[private]The top six-game totals for Hoosick Falls bowlers were Ken Marbot – 1,139, Josh McCart – 1,129, Stephen Surdam – 1,058 and Jennifer Sargood – 993.

“We were in first place after the morning round with a respectable 2,710 but got off to a slow start in the afternoon with a 846 game. We came back with a good 932 the next game but finished with a 870 last game which wasn’t enough to overtake Mechanicville who had a nice 981 in their last game to win the tournament.
“The team bowled good considering the difficult oil pattern that was being used. Overall, I was really proud how they stayed patient and finished third even though they struggled most of the afternoon. The team had an outstanding season winning the Southern Division with a great 54-2 point record and 13-0-1 match record, winning the Adirondack League Tournament and winning the overall Adirondack League Championship. Congratulations on a job well done!” said Coach Lang.
