Coach Dale Gearheart in his first year at Lakeland was able to end many years of no titles since Sherry Severson won in 1996.

The team celebrated by receiving a police and firetruck escort home from Wawa see High after defeating defending state champ Northwood 46-33.

The team with only 13 girls in the program was anchored by seniors,Bailey Hartsough and Madison Kiel. Faith Kiehl, a sophomore, was a key player until injured early in the season.

The Lady Lakers 20-7 will meet Griffith at Jimtown in game one Saturday.

Coach Gearheart previously coached both girls and boys in Indiana plus 3 years in Virginia. He is a graduate of Southern Wells and played collegiate ball at Huntington University.
