A SEASON TO REMEMBER
WOMEN’S GOLF 2007
How do you begin a recap of such an outstanding season, the best in CVCA history? Let’s start with some history. Since 1998, the first year of women’s golf, the most wins by any team was 11 and no team finished better than .500. This year’s team was 17-4!!! In recent years, the 05 team average per match was 226, in 06 it was 212 and this year it was 200–with 11 matches under 200, a feat only accomplished once in the last 4 years.
Several of the girls had outstanding rounds that lead the team to victories. Senior Brittany Sommers had a life-low of 43 against Cuyahoga Falls, senior Hannah Sturm had a 53 vs Stow, senior Farrah Michael had a 49 vs Firestone, junior Julia Rothenbuhler had a 46 vs Stow and junior Sarah Terril had a 45 against Strasburgh. Junior Alyssa Presley shot a 43 vs. Mayfield. Other team members who were able to play in several matches were senior Jessica Darusz, junior Shelby Mitchell, and sophomore Margaret Burton.
It truly was a joy to coach these girls this year; not only because of the wins and losses but the Christian character they displayed. Win or lose they supported one another, never pointed fingers for a high score, had a joyful spirit and verbally gave God the glory when good things happened. Thank you girls for a great season! We at CVCA are very proud of you.
Coach, Don Zinn
