Langworthy feels the team did well overall but could have improved.

“I wish we could have finished with a better record,” Langworthy said. “But I think we’re prepared to go to regionals and states. Overall, we get the job done.”

The Hornets will face off individually in the Metro League’s Singles Tournament at Owosso’s Capitol Bowl on Saturday, Feb. 16, and will participate on Sunday, Feb. 17, in a tune-up match for their regional.

Langworthy expects some Kearsley bowlers to succeed at both events.

“I think we’re going to have people that perform well and just prepare for regionals,” Langworthy said.
