Mount Greylock, Drury Bowlers to Battle for Top Spot in League Standings

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. -- Reece Gillette rolled a 224 on Tuesday at Greylock Bowl & Golf to lead the Mount Greylock Mounties to a dominating win that allowed them to take a one-point edge atop the Berkshire County League standings.

 

The Mounties defeated Mount Everett, 29-2, and the 27-point differential was enough to give Mount Greylock one more point than Drury this season. The Blue Devils went into the week with a narrow lead and won their match, 22-9, over Monument Mountain, behind a 398 series from Zach Yeaton.

 

The day's top series belonged to Pittsfield's A.J. Moore, who rolled a 430 series to lead the Generals to a 27-4 win over the Lee Black squad.

 

Tuesday's best game was rolled by Austin Davine of McCann Tech as the Hornets defeated Lee, 29-2, to solidify their hold on third place in the league.

 

Tuesday's other match was a 16-15 barnburner won by Wahconah over Taconic. Wahconah's Amber Wood helped her team's cause with the best game (217) and best series (387) recorded by a girl.

 

The league is off until Jan. 20, when it rolls into Great Barrington to compete at Cove Lanes, when first-place Mount Greylock will face second-place Drury.
