Lady Eagles Make History at UIL AAAA State Tournament
May 13-14, 2019
Plum Creek Golf Course – Kyle, Texas

The Argyle Lady Eagles arrive at the UIL AAAA State Tournament carrying more than clubs and scorecards.

They carry history.

When Argyle tees it up at Plum Creek Golf Course in Kyle, the Lady Eagles make just the second state tournament appearance in program history and step onto one of the biggest stages in Texas high school golf. For a program still building its identity at the state level, getting there matters. The way Argyle competes once it arrives matters even more.

The Lady Eagles finish seventh in the state with a 36-hole total of 698, posting rounds of 347 and 351 against the best Class 4A teams in Texas. In a field where every shot matters and every mistake is magnified, Argyle proves it belongs.

That becomes clear from the opening round.

Junior Hannah Wood leads the way with a 78, one of the best rounds in the field, while sophomore Madelyn Diomede adds an 86. Senior Molly Yarbrough contributes an 88, freshman Katie Garner cards a 95, and senior Kenzie Sullivan posts a 107 as the Lady Eagles close day one at 347. The score places Argyle fourth on a tightly packed leaderboard, with only 10 shots separating second place from seventh.

That is the kind of state-tournament atmosphere every contender chases — compressed, pressure-filled, and demanding from the opening tee shot to the final putt.

On day two, Argyle returns with the same fight.

Wood and Diomede each post 84s to steady the lineup, while Garner improves to an 89. Yarbrough adds a 94, and Sullivan cuts 12 shots from her opening round with a 95 as the Lady Eagles close the championship with a 351. When the final scores are posted, Argyle stands seventh in the state, a finish that places this group among the most accomplished in program history.

Wood’s performance stands out in particular.

Her 78-84—162 finish earns a top-10 placing and a spot on the All-State Team, giving Argyle one of the top individual performers in the tournament. On a stage filled with elite players from across Texas, Wood delivers exactly the kind of performance great teams need from their leaders.

But this story is bigger than one player.

This team sets a new benchmark for Argyle girls golf. The Lady Eagles do not just make the state tournament — they redefine what the program can be. This group establishes new standards across the board, setting school records for lowest team score over 18 and 36 holes, lowest individual score over 18 and 36 holes, lowest individual scoring average, and the program’s best finish at the state tournament.

That matters because state appearances stay with a program.

State teams become the standard. They become the proof that the climb is possible. This Argyle team does exactly that, taking the program to the state stage, competing with confidence, and leaving the season with a new level of belief in what comes next.

In the end, the Lady Eagles do more than make it to Kyle.

They make history there.

The Secret’s in the Dirt.

COMPETE WITH JOY
