Coupeville High School has only one golfer, senior Christine Fields, but she is among the state’s best.

Fields placed fifth in the state 1A tournament last spring, the best finish ever by a CHS golfer.

She also qualified for state the previous two years, nabbing eighth as a freshman and 15th as a sophomore.

In addition to her state efforts, Fields holds three top-10 finishes at district and three top-seven finishes at tri-district.

After being named to the all-Cascade Conference second team as a freshman, she picked up first-team honors the past two seasons.

“Since it is my last season, I am looking to push myself harder than any other year,” Fields said. “I believe the skill level I am at is at its highest yet. I will strive to make first-team all-conference, place in top spots at districts and bi-districts, giving myself a good chance to do well at state.”

Her goals during the regular season, she said, are to work on the consistency of her game and, specifically, work on her short game.

“More than anything, I want to enjoy every part that comes with this final season,” Fields said.

Fields practices with the South Whidbey High School team at the Useless Bay Golf and Country Club and follows the Falcons’ schedule.

The first match is against Cedarcrest at 3 p.m. Thursday, March 19, at Useless Bay.
