Kennedy had to work overtime to finally beat Linn-Mar Friday afternoon in a Mississippi Valley Conference girls bowling meet at Cedar Rapids Bowling Center.
The score was tied, 2625-2625, at the end of regulation, so an extra Baker round game was rolled. Each of the five bowlers on each team rolled a pair of frames in alternate fashion. The meet was still up for grabs after Kennedy's Paige Ermer left a 7-10 split in her final frame. Linn-Mar's Stacey Schwarzenstein needed two strikes, plus pins on a third ball, to give the Lions the victory. She knocked down all but the 10 pin and Kennedy escaped with a 15-pin victory.
Ermer led the Cougars (5-1, 5-1 MVC) with a 206 high game and 403 high series. Schwarzenstein topped all bowlers with games of 222 and 234 for a 456 series. Linn-Mar is 3-3, 3-3.
Both teams are in Saturday's Prairie Baker Invitational at Lancer Lanes.
