OLSH Girls Bowling Performs well in Team Regionals, finished 11th in best showing since 2013!

The OLSH Girls Bowling Team competed in the 2025 Western PA Regional Championships for the first time since 2020 and solidified themselves as one of the best teams in the WPIBL, placing 11th place in a competitive field. The 11th place finish was the team's best ranking since an 8th place finish in 2013.

The girls placed 12th after Three Rounds of Bowling and improved their ranking thanks to strong Baker Game play, improving one spot in the standings to finish just outside the top 10 after finishing the Regular Season at 10-0.

Junior Katie McCullough led the way for the Lady Chargers with a 440 series with the top team score of 170. Junior Chloe Goodwin continued her successful second half of the year with a 401 series and a top score of 145.
