The boys bowling team began their season with a hot start. The team won their first three games of the season against Belen, Braddock, and Hialeah Education Academy by scores of 5-2, 7-0, and 5-2.

Despite their undefeated start, the team lost to reigning state-champion Miami Christian in back-to-back matches by a score of 7-0 each time.

“Even though we won our first three games and had a lot of momentum, we saw how good we had to be to talk about winning a state championship after playing Miami Christian,” said senior Antonio Mauri.

The team then got back to winning ways, defeating Schoolhouse Prep and Coral Reef 5-2 in each game. They then defeated Coral Park two games to one on Oct. 20. Seniors Antonio Mauri and Matthew Kirsner played a major role in their victory. Despite his key performance in the win, Mauri missed a spare at the end of the game to sweep their opponents.

The team had high hopes heading into the district tournament on Oct. 25 at Bird Bowl. However, they left disappointed as they finished eighth out of twelfth at the district tournament, which ended their season.
