Highest 1A Qualifier Is Davis County

Olivia Steines of Camanche had the highest individual game total with a 680.

Clarke’s qualification was extra special, as the team and community lost the bowling alley in town recently. Equipment for the team was stored at the lanes and destroyed in the fire.

The 1A individual and 2A team tournament takes place on Tuesday, February 10, as 2A individual and 3A team goes down on Wednesday, February 11. The final day will feature 3A individual and 1A team tournament action.
