LCC golfers qualify for State

NORFOLK — The LCC Bears girls golf team is headed back to State.

The LCC golfers earned a District C2-3 runner-up finish in action here Monday to qualify for next week’s State event. West Point Beemer won the team title.

The Lady Bears were led on the day by junior Sarah Karnes. Karnes started the day with a 43, and finished with a 47 for a teamleading 90.

Delaney Hall also fared well, carding a 98 on the day. She was followed by Hope Swanson, who earned a 107. Maddy Graham’s 115 rounded out the scoring for the Laurel-Concord-Coleridge squad.

“They were hungry and wanted to get back to state after getting there last year,” Laurel-Concord-Coleridge coach Christina Patefield said. “They have worked hard all summer and all season.

Karnes’ 90 wasn’t only good enough to lead her team, but it was also one of the best rounds of the day, trailing only West Point Beemer medalist Brook Diekemper, who fired an 82. The State Tourney will be played next week in Columbus.
