Sequim’s Wolves kicked off the winter sports season with the toughest opponent they could schedule: the state champs from Bremerton.
Though the Knights topped Sequim 5-2 in Bremerton on Nov. 12, Sequim racked up its highest scoring game in two years in knocking off the Knights 740-644 in the first game. Bremerton swept game two (738-578) and swept the Baker-format games.
“We came out swinging,” Sequim coach Randy Perry said.
Dakota Henderson led the way for Sequim with a two-game total of 326 pins, a match high. Her 211 mark in the first game was a personal best. Amanda Campbell had a team-high 158-pin finish in game two and totaled 313 for the match. Kaitlyn Jackson was third on the team with 261 pins.
“Not a bad way to start considering we have not had a practice yet,” Perry said.
Megan Wittenberg led Bremerton with a 324-pin match.
Sequim (1-1) tallied its first win on the season with a 7-0 whitewashing of North Mason on Nov. 13, besting the Bulldogs on the Wolves’ “home” venue at Laurel Lanes in Port Angeles. No details were available at press time.
The Wolves were scheduled to take on Klahowya on Nov. 18. Sequim is at North Mason on Nov. 25.
