WCHS Bowling Teams

Wilson Central Wildcats & LadyCats are Region 5 Champs!!  The Wildcats bowled their hearts out in a hard-fought rematch with Overton HS, taking the Region title by a 15-12 score.  Using a very balanced attack, the boys fought back from deficits of 2-6 & 7-9 in games 1 & 2 to take the victory over the Bobcats!  Chris Branner led our boys this match with a consistent 225-203-222 for a 650 series.  Spencer Harp led the boys in High Game with a nice 245 in game 2.  After bowling so well last year at this time and still getting beat, the guys "took care of business" this year and sent Overton traveling for sectionals.  Great job, 'Cats!!!

The LadyCats came out of the gate firing on all cylinders, and bowled games of 1141 & 1237 in games 1 & 2 to take 13 of 16 points, then cruised home with a 3369-2756 victory!!  Dani Chaffin was hot again this match, with a nice 256 game & 627 total leading the way.  Laurel Everett also had a 590 total, with a 214 game. Other good scores were:  Kirstin Page with a 223 game; Brennan Page a 209; Kaitlin Page 202.  Awesome bowling, LadyCats!!!   On to sectionals!!

Using the opportunity to rest some arms for the long final day of Regions, Coach Mark decided to start several non-starters to give more bowlers a chance to contribute.  And the TOTAL team effort led to victory for both teams, as the girls cruised over Franklin 21.5-5.5, and the boys held off a spirited Maplewood team 20-7!  JR Clemons led the boys in game 1 with a 252, and we needed every pin as we slid past Maplewood 1159-1114.  Game 2 saw a couple more starters slide back into the lineup, and they basically put the match away with a very nice 1291 game to M's 1101.  Chris Branner had 245, Seth Carey 235, Michael Whitlow 235, and JR Clemons 232 to lead the way in game 2.  Michael Whitlow stayed in all 3 games and finished with a very nice 640 series!  Nice bowling, Michael!!  Boys move on to the finals and a rematch of last year's Region 5 finals vs. Overton.

The LadyCats really bowled well today, especially the non-starters!  Elizabeth Callas led our girls with a super 217 in game 2, and a 569 series...way to go, EC!!  Brennan Page also had a nice 236 in game 1, and Dani (DC) Chaffin with a 209 in game 3.  The ladies finished with a 3029 series, and another step toward that coveted State Title.  The Finals match is another one vs. Mt Juliet...keep it up, LadyCats!!

The Central Boys & Girls got off to a great start in the Region 5 Tournament at Hermitage Lanes.  The first round matches saw the Wildcats roll easily over Martin Luther King HS 24-3, while the LadyCats pulled out the brooms for a sweep over Hume-Fogg 27-0!  Leading the way for the boys was Sr. Geremy Roseti, who rolled his high series of the year with a super 739, on games of 238, 278, & 223.  The 278 was also high game for the guys..way to go, Geremy!!  Other boys scores were:  Chris Branner with 255-648; Seth Carey with a 265 in game 1 and a 640 series; JR Clemons with a 247-640; & Spencer Harp with a 229-617.  Boys pinfall total was a very good 3819, to MLK's 2786.  Great start, 'Cats!!

The LadyCats were, again, simply dominant in their first-round match.  Led by Brennan Page's 267 in game 2, the girls knocked down 3444 pins to 2092 for Hume-Fogg.  Brennan also led the team in series with a very nice 653...good bowling, Bren!!  Other good scores today:  So. Brittany Sisco got back on track with a great 624 series, on games of 203-231-190...nice bowling, B-ritt; Dani Chaffin with a 211 game; Kirstin Page a 210 game; and Kaitlin Page a 202.  One match down, two to go for another Regional Championship...let's go, LadyCats!!

For the sixth year in-a-row, the Wilson Central LadyCats are District Champions!  In the District finals match vs. Mt Juliet, our girls didn't actually have their best day as a team, but it was certainly enough to get the win 22-5.  Total pins were 3111 - 2487, and with the match in-hand after 2 games (14-2), all of our ladies got in to play!  Leading the way for the girls was Jr. Dani Chaffin, with her personal best 278 game in game 2, and a nice 661 series.  Awesome bowling, Dani!!  Other good scores were Brittany Sisco with a 214 game, Kaitlin Page a nice 207, and Kirstin Page with a 200 game.  Congrats to the LadyCats!

The Wildcat Boys completed their first undefeated District season with a exclamation point win over Mt Juliet, rolling a new SCHOOL RECORD Game of 1402 in game 2, and finishing with their 2nd highest-ever series of 3919!  WOW!  Four of the six bowlers rolled 675+ series, with Sr. JR Clemons leading the way on games of 245-266-235 for a great 746 series!  Other big scores were:  Spencer Harp had High Game with a super 278, and finished with a 688 series; Sr. Geremy Roseti had a nice 247-677; So. Eric Lane stepped up nicely with a 233-675 total; & Seth Carey had a 227 in game 1.  Congratulations to the Wildcats for their 2nd District 10 title in-a-row!

The LadyCats also tried to better their own school records for game & series today.  And the result was a super 3522 total and a 27-0 victory to clinch the #1 seed in District 10 for next week's tournament.  Dani Chaffin leads the way again, this time with 11 of 12 strikes in game 1 for a 267, and a nice 652 series.  Brennan Page also bowled well with a 248-646.  And kudos to So. Brittany Sisco, who rolled her first 600 series today with a 200-234-185 for a 619 total~way to go, Brittany!  Congrats also to Laurel Everett with a 221 & 205 games; and to Kirstin Page - back from her surgery and bowling well with a 214 game 2.  Great bowling, ladies!!
