ROCHELLE — The Hubs came close to sending their three senior bowlers off with a victory when Rochelle hosted Streator for its Senior Night match at T-Byrd Lanes on Thursday. Despite winning the third game by nearly 20 pins, the Hubs were unable to recover from their early deficit, falling 2,892-2,814 and finishing the regular season with a 1-12 overall record. Seniors Nick Jensen, Jordan Dobberstein and Logan Ortega were honored before the match.
"The seniors have made big improvements this season," head coach Jim Lyles said. "Nick and Jordan were both first-year members of the team and they improved throughout the whole season. Logan's been fairly consistent this season even though he struggled a little bit this evening."
Collin Vissering fired 194 and Brady Grabowski added 175 in Streator's 923-887 win over Rochelle in the first game. Sophomore Devansh Patel rolled 179 for the Hubs, while John Henson added 165. Grabowski's 194 and Ashton King's 190 propelled the Bulldogs to a 992-935 victory in the second game despite Henson's 181 for Rochelle.
Rochelle's second-pair trio of Dobberstein, Patel and Henson led the Hubs over Streator by a score of 995-977 in the final game on Thursday. Patel fired 189 to finish with a team-high 513 series, with Henson adding 185 for a 511 series and Dobberstein recording 185 for a 491 series. King scored 219 for the Bulldogs and Grabowski totaled 179 to end the night with a 548 series.
