Celina Coach Josh Goff—

Chloe Bruce led Celina with a 593 series which was 4th overall for the tournament. Nerves got to us early and we started slow with an 812 game. Game 2 we started to find our groove and shot an 876, and game 3 was even stronger with a 949. Bakers were up and down, but we found enough in the last game to finish second on the day earning second overall in the league. Great way to finish a strong regular season.

This team is peaking at the right time and will make a lot of noise in the postseason.

Celina’s Ryann Eckhardt 1st Team WBL, Chablis Krick 2nd Team WBL, and Piper Gilliland Honorable Mention WBL.

These Boys are getting hot at the right time. In the first 3 games the boys shot 923,979, and 934 respectively. The first couple bakers were in the 190’s and then we had some open frames in the next 3 bakers. We closed out bakers on a high note at a 206. We missed 2nd place by 1 pin. Overall the boys showed the talent they have. And that they can compete with anyone.
