The Wolfpack faced off against St. Viator last night falling 9-0. The Pack fought hard in an evenly match contest but the Lions did not give up a point. Frank Rottman had two turkeys and a hambone last night to lead Ignatius.
The Pack had its first taste of Baker Bowling this weekend, playing every school in the CCL but struggle going 1-14 in games. The Pack was led by Frank Rottman, Ethan Windmayer, and James Graham who picked up lots of strikes, winning a match over De La Salle and coming within ten pins of several other schools. Rottman even picked up a difficult 7-4-10 split. Next up we have St. Viator back at Habetler Bowl on Tuesday.
The Pack fell to the Friars in a heated matchup 9-0. The Pack came within 200 pins in the final game with Junior James Graham having an outstanding game, rolling a 141 in his first game of the season. Senior Frank Rottman and Sophomore Ezana Beniyam bowled a 349 and 344 series in the match. Freshman Ethan Widmayer contributed to the strikes and the spares throughout the game. Bowling action starts again on Saturday with a CCL Baker Series and a dual on Tuesday against St. Viator.
The Wolfpack rolled past the IC Catholic Prep Knights in their first match of the year. The small but mighty team of Frank Rottman, Diego Berry-Marinez, and Paul Skomoroch picked up over 1600 pins in the three games, winning each one and taking the match. Rottman had two turkeys in his impressive performance while Skomoroch and Berry-Marinez both contributed several strikes. Up next is Fenwick on Thursday at Habetler Bowl.
