2018-2019 Season Recap: In terms of success, our varsity bowling team has had an historic winter, by all accounts! Our all-girls team bowls in a Boys/Co-Ed League in our conference, and has been steadily gaining traction in its past few seasons. 2018-2019 marks our first winning season, with a record of 12-6, since the program's inception. A driving force behind the team's success was Class of 2019, Bryonna Richburg, who held a 179 average. Richburg had been a leader on the team for the past four years, earning honors such as First Team All-County for three of her four years (Freshman/Junior/Senior).

The team competed in the Passaic County Tournament on Friday, January 18th at Parkway Lanes of Elmwood Park. Our Blue Jays are the 2018-2019 Passaic County Girls Bowling Champions! We bowled a 2,172 to eliminate tournament favorites such as PCTI and Wayne Valley, who had a 5-year title streak!

This is the First County Championship in school history. And the honors did not stop at a County title! Two of our bowlers also received individual honors: Class of 2020, Audrey McMillin came in Second Place for highest game with a score of 198, and Class of 2019, Alleyna Jean-Philippe came in Third Place for highest series with a 484.

Our team also attended the State Tournament on February 2nd and came in 3rd place in our division.
