The Ithaca Varsity boys bowling team finished off the conference schedule with 2 more wins last week to complete their league championship season with a record of 10-0. The Yellowjackets defeated Shepherd 23-7 in their first match. Ithaca was led by Matt Hoard 233,232; Dalton Carl 238, Blake Gulick 233 and Jared Baublitz 214.
In match 2 Ithaca completed their undefeated conference season by beating St. Louis 27-3. They were led by Matt Hoard 220, 236; Blake Gulick 202,206; Jared Hoard 207 and a new school record baker game of 255.
Coach Wally Schneider: “We started a little slow today in our initial baker games but when we found our grove, wow, they really never let up. Matt Hoard has worked his way into the starting lineup over the last 4 weeks and in his words, “I am bowling out of my mind today.” Matt just could not miss today and probably had one of the best overall days we have ever had. I am very proud of this team and I think we are really peaking at the right time. We have the TVC Jamboree next week and then regionals. I think this team is ready.”
