FRANKLIN - The Warsaw girls golf teams' hopes of duplicating what the boys did this past spring came to an end Friday.

The Tigers failed to qualify for the second day of competition at the 2005 IHSAA girls golf state tournament at The Legends of Indiana Golf Course after shooting a 359.

The boys qualified third and outlasted Richmond and Leo to win the first golf state championship in school history and become the first team to win a title at Warsaw since 1991.

The girls entered Friday's first day of competition after finishing second at the East Noble Regional behind DeKalb.

DeKalb made the cut and sits in seventh with a score of 341. Defending state champion Penn (313) sits in first place with a comfortable 13-stroke lead over Martinsville.

Warsaw will be represented today as junior Emily Johnson shot a 77 Friday and is in a tie for ninth-place with fellow Northern Lakes Conference golfers in Northridge's Lyndsay McBride and Concord's Jessica Dooley.

Muncie Central's Michelle Morgan and Evansville Memorial's Ellen Mueller are tied for the individual lead after one day on the strength of impressive rounds of 71.

Johnson advanced despite a double bogey on the par-4 fourth by battling back with a birdie on the par-3 eighth. Johnson played the back nine two-over par.

Warsaw also carded senior Megan Krizmanich's 92. Fellow senior Laura Manning closed out her high school career with a 94. Seniors Elena Duncan and Jenny Manning both shot 96s for the Tigers.

This girls golf team has advanced to state competition three years in a row. That feat had never been accomplished at Warsaw Community High School by any team.

Last year, Warsaw failed to qualify for the second day of competition, while the Tigers finished eighth in 2003 on the strength of Johnson's individual state championship performance.

The Tigers won their sectional this year at Stonehenge Golf Club and were undefeated in the NLC with a record of 6-0 and ended with an 11-2 record overall.

Johnson is the only member from this year's state qualifying team that will return as the other four are seniors.

The top nine teams and any team within 12 strokes of of the lead advanced. The top nine individuals, as well as those four strokes from the leader, not on an andvancing team also advanced.

Team scores - Penn 313, Martinsville 326, Noblesville 39, Valparaiso 327, Hamilton Southeastern 336, Richmond 337, DeKalb 341, Greensburg 347, Brownsburg 348, LaPorte 351, Kokomo 355, Evansville Memorial 356, Avon 357, Marion 358, Warsaw 359, Yorktown 361, Homestead 363, Center Grove 374, Twin Lakes 380, Northview 382, Jasper 384

Understanding Qualified Charitable Distributions (QCDs) And Using Them
Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) are for people over the age of 70.5 years old.
