Bowling

The Eagle bowling team is made up of 5th to 8th grade boys and girls. We usually field several A – teams and several B – teams to compete with our league schools in April and May. Our league uses the Baker system of bowling which is very exciting. The Baker System is a team format where more than 1 bowler comprises the score of one game. The most common would be the 5 person format where bowler 1 bowls frames 1 and 6, bowler 2 bowls frames 2 and 7, bowler 3 bowls frames 3 and 8, bowler 4 bowls frames 4 and 9 and bowler 5 (often referred to as the anchor) bowls frames 5 and 10. The order is set at the beginning of the match but can be changed after the completion of each game. It provides a lot of team camaraderie, additional pressure and an awesome close out to the night. Additionally, there must be some careful strategy in setting the line up. If you have never experienced the baker system come out and cheer on the team. It is a really exciting atmosphere – the whole bowling alley is standing room only and really loud as people cheer on their favorite team. Regular season champion A – 2024, B – 2023. Tournament Champion A – 2013, 2014, 2024, B – 2018, 2022, 2023.
