Haslett’s Olivia Stoll advances to Michigan Amateur final four for first time


Haslett’s Olivia Stoll is the only first-timer in the Michigan Women’s Amateur final four, which will wrap up on Friday at the Eagle Eye Golf Club in East Lansing.

Stoll, who has graduated from Grand Valley and is working for her father at three family-owned courses, beat Jessica Jolly of Rockford and the University of Nebraska, 4 and 3, in the round of 16, and then held off Bridget Boczar of Canton and Baylor University, 2 and 1.

“I hit the ball a lot better today and I’m starting to get a little more confidence with the driver,” Stoll said.

“I’ve made it to the eight a good amount, but this is one step farther and I have a chance on the last day. It’s going to come down to whoever makes the most putts.”

Stoll will play Bowser Friday at 8 a.m., and Fennell will face Elzinga at 8:15. The winners will square off in the afternoon for the title in the 109th edition of the state championship.
