Liz shoots an 81 on Day One of State!

Liz Carlson opened up her first round of the state finals in grand fashion in shooting a 3-over par 39 on her opening nine. However, Liz's back nine, which was the front nine on the score card was a little bit more of a roller coaster. Liz began that side with an uncharacteristic double bogey which included two chunked shots. Liz righted the ship though and ended up playing some good golf the rest of the way en route to a final tally of 81. Currently, Liz is sitting in a decent position, but only time will tell as the waiting game ensues. No matter what happens Liz has been an exceptional representative of the Fremont Lady Eagle golf program and Fremont schools. Great job Liz!!

Liz shoots an outstanding 74 in rainy day

Liz Carlson teed off at the Regional golf tournament at 9:45 a.m. on the Noble Hawk Golf Links Saturday morning. Her round was full of ups and some downs, but all in all Liz did what she had to do to get the ball in the hole and shoot an outstanding 74. Immediately after Liz signed her scorecard the rains began to pour. The concern became whether or not Liz's score would count. With some of the field still on the front nine, had play not resumed Liz would have had to play again on Monday. However, per the IHSAA, if half the field was able to complete their rounds then all of those scores would hold up. At 7:45 p.m. when darkness stopped play for good, 38 players out of the 72 were done. Obviously all parties involved breathed a sigh of relief that Liz's score held up. Play will resume at 1:00 p.m. on Monday afternoon, we can only hope that Liz's score is good enough and she will be playing in the IHSAA State Finals for a second straight year on Friday. Good job Liz and good luck!!!

The Lady Eagles have a good showing at Sectionals, Liz wins championship

The Lady Eagle golf team put together a good showing at the Angola Sectional on Saturday in finishing 4th place overall. Bishop Dwenger won the Sectional with a 357, while DeKalb and Concordia each also played well enough to make it to the Regional. Fremont, who was led by Sectional Champion Liz Carlson's 78, finished with a 391. The team struggled to find its rhythm on the front nine, but were very good on the back nine to end the season on a positive note. Alivia Behnfeldt came back from a tough front nine to shoot a 99, Joy Thompson also came back on the back to shoot 104, and Jessica Mofield shot a 110 to end her year well. Laura Dennis didn't shoot a good last round, but has to be applauded for her fine career at the Varsity level. Liz's round gives her her third regional berth in four years. Good job ladies and good luck Liz!!

Lady Eagles play well at NECC

The Lady Eagles traveled to Millersburg on Saturday morning to compete in the NECC Tournament at Timber Ridge Golf Club. The team knew it had a tough challenge ahead of themselves in the likes of Fairfield and Angola. Fairfield proved to be a challenge, however, Angola was not as they were beaten by the Eagles by twenty strokes. Fairfield won the tournament with a 341 as they look primed for a deep state tournament run. Fremont was second with a 397, Angola was third with 417. The highlight of the day for the Eagles was the return of Liz Carlson's outstanding play. Liz won the individual medalist honors on Saturday with a fine score of 76. Alivia Behnfeldt also earned all-conference status by shooting a 94. Honorable Mention all-conference honors were won by Joy Thompson who shot 107. Laura Dennis shot 120 to round out the Eagles' scoring.

Congrats to all the girls on their accomplishments.
