All week rain was in the forecast for Saturday. By setup time 6am Saturday morning, we had 18 minutes of rain then no rain and no wind with sunshine all day long! Medium tide all day (the best for San Clemente Pier). In the water there was a south swell sometimes cresting slightly overhead. The southwest swell was waist to chest high, creating plenty of waves for the competitors. Nail biter match of the day; Crean Lutheran vs Santa Margarita. With everyone having surfed except the bodyboarders Santa Margarita was holding the lead, 41 – 40. It was up to the bodyboard heat deciding who would win the match. Lucas Colon, Crean Lutheran was the hero placing 4th over his rival from Santa Margarita taking his team across the finish line with Crean Lutheran 44 taking the win over Santa Margarita 42. Congratulations to all the teams and to all the competitors.
