As the season comes to a close I think of three seniors boys who have been on this team with me for a number of years. Dan Baldini, Phil Kulis & Ricky Newton have provided a number of thrills along the way. With these boys Lansing has won back to back Section Class “C” Titles, has won all of Section IV (something no other Class “C” boys team has ever done) and set a New York State record as the First Class “C” team to ever make it to the New York State Finals.

As a team this year we had an up & down season but along the way with help from freshman Trevor Rounds & Tim Carlson along with juniors Tyler Mix, Patrick Nedrow we worked hard though the regular season. Once tournament time came around the team was there to respond tying for second @ the IAC Championship, Winning Sectional Class “C” and finishing 5th @ the Section IV State Qualifier. We had help from Harrison Herzog, Troy Hradisky along with other that will help in the future.

The Lansing Girls will not lose any to graduation this year as Lori McKane, Brooke Burke, Desi Burke and Kristi Sullivan will be back for another year. We had some first year bowlers that worked in very well as Ashley Schuster, Ashley Flemming, Katie Bland & Mary Bacorn have learned and worked hard. Winning Sectional Class “C” this year for the First time was a great thrill, as they became a part of the Lansing Varsity Bowling program that won both the boys & girls Class “C” sectional title, as this feat hasn’t been done by any other IAC team.
