From the Sideline
“Abbie Harris bowled a 219 and 213 last week in helping TJHS stay unbeaten in the NPSL,” Raider coach Joseph Townsend said. “Her leadership and, obviously, her scores helped us win our match. Abbie bowls in the lead-off position, so she truly sets the tone for our team. Without question, she is the emotional backbone of our team.”
