Davison Cardinal boys and girls varsity bowling teams have been conquering the lanes with 7 wins combined from both teams. Starting with the girls winning three consecutive championship titles since 2012, followed by a runner-up championship in 2015, and finishing it off with a championship title in 2016. In addition, Taylor Davis won an individual title in 2016 with a score of 479-410. Taylor Davis also bowled a 300 in the state finals last season. The boys have won 2 individual championships by Tylor Greene in both 2010 and 2012. With team effort the boys bowled a 300 game in the conference finals this season.

Let’s Get Pumped, it’s Game Day!
To kick off this game day week we have a Tuesday double header. DTV will be airing the Girls game live at 6 and Boys at 7:30. Our varsity basketball teams will be playing be Goodrich High school, and here’s what you can expect for the game tonight. Look’s like our lady cards are going to have a tough battle tonight with a season record of 2 and 9 going against a team that’s first in their GAC Red division with a season record of 9 and 4. The Goodrich gals aren’t going to give up a win easily, they are on a winning streak of five games, so good luck lady cards. With our boy’s on the other hand, it looks like the win will come a little easier. Davison Boys are on fire with a win streak of 7 games and a season record of 10 and 1. The Martians should be a little more worried with a season record 6 and 5. Some key players to keep an eye out for tonight will be senior Josh Moriartey, Junior Garret Goyette, and Junior Drew Flemming. These players have really stepped up their game on court with the absence sophomore Cade Coleman. Nonetheless we are looking forward to two great games tonight.
The girls game was neck and neck almost the whole game ending with a final score of 55-46. The boys game ended with a 4th quarter of foal after foal and was also a tight race ending with a score of 53-45
