The Jesuit High School Sacramento’s golf team has finished a very successful regular season, accumulating an overall record of 10-3-1. With these accomplishments as preparation, the team worked hard to get ready for the postseason. In the first round of sections, Jesuit placed second place. As a result, they gained a spot in the next round at the San Joaquin Section Masters.

Leading the team out on the course, Captain Luke Dariotis ’25 is very hopeful that the golf team goes far in the playoffs. After ending the season with a first place win in the last center match of the year, Luke and the team will try to keep the streak going in the postseason.

“I feel good going into the playoffs,” Luke said. “The team has been playing well and we have been gaining some momentum, so hopefully we can keep that momentum going for the playoffs.”

Luke also appreciates the effort the whole team has been putting in for the entire season, and attributes much of the success the team has seen to that preparation and work ethic.

“The hard work we’ve put in the past few months gives me the confidence that our team can go far,” Luke said.

While the golf team is full of skilled players willing to work hard, there are other highschools working just as hard preparing for the postseason. Jesuit fell just short to one of these teams, Granite Bay High School, during the first round last Tuesday. Kees Hoogendyk ’27 recognizes that the Jesuit team will have to work hard and overcome these teams. 

“Our team has been working really hard over the past few weeks to get ready for the playoffs and beat these teams,” Kees said.

Monday, March 12 marks the second round of the Sierra Foothill League playoffs, where Jesuit golfers hope their hard work will pay off and earn them a spot in the NorCal tournament.
