The Voice of the Lions says...


Here is what our varsity sports teams have done since we last blogged and a season wrap-up for some sports.

Boys Varsity Golf

Regular season Division 1 record- 30-12 (90 pts.) 3rd place

                    
Golf had 4 players qualify for the York/Adams County Championships:
Brandon Stine (76.5 average)- grade 12
Mike Renga - ( 84.7) grade 12
James Caskey - (84) grade 11
Kevin Crumbling - (80.3) grade 9

Brandon Stine placed 4th and Kevin Crumbling placed 10th and earned spots in the District 3 Golf Championships.  Both players advanced to the final round of the championship, with Brandon earning 16th place and an invitation to the Eastern Regional State Championship.  In the Eastern Regional Championship, Brandon shot 83 and missed an invitation to the State Championships by only 4 strokes.

Red Lion Golf has its best years ahead as there are many up and coming young, talented, and hard-working players in the program.

Here is a quote from our head coach:
“Our girls played hard and had a successful season, despite the scores.  Each player improved her game and had a lot of fun with her teammates.
For next year we'll really need to recruit and rebuild our team. Everyone is welcome to come out and try tennis, as there are no cuts.
I know we'll have another fun season, but we'll need more players to fill up our roster, which means there are varsity positions open to those who work hard.
If interested, please come out to our spring tennis meeting and play-day event. Dates to be announced!
This is a great time full of great girls! Come out and join in on the fun while playing a lifetime sport!
