It’s no secret the Pinelands Regional girls bowling team competes in a really tough division. With Lacey, Manchester and Donovan Catholic often bringing excellent squads to Ocean Lanes for each match, the Shore Conference South B division is no joke.

Unfortunately, the Wildcats are not going to get much of a break again this season, especially after losing their top two bowlers – Shea Balmann and Bonnie Burton, whose averages combined for some 330 pins – from last year to graduation.
