The Tecumseh Indian Golf team fell just short of their goal of qualifying for the MHSAA finals on Tuesday, as they placed 4th in the Division 3 Regional 17 at West Shores Country Club in Grosse Ile. Despite failing to qualify as a team, junior Sydney Walsh will be competing in the Finals next week October 16-17 in Big Rapids at Ferris State University’s Katke Golf Course by grabbing the last individual qualifying spot shooting a 95. In the MHSAA tournament format, the top three teams in the regional advance to Finals, as well as the top three individuals not on the three qualifying teams. The regional was won by Ann Arbor Gabriel Richard, who finished with a score of 390, followed by Detroit Country Day at 393 and Pinckney at 397. Tecumseh's 4th place finish was achieved with a total score of 409. Walsh’s 95 led the Indians effort, while other counting scores for the Indians included Layla Fisher’s 101, Olivia Schmidt 103 and Savannah Lacey’s 110. Walsh finished 7th in the overall tournament, her 12th top ten finish in 14 outings this season and will cap off a breakout year with her final’s appearance next weekend, when she takes a 92.4 18-hole average to Big Rapids. Walsh was also named SEC all-league at last week’s SEC championship and won the Lenawee County tournament back on September 24. The regional result concludes an outstanding campaign for Tecumseh this year, which saw them finish with a record of 63-16 and champions of the SEC White Division. The Indians also won three different Invitational Tournament’s this season including the Adrian Maple Invitational and were repeat champions of both the Tecumseh Invitational and the Lenawee County Tournament. The Indians also had a strong runner-up performance at the 45th Annual Western Panther Invite, which always draws a strong field of teams to the event. Finally, the future looks strong as the Indian JV team won the SEC tournament and finished 2nd in the Southern Michigan JV Championship in Coldwater. In addition to their tournament the JV's were undefeated in dual matches this season.
