“This was a good warmup match to get ready for league play which starts Tuesday, December 2, home, against Hoosic Valley. We won the first two games and then had trouble making spares in the third game and ended up losing that game by 23 pins. The team knows that we have a lot of work to do over the weeks to come, and making spares is one thing that we will have to improve on if we are to be successful,” said Coach Lang.
