Also returning from last year, Tyler Oboy and Gabriel Kasper are two sophomores to look out for. Highland has a new bowling coach this season in Brian Esterle. Brian has over 35 years of bowling behind him and has been bowling since he went to Highland himself. He was happy to be behind the creation of the Highland team when his son was a freshman, since Highland didn’t have a bowling team when Brian attended. He’s also looking forward to adding more tournaments for the team to compete in this year, including the Norton Panther Challenge, Ashland Baker Bash and the Copley Tomahawk Invitational.
