BOWLING
Wiech second in regional singles, qualifies for state
Four members of Trinity’s bowling team competed against 36 other bowlers in the KHSAA Region 4 State Singles Bowling Tournament. The competitors bowled three games to get the field down to eight. The Rocks bowled as follows: Conor Minogue (168, 297, 198– 663 series), Elijah Donohue (228, 224, 207—661), Justin Wiech (259, 192, 199—650) and Quintin Wright (188, 224, 168—580).
Minogue, Donohue and Wiech qualified for the round of eight. After two more games, the field was cut to four with Wiech still standing as a No. 2 seed. Wiech reached the finals before losing 219-202. Wiech will represent the Rocks in the State Singles Championship Feb. 13 at Eastland Bowling Center in Lexington.
Minogue said, “Justin is in the state individual competition this year. I’m glad he gets the opportunity. I think this is really a chance for him to stand up and show people what he can do.”
