nearest competitors Micah Burke of Los Angeles, CA and Dane Jensen of Pleasant Grove, Utah.  Five back with 78s were Bradley Wyatt of La Verne, Andy Kim of Laguna Niguel and Christopher Heneley of Altadena, CA.  Nick Baratelle of Cypress, CA and Jeff White of Duarte, CA shot 79 to round out those players breaking 80 in the first round.  Round two began with a weather forecast of 3 to 4 inches of rain that thankfully never materialized.  It did remain cool and breezy throughout the round.  Lee started slowly and was 6 over at the turn while Burke was only 2 over and led Lee by 3 shots in the tournament!  Dane remained 1 back of Lee at the turn.  Baratelle and Heneley also picked up strokes on the leader and at the end of 27 holes, 6 players were within two strokes of each other.   Lee played the back 9 at 1 under to finish the day at 77 for a total of 150.  Lee bested Baratelle by 4 who finished in 2^nd at 154.  Burke and Heneley both finished at 155 tied for 3^rd.  Jason D’Amore was 5^th at 156.  Wyatt finished 6^th at 157.  Jeremy Harris of El Dorado Hills, CA was 7^th while Jensen and Kim finished 8^th and 9^th respectively.  Christopher John Ancheta of Lancaster, CA was 10^th.

In the Girls division, Kristin Ingram of Pasadena, CA defended her title from 2002 Rose Bowl Junior Classic as she overcame the cold windy conditions and shivered into 1^st place for day one with a fine 83 on the demanding Brookside course.  Alyson Golditch of Northridge, CA, was second, six shots back and Allison Wing of Irvine, CA in third.  Day two saw Ingram off to a jittery start and was 5 over for the day after three holes.  She quickly refocused on her game and played the next 15 holes 1 under par finishing with the low round of the day at 79 for a total of 162 for 1^st place.  Golditch finished in a tie for 2^nd with  Keaton Kim of Buena Park, CA and Wing was 4^th.  Fifth place went to Kristin Medlin of Garden Grove, CA and sixth was captured by Stephanie Hu of Cerritos, CA. Kayleigh Horn of Newport Beach, CA finished 7^th and Marissa Patterson of San Clemente, CA was 8^th.  Tara Hale of Bell Canyon, CA finished in the top 10 at 9^th. 

The 13-14 Boys division, playing from the middle tees, saw newcomer James Moseley of Arcadia, CA. one week away from his 15^th birthday, ran away from the field with a first round 76.  Five shots back were Bodin Bhanaraksa of Chino, CA and Brett Robertson of Tustin, CA.  Moseley continued his steady play on day two and finished at 153 in 1^st.  Bodin took 2^nd and Adrian Guy of Pasadena, CA was 3^rd.  Michael Sato of Aiea, HI took 4^th.  Eric Brokop, Cypress, CA and  Robertson finished tied for 5^th.  Aaron Smith of Westlake Village, CA was 7^th.  Mason Davis of Ewa Beach, HI was 8^th followed by Miles Thorson of Westlake Village, CA and Kevin Lim of La Canada, CA at 9^th and 10^th respectively.
