WEST HENDERSON’S SCUIPIDER HOLDS ON TO WIN

CHAMPIONSHIP IN NCHSAA 1A/2A/3A WOMEN’S GOLF

SOUTHERN PINES— West Henderson’s Kayla Scuipider held on to capture the individual championship on Tuesday in the North Carolina High School Athletic Association’s state 1A/2A/3A women’s golf championships at the Longleaf Golf and Country Club.

Scuipider, who finished tied for third in the individual standings in the 2008 championships, had a four-over 75 on the final day to go with an opening round 74 for a 149 total, three shots ahead of the field. Gastonia Ashbrook’s Megan Burnham, who had Tuesday’s best round with a 72, and Andrea Robbins of Climax Providence Grove were tied for second at 152.

A trio of golfers, including Lori Beth Adams of Western Alamance, Mattie Toby of East Lincoln and Pikeville Charles B. Aycock freshman Tara Simmons, were knotted for fourth at 154.

The championship layout was par 71 and 5,618 yards. Courtney Gunter of Indian Trail Porter Ridge won the last three individual championships but graduated.

In the team standings, West Henderson rallied from eight shots down after the opening day to record a 509 and win the title by eight shots over first-day leader Salisbury. Hampstead Topsail was third at 521.

Two-time defending champion Cameron Union Pines did not qualify a team for the tournament.

The best three scores of a team counted toward the team totals, and a total of 12 teams and 78 golfers competed in the event, the seventh year that a separate 1A/2A/3A championship has been held.

Wendy’s is the presenting sponsor of the NCHSAA sports program.
