Todays match was also Senior day and the Eagles only had one senior but a very important one. Hunter Garchow is a four year varsity bowler who has given his all to the Eagle bowling program. Hunter has finished the TVC East season averaging a 194. Coaches Comments: This was a pretty good day for us, a solid win over a neighborhood rival. We are throwing a lot of strikes right now, I would say as many if not more than last season. Our spare shooting is still sub par, Im not happy at all with where we have stalled in our spare game. We have two weeks until Regionals and we will be putting in a lot of extra effort on spares in practice going forward. Next up the Eagles will play a crossover match with TVC West opponent Novel Catholic Central Saturday 3/13 at LaFever Lanes 9:00 a m J V Action: Friday 3/5 The JV Eagles Gray Traveled to Monitor Lanes in Bay City to take on Bay City John Glenn.
