Performance of the Week: Macomb Lutheran North's Lauren Timpf
October 27, 2023
Lauren Timpf ♦ Macomb Lutheran North
Senior ♦ Golf
Timpf closed her high school career over the weekend as one of the most accomplished champions in MHSAA golf history. She carded a final-round 5-under-par 67 at The Meadows at Grand Valley State University on Saturday to finish with a two-round 141 and win the Lower Peninsula Division 3 individual championship by eight strokes. The championship was Timpf's third at a Final, as she and Ann Arbor Greenhills junior Mia Melendez (who won the LPD4 title over the weekend) joined just six others in Lower Peninsula girls golf history to finish as a Finals medalist three times.
The 67 tied for the second-lowest 18-hole score at a girls MHSAA Final, all classes and divisions included, and was just a stroke behind Timpf's Finals-record 66 from the first round of the 2021 LPD3 championship tournament at Michigan State University's Forest Akers West. The 141 tied for the eighth-lowest 36-hole score on the all-class/division Finals list (on which Timpf's 2021 score of 139 remains tied for third). She will continue next season at Purdue.

Performance of the Week: Allen Park's Sophie Ramey
February 20, 2026
Sophie Ramey ♦ Allen Park
Senior ♦ Competitive Cheer
Ramey, a two-time Division 2 all-state first-team selection, was among top contributors as Allen Park clinched a repeat title in the Downriver League with a season-high three-round score of 796.10 points at the conference championship meet. The Jaguars won by just less than a point ahead of rival Gibraltar Carlson, clinching the league title with a season-best 323.6 in Round 3.
Allen Park remains ranked No. 1 statewide in Division 2 this week, while Carlson is No. 2 statewide, and those two programs have combined to win the last 18 Division 2 Finals championships with Allen Park finishing first the last two seasons. Ramey was a major part of both of those teams as well and is considering continuing to cheer after leaving Allen Park to attend Grand Valley State University, where she plans to study secondary education while majoring in mathematics and minoring in psychology.
