Versailles Boys Varsity Bowlers topple New Bremen 

The Boys Varsity Bowling team traveled to Community Lanes in Minster Saturday, November 26th to take on the New Bremen Cardinals.  The boys match immediately followed the girls match and they were bowling on 11 and 12.

The lanes should be pretty good to start out, but as the match progresses, the lanes are really going to start hooking a lot. So, be ready to have to make some big adjustments.” 

Versailles won the first game 935 pins to 770 pins.  The Tigers beat the Cardinlas in game two 944  to 805, giving Versailles a 304 pin lead heading into the baker games.  Versailles won the first baker game 182 to 122.  The Tigers won the second baker game 178 to 156.  Versailles won the 3rd baker game 169 to 140.  Versailles won the 4th baker game 188 to 126 and lost the 5th and final baker game 158 to 136.  The Tigers won the match with 2732 total pins to 2237 total pins for New Bremen.
