“Our E-Gals bowlers pulled off a nice win yesterday against a mixed DC squad to continue their undefeated season in match play,” Apollo girls’ head coach Kerrie Franklin said. “We had several bowlers bowling above their season averages which is great to see leading into Region next weekend. The girls’ team missed going to the State tournament last year, but this team is coming together and working hard. They will be a contender to get back there this Saturday.”
On the boys’ side, Owen Miller rolled 226 and 195m while Landon Thompson bowled 258. Ryan Krampe and Andrew Smith both bowled 193.
“We struggled at first and it got us too far behind,” Apollo boys’ coach Brian McCormick said. “I thought we bounced back strong in the end and so I am pleased with the effort going into Region this weekend. We still have some work to do this week, but I am feeling good about it.”
