			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p id="yui_3_2_0_9_1336592623565631">It has been a great spring! It also has been fun to see our Golf Team work at getting better every day! The season has flown by and culminated with the JV district tournament (hosted at Quail Valley Golf Course in Banks, Oregon) and the Varsity district tournament (hosted at OGA Golf Course in Woodburn, Oregon). The Golf program has taken great strides, and the coaching staff is working hard to put “Lion Pride” into our golf program. Two of our Juniors, Mikey and Ryan, both came up just short of making the state tournament, but they both made 2nd Team all District. Congratulations Team &#8211; we are so proud of you!!!</p>
