GREAT SHOWING FOR LBHS SURF AT INDIVIDUAL LEAGUE FINALS WITH MULTIPLE FINALISTS
The Individual High School League surfing Finals were held at Upper Trestles last Wednesday and Thursday. The Laguna Beach High School Surf Team did very well being represented in every Division Final. The event saw the top kids from Laguna up against San Clemente, Dana Hills and Newport Harbor going for individual honors.
Both days of competition were quite chilly, but had fun 2-3ft rights and lefts that provided some outstanding memorable performances throughout the competition. The Laguna girls shinned as they have all year with Kayla Coscino looking really solid in both Girls Shortboard and Longboard and scoring rides in the excellent range. She finished runner-up in both the Divisions. Meanwhile Claire Kelly in Longboard and Tess Booth in Shortboard surfed very well to take 3rd overall. Jameson Roller did well with some nice noserides in Longboard to finish in 5th and Travis Booth was the Iron man competing in all 3 divisions over the two days. Travis took a 4th in Bodyboard and just was edged out in the Longboard missing the final by less then a point. He came back super strong in the Boys shortboard with standout performances, going all the way to the final to finish 6th overall.
Along with Travis, the rest of our Boys Shortboard was very strong throughout the day with most of the boys advancing through several rounds. We had 8 boys go into the quarters, four boys making it to the Semi-Finals and two to the Finals. Kiko Nelsen was a standout and had a number of strong rides all day to cap off he great season. He pulled off a very nice air reverse and was looking like he could take the win. In the end he finished a very impressive 2nd overall, which is the highest finish in this event ever for the Laguna boys! Meanwhile Jeremy Shutts and Jake Levin surfed well just missing the Final. We also saw some good performances put in by Trey and Tyson Lockhart, Jett North and Liam McCue. Andrew Shutts also did well making the Bodyboard Final, but opted out as he was not feeling too well.
