LONDON, Ont. - Felicia Moyer will be teeing off at OFSAA.

The East Elgin Eagle won the high school division, at the Western Ontario Secondary Schools Athletic Association (WOSSAA) girls' golf championship, at Westminster Trails, carding an 87 over 18 holes.

The top team in the 'A' flight open division and the low three individuals, not on that team,  as well as the three low scores for the high school division, qualify for OFSAA, Oct 11-12, in North Bay.

Taylor Kehoe, from Strathroy District Collegiate Institute (SDCI), won the open division, with a tournament low individual score of 72.

Woodstock C.I.'s Madeline Choi, finished second, carding a 77, one shot lower than Rylie Grogan, of London Mother Teresa.

Julia Davis, from London Central and Robyn Lewis, from St. Marys DCVI, tied for second place, in the high school division.

A week after winning the Thames Valley Regional title, the London Lucas Vikings' team, of Cindy Won, Aarushi Vasudev, Shreya Dala and Helena Woodhouse, walked away with the WOSSAA crown, with a combined score of 289. Won led the team, with an 82, fourth lowest individual score. The three lowest individual scores count towards the team number, if team has a fourth member.

Grogan and her Mother Teresa team-mates (Charee Botha, Mackenzie Mercer) placed second, with a combined score of 302, while Strathroy DCI, led by Kehoe, placed third, at 345.

Parkside's Madison Telford, scored a 93 for her round, fifth best in the open division. Central Elgin's Stephanie Byerson, shot a 106.

In 'B' flight, Woodstock College Avenue won the team title, while Woodstock's CI's Caitlin Moss, had the low individual score, of 45 over nine holes.
