⛳️ Girls Golf Wins Division 3 State Championship!
Boys/Girls Varsity All TeamsA season that started out with a lot of optimism after last year's 5th place finish, ended this past Saturday at the MHSAA Division 3 State Finals with the CC Varsity Girls Golf Team winning the program's first State Championship! The win brings a 3rd Golf State Championship to CC in the last 3 seasons, following the boys team and their title runs in 2021 and 2023. The weather was less than desirable at The Meadows Golf Course at Grand Valley State University, but that did not hold back the team as they ended the first day of competition 18 strokes ahead of Williamston and last year's champion Macomb Lutheran North. As Head Coach Kim Napieralski noted after the weekend's competition: “The good news about this weather is I have mudders for players. They don’t care about the conditions as much as some other teams perhaps. It was hard to get through the puddles of water, but they just kept playing.”
