2004/2005 Metro League and Playoff Summary
The 2004/2005 Metro High School bowling Coaches Association League season came to an end
on the weekend of 12 & 13 February 2005. The League Playoffs were held at Leopard Lanes in

West Lanes, Cougar Lanes Mockingbird Lanes and Leopard Lanes before the final shootout at
Leopard Lanes. Varsity teams competed on Saturday, 12 February and Junior Varsity on Sunday,

A total of $3625.00 in scholarships was awarded to the Metro Playoff bowlers from DARMCO
Corp. of McDonalds. This is the sixth year this business has supported the Metro High School
Bowling Coaches Association. It has donated $18,000 to area bowlers in those six years and
has agreed to continue its support for the next four years. This is a business that believes
in giving back to the community and in area youth activities. The MHSBCA thanks the DARMCO
Corp. for its support.
The MHSBCA would like to thank the four bowling centers that hosted the league this past
season and all of the centers that allowed the bowlers and Programs to practice in their
centers. These bowlers are the future on bowling. We would also like to thank the schools,
which have allowed the Bowling Programs to grow. A number of schools have long been able to
award a Club or Varsity letter to the Bowlers and more and more area schools are beginning
to do the same thing. Bowling allows their students to represent the school in a very
positive manner.
A complete listing of League, Playoff and Individual information can be found at our
Website, www.omhsb.org as well as a slideshow of the Playoffs. To everyone who helped at the
Playoffs, the coaches, parents and bowlers who put in their time, have a safe summer and we
hope to see you next season.
