When a player hits a hole in one, it’s going to be a good day.
South Salem High School sophomore Ashley Zhu, playing at No. 1 for the first time, hit a hole in one on her way to a scoring 70 at Santiam Golf Club to become the medalist at Saturday’s SAY Golf Tournament.
South Salem’s Ashley Zhu was voted as the athlete of the week.
She was selected as the athlete of the week by a Facebook vote of Statesman Journal readers.
As a freshman last season, Zhu placed third in the Greater Valley Conference with a 36-hole score of 162 and placed 30th at the OSAA Class 6A state tournament with a score of 168.
Zhu, and the other the athletes of the week from the school year, will be honored during the first Mid-Valley Sports Awards show on June 7 at the Salem Convention Center.
