It was another incredible night of bowling Friday as the Decorah girls’ and boys’ bowling teams came out on top of Charles City at King Pin Entertainment.
The boys squad moved to 5-0 winning 3,309 to 2,705. Baker scores were 208, 217, 213, 172 and 247.
Leading the Vikes were Cade Averhoff with games of 212 and 245, followed by TJ Round who rolled a 184 and 268. On their heels was Brock Christensen with 216 and 234 scores. Also on varsity were Bryce Elsbernd (215, 234), Tyler Novak (211, 233) and Jordan Sims (225, 204).
“The baker round was just average for the guys with a 1,057; however, their score of 3,309 was the second-highest match score in school history,” noted Coach Keith Bruening.
In junior varsity boys’ action, the Vikes fired a 2,830 — a score above the Charles City varsity team with Jace Buddenberg leading the way with a 415 tally.
The Viking girls also improved to a 5-0 record with a win over Charles City, 2,686 to 1,966. Baker scores were 192, 221, 151, 147 and 183.
“I’m so proud of our girls as they move into a position to win the conference,” said Coach K. Bruening. “We started slow but came on strong with great energy.”
Sophomore Karlie Einck was the top bowler for the girls with a 222 and 182. Addison Wicklund gave a good effort with a 148 and 223, followed by Annika Grinna who rolled 170 and 180. Others on the lanes in varsity action were Marri Feuerhelm (157, 175), Asmere Jensen (113, 148) and Jasera Tweten (135, 200).
The JV girls’ squad received a forfeit to move to 5-0 for the season with Kennedy Riehle (295) and Isabella Schnitzler (287) leading the way.
Decorah will be at Tripoli Friday, Jan. 12, at 4 p.m.
