Seniors girls bowlers honored
HUNTLEY — Six Huntley girls bowling team members were honored for their work as the Red Raiders hosted Dundee-Crown for senior night Jan. 22. HHS won the match, 3,202 to 2,646 pins.
Varsity squad seniors, who have led the team to a 12-0 record in dual meets are: Jana Boudreau, Prianca Waters and Erica DeBello. Junior varsity contributors are Isabella Kurash, Hannah Asemota and Adyson May. Erica DeBello became the first HHS girls bowler to commit to a Division I university when she recently chose Wichita State University.
“We have a great group of girls this season,” head coach Eric DeBello said. “All of our seniors will be missed. It has really been an honor coaching these girls the last two years. I know they will all do great things.”
Coach DeBello commented on the Class of 2025 bowlers.
“Asemota and May were first year bowlers as seniors and will be leaving better bowlers from when they started,” he said. “It has been a joy coaching these two. I only wish they had one more year. Kurash has come a long way as well. Isabella has worked hard the last two years and it has been a blast watching her grow.”
The coach mentioned the qualities for team leaders on the varsity.
About Boudreau: “She has put in a ton of work this season and she should be proud of her work ethic. Jana’s sense of humor is great when the team needs a pick me up.”
About Waters: “She is our player coach. She always tries to help the other bowlers whenever she can.”
About Erica DeBello: “Erica DeBello is our anchor and will be hard to fill that void at the end of our line up.”
