Central took a quick lead in Game 1, 5-3 and Total Pins 1085 to 1023. Central’s Jacob Garretson (Junior) started the match off with a bang with a 267 and was followed by Kevin Kennedy’s (Senior) 180.

Going into Game 3, Central trailed Catholic 7-9 but led Total Pins by 17. Unfortunately for Central, Catholic would roll one of their highest games in recent years and win the final game 5-3 and 1125-1028.

    In the end, Catholic won 17-10 and won the Total Pins battle, 3195-3115. The loss not only snaps Central’s 20-game winning streak (dating back to the 2012 season), but also snaps the Wildcat’s 5-game winning streak over Catholic. Central was led by Garretson a 628 series, followed by Aucoin’s 569, Ringo’s 565 and Kennedy’s 512. The Bears were led by Shane Breaux (230/615) and Austin Bertrand (216/593).

CENTRAL BOYS BOWLING EARN 1ST WIN AGAINST MADISON PREP

    In their second match of the season, the Central Boys (1-1) showed exactly what they’re capable of bowling. Central would destroy Madison Prep (0-1) by a final score of 26-1 and 3346-2190 in Total Pins on Monday (1-27-14).
