Emporia High golf will send three athletes to the State Golf Meet at the Hesston Golf Course on Monday.<\/p>\n

\u200bThe Lady Spartans are led by freshman Taylen Koch, who finished fourth at regionals last week. She says she is excited for her first state tournament appearance and is aiming to make the cut for day two.<\/p>\n

\u200bJoining Koch is teammate Kelsey Shull, who secured a spot in the state field for the second time in her high school career. Shull says remembering how nervous she was last year is helping her prepare for this trip.<\/p>\n

\u200bRounding out the group is dual-sport state qualifier Kynlee Maxfield. Having already reached the state tournament in wrestling, Maxfield credits her strong work ethic for earning her first career trip to golf\u2019s biggest stage.<\/p>\n
