Notre Dame Prep beat the field by 21 strokes this week at the Aguila Golf Course in Laveen to win the fourth championship in program history and Chaparral took second place after winning it all last year.
The Saints were led by sisters Olivia Richardson (71-67: 138) and Lauren Richardson (67-75: 142) who finished in the top two spots. Lauren, only a freshman, led most of the tournament until her junior sister made a move with four birdies down the stretch, including a 20-foot putt on the 18th green to cap off her victory on Tuesday.
The Saints will lose Brooke White (97-89: 186) to graduation but the Richardson sisters will return along with sophomore Emi Hartman (82-83: 165) and Claire Decaussin (83-85: 168).
Salpointe tied for third place, Ironwood Ridge came in fifth and Rincon University took 12th. Salpointe junior Samantha Saxon (73-73: 146) and RUHS junior Ariela Renee Trejo (72-74: 146) tied for third place and Ironwood Ridge senior Calleigh McMahon (76-73: 149) took eighth to finish in the top ten.
