top four players are counted for the team total. Ray produced a solid 15 holes with 14 pars and a bogey, but three double-bogeys affected her score.

Both Morse and Bishop were proud of their players’ performances in Carmel. “Coach Bishop and I are extremely proud of the effort and overall performance of our team,” said Morse. “It was our goal from the very beginning of the season to build team culture centered around the theme “We Are Family” and with the leadership of our two seniors, Addie Livorno and Kara Heuchan, our team came together and will go down as one of the best teams in Franklin Community School history. Competing at the (IHSAA) State Finals for the first time in 24 year, the Grizzlies came away finishing eighth in the state. We hope this is just the beginning of a long stretch of State Finals appearances.” According to Bishop, his team set a goal at the beginning of the season and that mission was accomplished. “We set a goal from day one of going to the IHSAA State Girls Golf Finals,” said Bishop. “We had great support this week from friends and family as we prepared for Friday and Saturday. These girls will never forget this week or this season. It was the 11th time that FCHS girls have gone to State. It was the first time since 1999.” Going into the IHSAA State Girls Golf Finals, the overall record for FCHS was 108-21 (.837) with a school record 312.4 scoring average.
