KANSAS CITY — Chanute sophomore Jett Cosby posted a career-first 700 series to lead the Blue Comet boys to a victory over Ottawa in a meet hosted by Kansas City-Sumner Academy at KC Bowl.
Cosby’s tournament-high series — by over 120 pins — helped Chanute get past Ottawa by 61 pins. That 714 marked the sophomore’s highest three-game series in his career.
“It is so important to have a couple of big games in this format to be able to use their scores,” Chanute head coach Roy McCoy said. “Our top-four must beat their top-four. We tend to use a score from everyone and other teams, maybe just four of their six bowlers’ scores.”
A much-stronger Ottawa team left the Chanute girls in second place. Senior Zoey Turner led the squad with a 409 series.
“Honestly I am most proud of the girls and their improvement,” McCoy said. “All of these girls just keep working. No real big scores, but they’re just staying steady.”
