ROSSFORD — The boys bowling squad from Galion High School was up at Interstate Lanes in Rossford on Friday, February 23 to represent the Tigers in the Ohio High School Athletic Association Division II District Boys Tournament.

Eastwood was the team champion with a score of 4,072, St. Henry was runner-up (4,017) and St. Mary’s Memorial was the final qualifying team, racking up 3,971 pins.

Aaron Stewart was the top-placer for the Galion squad, finishing 22nd with a three-games series total of 557 (181, 193 and 183). Austin Rinehart was the only other Tigers bowler to finish in the top-50 at districts, rolling games of 165, 168 and 199 for a total series of 532 and good for 33rd.

Other Galion totals from Friday’s competition were: 53. Dylan Ruth- 163, 153, 165= 481; 55. Jacob Lear- 139, 172, 162= 473; 66. AJ Randalph- 146, 150= 296 and 68. Alan Evans- 197.
