Here is a look at some of the week’s top high school sports events.
Led by medalist Brett Sodetz, Coronado shot a total of 7-under-par 569 as a team, setting a state record for a 36-hole tournament. It was more than enough to give the Cougars their fourth straight title at the Sunrise Region tournament at Paiute on Wednesday.
