We have been bowling well as a team for the past three weeks, following a mid-season slump. We are finally getting some consistency throughout the lineup, rather than depending on a couple bowlers to carry the team each game. This can be seen in our first Peterson game today, where we shot 1,104 and all five bowlers over 200.”
