It’s the girls finishing up at state bowling today at Northrock Lanes.
But how about how those area boys did on Thursday? Collegiate freshman Jack Stewart won the individual title for 5-1A, while South’s William Paul won for 6A. Maize won the boys, while Goddard took second. Bishop Carroll was fourth in 5-1A.
Congrats to all.

Brooks Seeley is passing this along: Bishop Carroll boys won their 5-1A bowling regional, while Augusta finished second.
Girls bowling is about to start.
Any other results? Feel free to share.

Here’s the All-State bowling teams, as announced by the Kansas Bowling Coaches Association.

How about those area bowling teams? My goodness. The boys followed the girls on Saturday, and Bishop Carroll gets the 5-1A state title, while Newton finished fourth, McPherson fifth and El Dorado sixth. Andover was eighth.
The area also had three of the top four individual bowlers and four of the top six.
In 6A it was no different as Goddard won the title, Heights took second, Maize was third, Derby sixth. The Wichita area also had the top two individuals and three of the top four.
Impressive.

No doubt about it, this area rules bowling. Bishop Carroll girls won 5A on Friday, Maize won 6A and North’s Nesa Hubbard won the individual title, one of six area kids in the top nine and one of three in the top four. North finished second and Heights finished fourth.
Carroll had two in the top six and there were four in the top 10 (five if we include McPherson, which might be a stretch for Wichita area).
Pretty impressive. Now will the boys do the same today?

10:20 p.m. — All right, I’m heading out of Northwest High. I’ll do a recap later this evening, once the scores list gets a little more updated. Certainly don’t want to miss any winners at this point.
Just for those checking in quickly. Goddard boys win, Heights boys win, Southeast boys win, Carroll girls win. All are going to state.
Were you at a game? Feel free to post. I’m at Derby Saturday night if anyone’s interested in outing themselves on camera. Or just come by to say hi.

The Heights boys finished out the regular season at 19-1 and finished 16-0 in the City League with its win over South. It’s a feat that hasn’t been accomplished since 1994-95 when South did it. The Heights girls also got a win, giving them a share of the City League title with Bishop Carroll.

Wrestling is the story of the week, but we’ve got sub-state bowling on Saturday and some basketball. Sub-state pairings come out for 4A, 3A, 2A basketball on Wednesday. 1A regionals are this week. Basketball league titles will be decided this week.
So here we go.

I don’t have all the results — I’m out at the Class 6A wrestling regional at Heights — but heard that the Heights boys and girls won the CL tournaments, and Heights had the individual girls winner.
Someone commented on another post that the Buhler boys and girls won their AV-CTL division.

This is the last night of the regular season for most teams in Class 1A. And we’ve only got two games left for the smaller classes, usually three for the bigger.
Here’s a look at tonight’s games, where the most interesting game is, um, um, um:
