On Monday, the LCHS Golf team traveled to Franklin for a district match against Franklin Simpson at Kenny Perry’s Country Creek Golf Course. The boys were looking to go 3-0 in matches on the season. This match would be the toughest they have had so far this season.
The entire team went for this match, so the varsity and JV boys played as did Emma Fitzgerald, who is the lone representative for the girls.
