Lady Red Hawks crush Heritage while Red Hawks fall in first official bowling match

Creek Wood High School competed in its first TSSAA bowling match last week with the Lady Red Hawks winning big and the Red Hawks falling in a close contest. The new teams at Creek Wood played their first match at Thunder Alley against District 14 opponent White House-Heritage High School. A sanctioned high school bowling match consists of three games featuring six competitors from each school. Points are awarded for individual head-to-head wins, most pins during each game and most pins in the series for a possible total of 27 points. The Lady Red Hawks dropped only three of 18 matches against Heritage in winning 24-3. Creek Wood won five of six games in the first match, swept all six in the second and went 4-2 in the third, also winning all the points for pinfalls. The boys took four of six games in the first set and won on pins for a 6-2 lead, but saw Heritage battle back to split the second set and win the pinfall points, then take five games in the third set to pull out a 17-10 win over the Red Hawks. Creek Wood will host its second match of its first season Thursday when Jo Byrns visits Thunder Alley.
