Orange hopes to use the experience it gained in finishing 10-3 last season to its advantage during the 2019 campaign.
The Lions return four seniors in Leah Laisure, Noelle Laisure, Jesseca Hudson-Turpin and Elizabeth Harvey.
“We are very excited for the 2019 season as we are returning all seniors on our varsity team,” Orange coach Dave Chordas said. “Our expectations are for the girls to continue to improve, play with a sense of integrity and continue to be successful.”
Noelle Laisure averaged 54 strokes per nine holes last year with a season-best score of 40. She placed 39th at the sectional tournament and was named second-team All-Chagrin Valley Conference. She placed 11th at the CVC Preseason Tournament last week.
“Noelle participated in a summer golf camp this year and it shows,” Chordas said. “She has been striking the ball well and her short game has improved greatly.”
Leah Laisure averaged 56 strokes with a season-best score of 46. She placed 13th at the sectional tournament. She was an honorable mention All-CVC selection. She earned a 15th place finish at the CVC Preseason Tournament.
Hudson-Turpin averaged 58 strokes per nine holes with a season-best score of 50. She placed 37th at the sectional tournament.
“With two years of varsity experience, Jesseca has matured and has shown great confidence on the course this year,” Chordas said. “Jesseca is an all-around, multi-sport athlete and utilizes her talent to great success on the course.”
Harvey posted a season-best score of 54 last season.
