-Practice this Wednesday at Strike and Spare 5pm, \\
-\\
-Sunday's practice may be cancelled, I feel we need a rest as we have had a month of 3 days-a-week and that the oil pattern that Blackiston Bowl has been providing for our practices lately has not been equal to what we see when bowling the match pattern. \\

-**
-Update:**  We have had 2 successful weeks of team competition at Blackiston Bowl.  \\
-The first week we competed head-to-head against Clarksville High School \\
-The second week we competed against the bye.  The bye is due to having an odd
-number of teams in the league.  9 to be exact.  We shouldn't face the bye again
-this year.
