It would prove to be a positive for both Galion teams as the boys remained undefeated, upending Crestline; 2,242-1,847. On the girls side of the alley, the Lady Tigers edged the Lady Bulldogs by a final tally of 1,362-1,320.

AJ Randolph led the way for the boys, recording the high, two-game series on the afternoon by rolling a first game score of 213 and a second of 212, totalling 425. Austin Rinehart posted games of 215 and 185, totalling an even 400-series.
