from the IVPress:
Holtville High’s Benji Angulo wanted to be the best golfer in Imperial Valley League this season — he dominated, winning five of six league matches to be named the All-Imperial Valley Press boys’ golf Player of the Year.
Player of the Year
Benji Angulo, Holtville High
The 18-year-old senior had one goal of being the best this season and finished his high school career as just that — the best.
Out of six Imperial Valley League matches, Angulo won the medalist honor five times and was named the IVL medalist.
“I wish I could have gotten a scholarship to keep playing but I still accomplished one of my goals so I’m still satisfied,” Angulo said of his season.
He made the CIF-San Diego Section playoffs as an individual where he made the cut to the second day.
“I played rather well. I was kind of happy with my play,” Angulo said of the CIF tournament.
Angulo, who also played football with the Vikings, will study kinesiology at San Diego Mesa College in La Mesa.
“I wanna study sports medicine since I like sports so much,” Angulo said.
He will not play golf or any other sport with Mesa, but instead play in amateur golf tournaments while in college.
Until then, he will practice during the summer.
“It’s two summers where I’ve played almost every day,” Angulo said. “It’s my favorite sport.”
