Wildcats survive major upset bid by young MJ team

Posted by Mark Hubbuch on Oct 25 2010 at 05:00PM PDT

Each year since moving to District 10 in 2005, we have had a big rivalry with Mt Juliet HS, just like every other sport at WC.  And even with a young and very different team this year, the Golden Bears gave our team everything they had and nearly pulled off what would have been a pretty big upset.  Our boys do hold on though, and win over MJ 15-12, with total pins at 3722-3639.  Leading 10-6 and +118 in pins after two games, we were looking to take control in game 3.  But the MJ bowlers had other ideas, as they rolled a season-high 1267 at us in winning 6 of 8 points!  (Congrats to MJ bowlers Jenn Fitzgibbons with her 254-680 and Spencer Shockley with a great 279 game).  Thankfully, our veteran leaders (Chris, Seth, & Spencer) finished game 3 really strong and knocked down enough pins to help us take the 3 points from the series.  Chris Branner led our troops today with a good 238 game & 686 series...nice bowling, Chris!  Other good scores for our boys were:  Spencer Harp steady each game at 237, 223, & 222 for a 682 total; Seth Carey  also good with a 653 (226, 215, 212); Brett Miler a 215; Eric Lane 208; and John Petty with a 202.  3722 is a pretty good series for our guys, and they were steady all day, with games of 1261, 1229, & 1232.  Great win, Wildcats!!  Wildcats now 8-1 on the season.
