After winning 12 of 14 matches a year ago and boasting one of the state's top golfers in Marissa DeCola, the sky could be the limit for the Butler girls golf team in 2011.The Tornado return almost their entire team, including eight with varsity experience — six being seniors — and a few more on the roster ready to contribute.
“ If there's a year we're going to win the WPIAL title, it should be this year,” Butler coach Sarah Zediker said. “We do have so many returners that have experience.”DeCola will lead the way as she won the Division I Section I title last fall, tied for second place in the PIAA West region and followed up with an eighth-place showing at the PIAA Championships.Rebecca Shakely, Addy Nanni, Kelsey Schneider, Lauren Weiland and Monica Caparosa are the returning seniors with juniors Tori Hesidence and Ava Bonetti are the squad's key juniors.Now, the Tornado will be among the WPIAL favorites battling for the title. All the experience will be the biggest reason why.
