One high point in Lori Lat- ta's bowling season was when she had a chance to aualify individually for State. UAfter the fourth game l had a pretty good chance, but with changing lanes and the pressure l did poor in my last 2 games, she explained. Bowling consistently to each girl's ability took much concentration. Getting Bowling: Front Row: Michele Ava- los, Michelle Hlad, Amee Gerloff: Row 2: Tanya Brown.

Remem- bering where to stand for different pin predicaments and where to place the bali took time and patience, Not only did we have to worry about where to stand, but we also had to keep up with new techniques that Mr. Bortel wanted us to try. Having the right arm exten- sion was pretty important because that guided the ball, explained Anessa Mil- zarek. By working together with constant practice, the bowling team ended with a respectable finish. 1
