Staples Girls Golf Team Wins FCIAC West Title

The Staples High School Girls Golf Team battled through the rain and a stormy weather delay into the evening today to defeat Greenwich 180-182 to capture the FCIAC West Division championship title.  This was the first loss in years for the Cardinals at their home course, affectionately known as “The Griff.” Staples is ranked No. 1 in the state and wraps up its home season at Longshore on Tuesday against Warde.  Pictured (l to r) are Erika McDonald, Alexandra McMahon, captains Mary Bennewitz and Faith Garcia, Anelise Browne, Varsity Coach Bob Byiteck, and Marie McHugh.
