Era of dominance over

For seemingly the past decade or so, the capital of the area's high school girls golf world has been Rochester Hills. To sum it up, Rochester has won three state titles and been state runner-up twice since 2002, while Stoney Creek finished second at the Division 1 state tournament the past two years. Those two schools also combined to produce the last four individual state champions in Amy Meier (2008), Christine Meier (2009), Devon Compton (2010) and Gabby Yurik (2011). What's really been impressive about those two is how they seem to reload and churn out more top-notch golfers each year. However, for the first time in a while that doesn't appear to be the case going into 2012. That's not a knock on either program since it's not easy to produce great players. Rather, it's just a tribute to how great of a run it was the past few years and it'll be a strange sight seeing the Rochester schools merely mortal this year. Knowing the area though, it will only be a matter of time before more top golfers come around again.
