GOLF

That's a pretty darn good 398, actually. That's the first time we've been to The Links, and that place is tough. There is trouble everywhere. That is a regional-level course. Plus, Emmi and Eliza were both battling through illness, and it was an extremely hot day. According to the slope and rating, it's the second hardest course we've played behind Bloomington Country Club, but the girls said The Links played harder. The 398 is probably 20 to 25 strokes better at home.

Emmi got off to a hot start, but I knew it would be difficult for her to maintain because of the sickness. She and Eliza really battled today. Many players would have called or texted me and said they wouldn't have been able to go today. I think they would have made me carry them off on a stretcher, although I would never let it get to that point.

Izzie is starting to point in the right direction, too. We tried to shorten her swing this week, which helped quite a bit. She's put in some short-game practice with Coach Detmer-Leary, and she holed out from about 25 yards on 18 for her first-ever birdie.

Aleigh's ball striking is really good right now, but it's not translating to her score. I've been around a little bit, and usually it's only a matter of time when somebody is hitting it that well before it starts to show up on the scorecard.

This team has the possibility to be the best group I've ever coached, and I think they are starting to realize their potential. We're at the halfway mark of the season already, and we're all eager to continue to grind.

BOYS SOCCER:

Shawe falls on the road at Jeffersonville 10-1.
