QUOTABLES
Head Coach Matt Nantais
"We did not bowl to our capability this weekend and is a little disappointing after our performance at the last event.  Shot-making and spare shooting at times were nonexistent. We did end up, figuring it out and came away with the tournament championship but we need to be better than we were this weekend if we want to be in the postseason."


 
 
NOTABLES
