SEASON KICKS OFF WITH A BANG!!!!
What a busy and exciting first weekend of the season! We are so proud of the performances the girls turned in against some very strong tournament fields. First, on Saturday in the Lady Rocket Classic (Shelby Co.HS) @ Weissinger Hills we finished with a team total of 367...good for a tie for 7th place out of 19 teams. We were led by Sarah Son's 84 and Carly Clements' 90 on a tough course setup. Then today, at the LadyCat Invitational (Henry Co.HS) @ Henry Co. Country Club, the girls topped Saturday's effort with a team total 362 (5th place out of 12 teams). Sarah and Abby Stivers led the team with fantastic scores of 81 & 82 on their home course.

A few success stories to point out about this weekend's events that make it even more impressive to us as coaches--
#1-We beat our best 18-hole team score (410) from last year by 43 and 48 strokes over the two days. #2-Today, we beat last years LadyCat Invit. score by 56 strokes! #3-Sarah's 81 and Abby's 82 today were career low scores for their high school career! #4 On Saturday, Delaney Wilson shot her lowest 18-hole tourney score ever (99). #5-Sarah Son was named to the all-tourney team today for her 81 (10 lowest indiv. scores) and Abby just missed being joining her for All-Tourney honors by 1 stroke.

As a team we were solid from top-to-bottom and the consistency we got from our first 3 players in both events really turned some heads. The sky is the limit for this team and we are starting to see the fruits of our labors. It is truly shaping up to be an exciting season for the 2013 Lady Centurion Golf Team! Way to go girls! We are very proud of you!

CAL GIRLS GOLF UPDATE: VICTORIOUS AGAIN!!!!
As the season winds down to an end, the girls are continuing their winning ways with 2 more match victories this week. Here are the details for those who didn't see Coach Tom's email updates last night and Tuesday night.

Thurs, Sept 13 @ Hidden Creek Golf Club
CAL (180) defeats PRESENTATION (192)...CAL now 11-0-1!
We returned to one of our favorite courses yesterday for the match against Pres and came away with another big win after finishing in a tie for 3rd with them in Monday's Jeff. Co. Girls Invitational. CAL started off on fire and kept up the heat for the entire round. Abby Stivers shot a career best 38 for our team low score, playing the course at even par thru the first seven holes. Sarah Son's stellar 42 added fuel to the fire and included 3 pars in a row capped by a birdie on the par 5 ninth hole. Carly Clements' 46, despite an injury, was crucial in insuring the win. Delaney Wilson continued her strong play with a 54, rebounding nicely after a rough start on holes 1 & 2.

Tuesday, Sept 11 Shawnee Golf Course
CAL (193) defeats MANUAL (221) to get our 10th win!
One of the more fun matches of the season playing against the super-friendly girls from Manual, but despite the fun, CAL was all business in guarding our undefeated record. Once again, we posted 3 scores in the 40's to seal the win...led by Abby Stivers/44, Sarah Son/46, and Carly Clements/48. Emily Neat returned to form with a solid 55. Game ball of the day though went to sophomore McKenzie Robinson, who played in her first varsity match. Congrats CAL and congratulations Kenzie!

This team is peaking as we head into Sacred Heart's Bunny Daugherty Invitational at Hurstborne Country Club on Saturday. It appears to be a very strong field and we are looking forward to the challenge as we prepare for Regionals on the 24th. Just one more match remains (Tues. vs KCD) in the season. Good luck girls!

3rd PLACE FINISH in JEFFERSON COUNTY INVITATIONAL!!!!
The girls kept up the great play yesterday and posted a 186 (our newest low total) to claim a tie for 3rd place in the JCI, competing against a field of 12 Metro Louisville girls teams. We had 4 girls shoot in the 40's and narrowly missed 2nd place by 2 strokes! A tremendous showing in one of the more important events we play in. We were led in scoring by Sarah Son's 45. Delaney Wilson "brought it" yesterday and posted a career low 46, followed by Carly with a 47 and Erika with a 48. It was a great team effort and it was neat to see people looking at the final scoreboard and noticing CAL up there at the top. I even overheard several remarks from coaches and spectators commenting on on our strong finish and the balanced scores we posted, by far the post consistent team score in the tournament. CONGRATULATIONS on a great tourney and for "turning heads!"...let's ride this momentum right into regionals!

ANOTHER BIG CAL GOLF DAY! The girls travelled to Hidden Creek today to play in the Christian Academy of Indiana Invitational and brought home a bunch of hardware! It was a tough day at times on a waterlogged course that played long and very difficult, but our girls persevered and ended up winning FIRST PLACE TEAM! It was a smaller field than most events, but the competition was still quite tough. Abby led the way with overall 2nd Place Individual (93), Sarah placed 3rd with a 94, Carly 5th with a 104, and Emily 10th place with a 122. So proud of the way everyone played through the rough stretches and finished strong. Way to go girls! You should all be very proud and excited to contribute the first golf trophy to the CAL trophy case in at least 5 years! Let's build on this and bring our best effort to the Jefferson County Invitational on Monday and show the folks on this side of the river that CAL GOLF IS ON THE RISE!!!!!
