ALL-EDMOND GOLF 2012PLAYERS OF THE YEAR

FIRST TEAM

Max McGreevy won the Class6A individual championshipthis year, a first for a Santa

Fe player. The title capped a juniorseason that saw him win tourna-ments at Enid and at Guthrie,where he shot a 64, a Santa Ferecord low score. He had nine top-five finishes and finished in the topnine at every tournament.

The 4.0 student paced the Wolvesto the academic state champi-onship, as well as to a fourth-placeteam finish at the state tourna-ment.

In addition to his low scorerecord, McGreevy set Santa Ferecords for stroke average at 72.1,most rounds at par or better in a

season (10) and in a career, andmost season and career tourna-ment wins.

“I can’t say enough about thiskid,” Santa Fe coach Michael Stolzsaid.

Stolz said McGreevy truly “gets it”about leadership.

“He’s one of the best leaders I’veever coached. He helps every kidon the team with their swing, put-ting, course management and atti-tude.”

Stolz said McGreevy’s leadershipand unselfishness come throughon the course.

“He would truly give up the indi-vidual state championship for ateam one.”

Allison Sell stamped the history booksthis year, becoming the first EdmondNorth Lady Husky to win the individ-

ual state title. Sell shot 73-74 to win thechampionship and pace North to a sec-ond-place team finish.

Sell was third at regionals, second at theDeer Creek and Westmoore invitationaltournaments, and made the All-Conference team while playing to a 76.6stroke average. She finished fifth at state asa sophomore.

North coach Audra Smalley said Sell hasa level-headed, calm demeanor on thecourse and this season improved herlength off the tee, which has made hittinggreens in regulation a big part of her lowscoring average.

“I really can’t say enough about Allison,

she is the most humble person that Iknow,” Smalley said. “She is just a hardworker who never quits.”

The coach pointed to one midseasonstretch in which Sell played through anarm injury.

“I didn’t even know how she could gripthe club,” Smalley said. “She would notquit and completed the round, she didn’twant to let her team down.

“All the girls respect her so muchbecause of her hard work, determinationand dedication. I can always count onAllison, not only on the course but in theclassroom. She won the state tournamentand 30 minutes later she was in the carstudying for her classes the next day.

“I am truly blessed to have the opportu-nity to coach Allison.”

OCA’s Drewke signs with OCOklahoma Christian Academy senior Kara Drewke signed to play soccer at

Oklahoma Christian University this week.Pictured, seated from left, are OCA football coach Keith Lough, Kara Drewke, OC

women’s head soccer coach Randall Robinson and OCA basketball coach Elzie Clark.Standing from left are Kara’s father, Rob Drewke, sister, Erin Drewke, and mother, KimDrewke.

The signing is particularly significant given that OCA does not field a soccer team,and Drewke’s club team, the Tsunami at Edmond Soccer Club, is a recreational team— a boys recreational team.

“When she started high school, she was able to kick for the football team, play bas-ketball and run track and cross country,” Kim Drewke said. “The competitive (soccer)schedule was too demanding, and she wanted to keep her commitments to her schoolsports,” so she moved to a recreational team. She wanted to be more competitive, soshe went to ESC coach Albert Aguilar, who put her on the Tsunami boys team.

Drewke has been a referee at ESC for about six years, and is at a level that allows herto officiate high school-age games.

At OC, she hopes to continue playing outer midfield, and plans on running track aswell.

“She loves to run,” her mother said.
