Ferguson bowling is on a roll again. Reagan volleyball beats Miami Beach. Plus football & more
The Ferguson girls’ and boys’ bowling teams are undefeated.
Each group is 5-0.
Recently, the Ferguson boys defeated Colonial Christian 7-0 at Bird Bowl.
High games for the Falcons: junior Joshua Munoz 220; sophomore Isaiah Lacayo 175; junior Anthony Marin 160; senior Ethan Aguililla 155. Munoz had a high series of 545.
Colonial Christian’s Giovanni Morales had a high game 167 and high series 418.
The Ferguson girls also beat Colonial Christian 7-0.
Senior Nicole Marin had a high game 171, and sophomore Karla Portillo had a high series 372 to lead the way.
Prior, the boys’ and girls’ teams beat Goleman, Cutler Bay, COHEA, and Palmetto.
Ferguson’s biggest regular season challenge will be Columbus for the boys and Braddock for the girls.
The boys’ team was a state qualifier last season.
Ferguson coach Marcela Y. Del Rosario said: “The team is strong this season. We have five starters that on any given day will hit a 200+. I have four seniors, two juniors, one sophomore and one freshman, who already had a high game of 253, and our alternates -- two freshmen and one sophomore -- will be ready for next season to join in the rotation.”
Del Rosario has been coaching Ferguson bowling since 2011.
The girls have qualified for state as a team or as individuals since 2012.
The girls also have a strong team this season.
Del Rosario said: “I have four seniors, two juniors and one sophomore. I have the girls in a 7-player rotation because they are all even. I have three freshmen who will come into the rotation next year, when my four seniors graduate.”
The present of Ferguson bowling is very good, and the future looks bright, too.
