Yesterday, the Female All-County banquet for spring sports took place and for the 8th season in a row our program had 1 or more players selected. Congratulations to Kaylee for making the All-County team for the 3rd consecutive season. We are so proud to have you representing us! Here is a snapshot of the incredible season she had!

Kaylee put together a great tournament in some tough conditions today. For her first time and as one of the youngest players in the field she posted a solid top 10 finish in one of the strongest, if not the strongest division in high school golf! The future is very bright for our freshman and we can't wait to see how far this game takes her!

Kaylee put her best round of the year together at the perfect time today. After round 1 she sits tied for 4th and only one shot back of 2nd place.

Good luck today at State Kaylee. We are all rooting for you!
