McDaniel qualifies 1st, Cox 7th, Baker 18th in Individual State
The next four games were bowled on a "Sport Lane Condition," where the lanes are oiled differently than usual, to put a premium on accuracy and spare shooting. The scores were a lot lower, as expected, but one WC bowler prevailed and made it to the finals - Jere McDaniel qualified 4th for the Top 6 Finals tomorrow with a 1619 total (8 games) - a 202 average. Ryan Cox just missed the finals, finishing in 9th place with a 1534. For the girls, Traci Baker ended up in 22nd place for the tournament. GOOD LUCK to Jere in the Finals!!
LadyCats finally win Sectional, are going to the Elite Eight at State!

LADYCATS ARE REGION 5 CHAMPS!!
For the 2nd year in a row, the Wilson Central LadyCats are Region 5 Champions!! In the first round match on Tuesday, Amanda Moore rolled a 235 game to lead the LadyCats to an easy 18-9 victory over Hume-Fogg HS. All the subs got to bowl game 3, as the starters rolled to a 270-pin lead after two games. Then came Day 2...
In the semi-final match against Centennial HS, our LadyCats started very slowly. Losing game one 6-2, things didn't look good. But the ladies responded with a nice 948 game, and took 7 of 8 points to take a lead they would not relinquish. Leading the way in this match was Amanda Moore again, with a nice 192-502. Final score WC 19 - 8. Now, the finals...
Against the McGavock Girls-undoubtedly our toughest opponent of the year (so far)-the LadyCats needed to have a good match - and proved that they were up to the challenge! Led by Brittany Farmer & Amanda Moore's dual 202's in game 1, the ladies rolled a great 1,016 game and took 6 of 8 points to start the match. They never looked back, winning the final 20-7!! Farmer led with a 546 series, Amanda Moore with a 529, and Traci Baker with a 520, the girls rolled a 2,846 total. A great performance even with Farmer battling a leg injury, and Jasmine Akers hurting her ankle in the semis, this one is a match these ladies will remember for a long time. Now it is on to the Sectional event on Saturday, January 20th.
GO LADYCATS!!
