April 18: (SENIOR DAY) Quad-Match vs. Alpharetta, Cambridge, & Centennial

The only event of the week for the Lady Longhorns was a quad-match against Alpharetta, Cambridge, & Centennial. This was the final home match at Laurel Springs and our 3 seniors were honored for their contributions to the program. A light rain wore off after the ceremony and it turned out to be a great day for golf. The seniors led the way in scoring which was fitting as this match concludes the regular season, with the Area tournament on the horizon next week. The girls will be out at Bridgemill Athletic Club on Monday for a practice round and Thursday for the main event. The top 5 teams from Area will go on to the state tournament May 22-23 @Chateau Elan. Congratulations to the team on a great regular season, and thank you seniors for what you've meant to our golf program! (9 holes; Par 37)

SENIOR DAY FESTIVITIES!!!

Alison Crenshaw is the daughter of Selena & Michael Crenshaw. She has been a member of the Lambert Golf program since her freshman year. She will be attending Daytona State in Daytona Beach, Florida, next year to continue her golf career. Alison's personal motivation is "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as you work for the Lord". Alison's favorite club is her putter, her favorite athlete is Julio Jones, and if she had to sing karaoke, it would have to be a Taylor Swift song.

Coach Josh Sagel: "Alison works hard, always has something positive to say, and has one heckuva work ethic. She is going to be a force in college and in life."

Coach Stephen Pate: "Alison has a lot of innate abilities. She chooses no to rely on these and instead works extremely hard to do her best at whatever challenge she faces. I'm looking forward to seeing what she will accomplish as she moves forward."


Loren Kim is the daughter of Karen & Tony Kim. She has been a member of the Lambert Golf program since her freshman year. She will be attending Berry College in Rome, Georgia, next year to continue her golf career. Loren's favorite club is her driver, favorite restaurant is Maggianos, and would love for Rickie Fowler to be her caddie for the day.

Coach Stephen Pate: "Loren is really funny. It's important to note that is not the only thing which she excels. Loren is incredibly hard working and driven. Those are qualities I will choose to remember about her. She is so easy to root for and I have no doubt she will be successful as a result of the combination of those traits."

Mrs. Nicole McAllister: "Today Loren told me she was so excited about tomorrow. I asked her what was happening tomorrow, assuming it had something to do with prom or graduation. Instead, she said that she was excited to present her Forensics presentation on HH Holmes. Loren's enthusiasm is one of the many things that makes teaching her such a joy. My wish is for Loren to never lose her curiosity and love of learning!"



Christine McDonnell is the daughter of Maureen & Bob McDonnell. She has been a member of the Lambert Golf program since her freshman year. She will be attending the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, next year to continue her golf career. Christine's personal motivation is "Do what others won't now, so you can do what others can't later." Christine's favorite club is her 9 iron or driver, favorite candy is anything sour, and she would love for Jordan Speith to be her caddie of the day.

Coach Jeff Teeple: "Christine is one of the hardest working students I have had the pleasure of teaching, not only here at LHS, but over my 18 years in education. Christine is not only an amazing student, but she is an even better young woman. I cannot wait to see what she will accomplish at the Naval Academy and throughout her life!"
