The Wayland girls’ varsity bowling team is rated No. 8 in the state in the latest coaches’ poll for Division 2.
The Lady Wildcats a year ago placed 11th as a team in the state tournament and two individual rollers, Kadence Bottrall and Bella Harnish, came within a whisker of facing each other for the state championship. Harnish this year is bowling for Davenport University.
Wayland is off to a 2-0 start for the 2022-23 season with dual match victories over Division 1 Jenison and O-K Gold Conference rival Middleville Thornapple Kellogg.
