The Huntley boys bowling team never gave up and always put in their best effort.

“We have to make sure the bowlers put their best foot forward no matter what the circumstance is. If we are behind, we are still pushing and still trying to bowl the best that we can go. Also just not quitting on your team more than anything is a huge help,” coach Weigand said.

This team has had a lot of success on their season so far and they hope to continue what they have going.

“This year so far we are 7-2 in our one on one meets. We have taken either positions for individuals or for series at our invites showing we have done well this year, so I am anticipating more success and more accomplishments on a team level as well as on a personal level,” coach Weigand said.

Huntley has improved to 7-2 on the season hoping for more continuous success to come.

The Huntley boys bowling team will have their next meet against Belvidere on Dec. 12.
