The guys bowled very well this weekend and I am very proud that they bowled as a team and never gave up, averaging 1036 per game, the best average for us this year in a tournament. Our team would like to thank all of the parents, family and friends that supported us all year and came out to watch our matches and tournaments. We would also like to thank our Athletic Directors, Tim Carlson and Brett Goff for coming down and supporting us this weekend. And to also thank the Sycamore Sports Boosters for the special send off dinner.
