Bowling is fastest-growing sport in Iowa

Mon - 03 Jan Written by Tom Fruehling

Too bad high school letter jackets are no longer in vogue.

Maybe then the newest group of prep letter winners would get more recognition.

Right now, high school bowling is mostly a sport followed by the bowlers themselves, their family members and few fans.

But that doesn’t mean it’s not popular.

“It is,” says Linn-Mar head boys coach Andy Diercks, “the fastest-growing high school and collegiate sport in the country.

“It’s had double-digit growth in terms of numbers in the past five or six years. And it just keeps growing.”

As it turns out, Eastern Iowa – more specifically, the Cedar Rapids and Marion Metro area – is the hotbed of prep bowling.
