Olathe East senior golfer Allison Forristal said it has been a rough season &mdash; by her standards, that is. And in that regard, Monday had the makings of a rough round.</p><p>She finished the front nine at Ironhorse Golf Club with a string of 3-putts and made the turn at 5 over par during Kansas 6A regional play. </p><p>But the back nine was a different story. Forristal steadied herself, finished with a 5-over 77 and won the regional championship on the first hole of a playoff with Blue Valley West junior Morgan Cross.</p><p>&ldquo;That&rsquo;s the type of person she is,&rdquo; Olathe East coach Kathy Lilley said. &ldquo;She&rsquo;s never a quitter.&rdquo;</p><p>Now, Forristal will try to put a similarly strong finish on her varsity career next Monday in the 6A state tournament at Dodge City Country Club.</p><p>Blue Valley North won the team championship Monday with a 331, while BV West and BV Northwest also qualified for state.</p><p>Senior Erin Terry led BV North with a 79 and placed fourth, freshman Natalie Curran was seventh with an 83, and sophomore Stephanie Curran was ninth with an 84.</p><p>Cross led BV West with her runner-up finish, while junior Carly Jones (sixth at 82) and freshman Ashton Munholland (10th at 84) also scored in the top 10 for the Jaguars.</p><p>Junior Katie Morel led BV Northwest with an 81 for fifth.</p><p>Olathe East didn&rsquo;t qualify as a team, but Forristal will be joined at state by two teammates. Hawks freshman Jordan Chael (who took third with a 79 after a playoff with Terry) and senior Katelyn Nigus also qualified as individuals, along with Olathe Northwest&rsquo;s Cassie Wang and Kendra Wright.</p><p><strong><span class="subhead">5A: Misenhelter wins</span></strong></p><p>St. Thomas Aquinas senior Gianna Misenhelter took an uncharacteristic triple bogey on her first hole of 5A regional competition. But the rest of her round &mdash; and the final result &mdash; were no surprise for her.</p><p>Misenhelter, a two-time state champion, picked up 3 strokes on the back nine and finished with an even-par 72 at Crestwood Country Club in Pittsburg, winning her fourth regional title.</p><p>Aquinas, the defending 5A state champ, won the regional title by a commanding margin with a 314 team score. Senior Alexa Osbourn was the regional runner-up for the Saints with a 77, junior teammate Ali Kruse placed third with a 79, and all six Aquinas golfers finished in the top eight.</p><p>Bishop Miege and Gardner Edgerton also qualified for the 5A state tournament next Monday at Brookridge Country Club in Overland Park.
