Board member Scott Schaffenacker made a motion for a resolution
recognizing the team. The resolution said that "high school
athletics promotes the healthy lifestyle camaraderie, and school
spirit" and "golf is a lifetime sport equally pursued and mastered
by boys and girls."
The resolution also said "our area high school programs have
produced a number of accomplished players and teams" and "the
Lincoln Community High School girls' golf team enjoyed an
outstanding 2016 golf season nearly winning the conference
championship."

feat of winning the individual conference title."
The resolution said "it has been many years since an area player has
won conference and did so against a very strong field" and "a
victory of this magnitude cannot occur without many months of hard
work and training by all the players working together as a unit."
The resolution said "the high level of individual success was made
possible by excellent coaching, competitive and encouraging
teammates, supportive families, and a high school administration
committed to extracurricular participation at all levels."

Board chairman David Hepler presented the resolution to the coach
and the team and asked the coach and Stiefvater to say a few words.
Golf coach Amy Fink said, "golf is not an easy sport to just pick
up." She said all the girls "worked really hard and the hard work
shows." Fink said she is "really proud of all of them" and hopes to
get more girls who want to play golf.
Stiefvater said, "It took me ten years to be where I am today and I
am still not where I want to be, but if you keep working hard,
you're going to get really far."
The board congratulated the team for their great season.
