"I was extremely happy with how the scores finished out for us," said Wayne High coach Josh Johnson. "All three girls did some good things throughout the day. Each girl had some "leaky" holes that we need to clean up but overall I was very pleased. I am super happy for Rylynn who shot her personal best and earned herself a medal in a very deep field."
Both LCC and Tri County Northeast will next compete in the Stanton Invite on September 4 from Elkhorn Acres Golf Course.
