New Palestine captured the sectional title with a 324. Mt. Vernon (362) and Shenandoah (403) also advanced to Saturday’s Lapel Regional to be played at  Edgewood Golf Course.

New Palestine’s Katherine Kelley carded a 76 to top her teammate, Lauren Deering, by one stroke to earn the sectional medalist title.

Triton Central finished sixth in the team standings with a 457, trailing Rushville (430) and Greenfield-Central (432).
