Peninsula golfer Jenny Coleman won a CIF Southern Section qualifier, and Torrance qualified its five top golfers to Thursday's CIF Southern Section finals.

Coleman shot a 3-under-par 69 at Soule Golf Course in Ojai, leading a group of 11 South Bay qualifiers for Thursday's CIF Southern Section finals at Mountain Meadows Golf Course in Pomona.

Coleman, who shot a 1-over on the front nine, had three birdies and an eagle on the back nine.

"She keeps rolling right along," Peninsula coach Bob Wilton said. "Her concentration is fabulous. Nothing bothers her, and she hits a lot of greens."

Demi Runas led Torrance with a 71 for second place.

Torrance freshman Samantha Martin shot a 73 for fifth place. Chae Won Park (75), Rochelle Chan (78) and Michele Chun (79) also qualfied for Torrance.

Other local qualifiers included Peninsula's Kristin Coleman (74),  Katia Joo (75) and Ayane Itamura (80) and  Mira Costa's Lori Harper (79) and Lauren Heavrin (80).
