Big weekend for LCC boys golf

Friday should be big enough. Lima Central Catholic enters the Northwest Conference boys golf tournament undefeated (as of Monday). But Saturday trumps even that as the Thunderbirds make the trip to Dublin and participate in the Muirfield Invitational.
Yes, that Muirfield. The one Jack built.
"That's what everyone's saying, 'You're going to be walking in the same steps as Tiger Woods,'" LCC No. 1 golfer John Goetz said. "I'm real excited to go play it. Of course I want to play well, but the thrill of being there is going to be real exciting."
Competing in the Invite are some of the big guns in Division I boys golf, including Columbus Bishop Watterson, Dublin Jerome and Upper Arlington. Should be a great test for the T-Birds heading into Division III sectional play, which starts Sept. 27.
"Last year, we really had a down year," Goetz said. "This year we want to turn that around."
