Bowling

Moses Lake sweeps Kennewick

Kennewick - Pulling off a sweep in bowling is a tough accomplishment, said Moses Lake bowling head coach Billy Brice.

Against the No. 2 team in the league, the Moses Lake bowling team pulled off a 4-0 win against Kennewick. While Berlyn Davis put out a 176 and 181 respectively, it was Melissa Threadgill's 171 in the first game and 166 in the second that helped lock up the victory for Moses Lake.

Brice said Threadgill opened the first game with three straight open frames before rebounding for a 171 in the game.

In the first Baker game, Moses Lake jumped on Kennewick with a 192-169 win. Then after two open frames in the second game, the Chiefs bowled three straight strikes en route to a 171-151 win.

"I will take the win, but it wasn't that pretty," Brice said.
