South Ripley Lady Raider golfers open
their '09 season with a fifth player

Last year's Lady Raider fall golf team season was played
with only a four member team, adding extra burdens on
the team as each game day came. Particularly because a
team score in a match requires a four person score total.
Without four scores, no team score could be counted in
the match.
Individual scores would count, but no chance to earn a
team placing.
That meant every scheduled game, every girl had to be
there and a high score could not be dropped at the end
of the round, nor the fifth players score determine a
winner in the case of a tie.
Proudly, this year's Lady Raiders have included a fifth
member to their squad, bringing a sigh of relief.
Coached once again by Greg Huntington, the Lady Raider
golf team includes: Lakin Davis, Hannah Carlock, Kaitlyn
Black, Jessica Osborne and a new member, Shannon Adkins.
The Lady Raider golfers compete next at Springhills, on
Thursday, August 13.
