Golfer gets home course advantage

For three years, Kallie Sakamoto’s home golf course has been just a few hundred yards south of Washougal High School (WHS). Orchard Hills Country Club is where she honed her skills with countless practice rounds after school and on weekends as a member of the Washougal High girls golf team. It also is where she put those skills to work competing against other schools during three full seasons as the top golfer at WHS.

Sakamoto said she was thrilled to learn the 2A district golf tournament was going to be held on a course she knows so well.
