Try as she might, Linn-Mar’s Mykaela Brandt could not beat the Xavier girls Friday.
She came close, single-handedly bringing her team back from a runaway to within three points late in the third quarter.
But then the music died for the visiting Lions.
The Saints marched off a 20-2 run over a seven-minute period, waltzing down the stretch to a 52-37 victory.
The Linn-Mar Lions had a few things to prove when the basketball season began in November.
Matt Lassen had to prove he was fully recovered from a serious head injury and not afraid of contact around the basket.
Jimmy Roth had to prove he could fit seemlessly onto the team and be a leader after being suspended for the first four games of the season.
Linn-Mar built a 53-pin lead in the first round and held on to beat Xavier, 3080-3012, Friday in boys bowling at May City Bowl.
Xavier's Zach Klimesh had high game (236) and series (442).
Justin Wyant had high game for Linn-Mar with a 232. Dreyson Robe had high series with a 434, followed closely by Trent Jochimsen's 431.
Xavier built a 95-pin lead in the first round and held on to beat Linn-Mar, 2430-2347, Friday in girls bowling at May City Bowl.
Tara Trcka had the line for the Saints rolling games of 191 and 213 for a team-high 404 series. Abbey Konzen was close behind with a 211 high game and 387 series.
McKenzie Routhe was on fire for Linn-Mar, firing games of 206 and 278 for a 484 series.
Clint Lembeck, Nick Drahozal and Sean Ickes had pins that led Xavier to a 46-27 win over Iowa City High Thursday night in prep wrestling at Xavier.
The Saints were beaten by Dubuque Senior, 39-31.
Xavier also got a major decision from Jerry Duball and picked up four forfeit wins against City High.
Camden Chicchelly and Michael Maher had pins against Dubuque Senior, and Lembeck had a technical fall. Duball also won by decision.
