LaFayette junior golfer Jacob Morgan watches his putt during a practice round with teammate Kurt Ingram Thursday at LaFayette Golf Course. The Ramblers are one of six teams competing for a state championship today.The LaFayette golf team has already established itself in the school record book. The Ramblers last won a region championship when most of this team was sporting diapers.
They’re going for more history today.
LaFayette has not won a state championship golf tournament since 1976. That banner hangs inside the gymnasium next to championship banners from other sports.
“We talk about that a lot,” LaFayette coach Tom Langford said. “I think this generation of golfers could win one too.
“Heck we treasure the region championship because they don’t happen all that often.”
