Crooms AoIT Boys Bowling Team Places 4th at 2013 FHSAA Districts; Mark Briggs Places 1st!

The Crooms AoIT boys bowling team re-kindled the bowling magic this year and had an outstanding showing at the FHSAA District 7 Bowling Tournament at the end of October. Overall, the team placed 4th in the competition. Freshman Mark Briggs bowled a 607 series to become the district champion, allowing him to advance to the state championship. At state competition this past week, Mark tied for 130th out of over 200 bowlers with a series of 658. With such a strong showing as a freshman, we're sure Mark has a bright bowling future head of him.

According to our not-so-illustrious one-man panel of Crooms AoIT sports historians, Mark is Crooms AoIT's first district champion in bowling and only the third male bowler to advance to state competition. Andrew Hennes, Class of 2006, advanced as a senior while Class of 2011 grad Andrew Figueroa advanced as a sophomore.

Congratulations to all of our Crooms AoIT bowlers on a job well done. You can also read about the Crooms AoIT's swim team's performance this year here. The end of the bowling state series also marks the end of the Fall season for Crooms AoIT. To round out the rest of the season: this year, girls volleyball and our cross country teams were independent (not subject to tournament competition), while our boys golf team competed in district competition.
