Northland Lanes in Lima was the setting for the Lady Tigers of Versailles going up against the Lady Redskins of Wapakoneta. “Wapak is not quite as strong as in years past, but this should still be a tough match for the girls,” said Coach Phlipot. Versailles jumped to an 84 pin lead after game 1 by rolling and 815 to Wapak’s 731. The second game also went to Versailles 837-743. 4 out of the 5 Baker Games went to the Lady Tigers, 157-132, 179-133, 120-150, 171-120 and 160-130. The total score was 2,439 to 2,139.
