Prairie girls bowl them over
MARSHALLTOWN – High school bowling tournaments usually don’t feature cheerleaders.
But the iconic Totem Bowl in Marshalltown on Tuesday was nearly as raucous as any Friday night gym as former Prairie bowler Nick Blood and a bunch of his buddies were on hand to cheer on this year’s record-setting girls team.
With a different chant for each of the six girls, they celebrated every made split and especially every strike. And by the end of the night the boys were hoarse as the Prairie girls bowled over the four-team field and easily danced their way into the state tournament next week in Des Moines.
With an unbeaten record and the highest team average in the state by far, the Prairie girls will be the team to beat.
