Evergreen Senior Living Life Enrichment Coordinator Diane Steele said several bowl all the time at their complex.
She explained the state competition process: “They started bowling in February – about 80 teams entered. After 8 weeks, top 4 in 8 divisions bowled a week (total of 32 teams), then top 2 of the 8 divisions bowled (16 teams), then 1 team from each division bowled and the top 4 of the 8 teams that bowled went to state.”
“It is a big deal to place this high at state,” Steele said. “This year, you had to submit your scores on a weekly basis during the state competition. Our team is very competitive. We have placed before, but we haven’t qualified in a couple years for the final. We had a good group.”
