Prospect New Year Invite, 6th out of 28 teams at the Reavis Rock-n-Roll Invite and 3rd at Sectionals, missing a repeat trip to the State Tourney by six pins. 

The girls posted some very high scores this season, setting six team State records along with Samantha Johnsen shooting 280, which is an individual state record.  They bowled their highest two series during the sectional meet...2991 and 2979 for a 5970 total.  This total was the 5th highest shot in the state at any Sectional, however, due to the strength of the sectional, the team did not advance.  Gina Daffron advanced to State as an individual with a strong 1290 total (215 average).
