“The team bowled outstanding today with a great total pin count of 3,800 pins. This was our third 3,800 or better series of the season, and it came at a good time against Corinth, which is the second best team in the Northern Division of our league. The first game we had a nice 1,310 total which included at least a 200 game from each of the Varsity bowlers; that is the first time that has happened this year. It was another great team effort on lanes that we will be bowling on in the League Championship in a few weeks. This should build some confidence for that match knowing that we bowled well in this match. I hope they bowl this well tomorrow against Stillwater, which is the second best team in our division. The team is peaking at the right time” Coach Lang said.
