Revenge was on the minds of the Dothan girls bowling team Monday.
A month ago, the Wolves fell to city rival Houston Academy in a late surge by 26 pins.
“I thought the two teams did really well,” Dothan head coach Brianne Kent said. “The girls really wanted to get that win going into that tournament on Wednesday, so they were excited that they were able to pull it out, especially since the first time we bowled HA, we didn’t bowl very well. They were excited for that comeback against them.
“The girls team has lost to them ever time since I have been,” said Ella Wood, a second-year bowling for the Wolves. “We lost to them both times last year, so it was a big deal for us to beat them. We love to beat HA. We have friends that go to HA and it is fun competition.” “We had a good energy,” Wood said. “When anybody got down, we kept lifting each other up and being positive. Also we had fun. We always play our best when we are having fun.
Karabin and Kelsey Peaden paced the attack with 169 and 163, scores. Both totals were season-high marks for the two. Ellie Smith followed a 154, Wood had a 145 and Karlee Kirkland added a 115.Dothan kept the momentum going with a strong 161 in the opening Baker series to extend the margin to over 300 points. Younger players bowled the final two Baker sets, finishing with a 116 and 114, respectively.
During the traditional format, Cade Whittaker led Dothan with a 165. Paden Wood followed with a 158 and Cole Hewett had a 139. Oliver Benefield had a 121.
