Oswego wrapped up a busy week with four straight competitions between Monday and Thursday.  The week kicked off at Parkside Lanes with senior night on Monday, followed by the crosstown against Oswego East on Tuesday.  Then the team traveled to Town and Country Lanes in Joliet to take on Plainfield South on Wednesday before returning home to Parkside Lanes on Thursday against Joliet Central.  Both the Panther varsity and JV squads went undefeated on the week.  The varsity team improved their record to 8-2 while Oswego’s JV team improved to 9-1 on the season.

The varsity team averaged 188 across the four days of competition and it was a total team effort as each night saw a different Panther bowler lead the team in scoring.  Over the four-day stretch of competitions, Oswego won 11 out of the 12 games they played.  The team capped off the week with their best performance of the season against Joliet Central as they rolled team scores of 985, 1,001, and 993 and finished the series just 21 pins shy of averaging 200 as a team (2,979 series). The team reached a milestone in game two as they shot their first team game score over one-thousand on the season.

On Monday against West Aurora, sophomore Katelyn Watson led the Panthers with a 621 series (207 average) that included games of 201, 181, and 237.  On Tuesday, sophomore Lani Breedlove had a slow start in game one but turned it around in game two and finished the night as the high bowler for OHS with a 624 series (208 average) on games of 153, 235, and 236.

The Panthers went on the road on Wednesday and it was a great trip for senior Lily Ratledge who led the team with a 575 series (192 average) that included games of 184, 210, and 181.  To cap off the busy week of competition, senior captain Savanna Jourdan rolled games of 166, 227, and 238 to lead the Panthers with a series of 631 (210 average).
