Stockdale, which finished second at the May 19 CIF Central Section Tournament to advance as a full six-man team, was eighth in the team standings at 21-over par.
Only the top three teams advance to the June 3 CIF State Championships at Poppy Hills, which is at Pebble Beach. Whittier La Serna was the team winner at 8-under par. San Diego's Torrey Pines was second at 5-under-par and Santa Margarita was 3-under to finish third.
The competition for one of nine individual qualifying spots from a non-qualifying team was very difficult. The individual winner was Brady McHenry of Ventura Buena, who shot a 7-under-par 67. He won the competition on a four-hole playoff over La Serna's Hill Wang.
"It was a very tough day for us," first-year Stockdale coach Dheer Patel said. "The field was filled with Division I commits and the competition was not easy at all."

Among the local individuals, Liberty High's Ty Weaver carded a 1-under-par 73, which was three shots off the score for the final state qualifying spot. Patriots teammate Stanley Cohen was next with an even-par 74. Garces' Carson Sorci shot a 3-over-par 77.
Stockdale's golfers, who were eligible to qualify for the state tournament as an individual, had a tough day overall.
Manik Anand was the Mustangs' low individual with a 1-over-par 75. Camilo Del Rosario was next at 76. Carrick Hentges shot 77. Jacob Roldan, who had a 64 to lead all golfers at the Central Section tournament, had an 81 on Thursday. Andrew Starr was the Mustangs' No. 5 golfer at 82.
"We started the season talking about our goals as a team," Patel said. "We wanted to win league, win valley (they were runner-up) and to never quit on our shots. I'm really proud of the players."

Celtics trade pitch finds ideal Kristaps Porzingis replacement by moving Simons
The Boston Celtics are still looking for ways to shed salary, and that could come in a few different ways. If Brad Stevens could also do that in a way to improve the rest of his roster, it's possible that things could look great for the Celtics in the short and long term. When recently looking for a few trade ideas around for Anfernee Simons, Matt Moore of FanSided proposed a few intriguing ones. Perhaps his most intriguing, however, was a deal with the Chicago Bulls for Nikola Vucevic and Ayo Dosunmu. MORE: Boston Celtics get: Nikola Vucevic, Ayo Dosunmu Chicago Bulls get: Anfernee Simons, Xavier Tillman 'The Bulls have a logjam of guards, so adding Simons is a little curious. But think of this way. In adding Simons, they can leverage him against Coby White, who is also on an expiring deal. The player who comes out on top gets extended. 'That, along with the Giddey extension, sets their direction for the long-term in the backcourt while Matas Buzelis develops... The Celtics shave off another $1.4 million off their cap space, while continuing to clean the books for 2026, and add a dogged defender in Dosunmu who fits their system better than Simons. Think of what Dosunmu will learn as Derrick White's understudy,' he wrote. Vucevic would be an interesting piece for the Celtics, as he has a somewhat similar skill set to Kristaps Porzingis. While Porzingis is much better, and tough to disagree with, Vucevic can also make shots from beyond the arc, so in that sense, they have some similarities. Dosunmu could also be a decent piece, and perhaps someone who could run the second unit, depending on what the Celtics want to do.

Report: Packers RB Emanuel Wilson avoids serious knee injury
Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson avoided a serious knee injury at Friday's practice and shouldn't miss much time, according to reporting from Bill Huber of Wilson, the team's backup running back behind Josh Jacobs last season, went down awkwardly while attempting to catch a pass during a team period on Friday. Despite initial concerns of a major injury, it appears Wilson avoided a worst-case scenario and will eventually return during training camp. Huber described the injury as a "tweak" and reported there is "no damage" inside the knee. The Packers are already without running back MarShawn Lloyd, who injured his groin during the team's first padded practice of the week and is expected to miss time into next week. Wilson rushed 103 times for 502 yards and four touchdowns and caught 11 passes for 48 yards and another touchdown across 17 games last season. The Packers also have veteran Chris Brooks, rookies Jalen White and Amir Johnson and recent addition Israel Abanikanda at running back behind Jacobs entering the team's Family Night practice at Lambeau Field on Saturday. The Packers open the preseason next Saturday at Lambeau Field against the New York Jets. This article originally appeared on Packers Wire: Report: Packers RB Emanuel Wilson avoids serious knee injury
