MINSTER — The Wapakoneta boys and girls bowling teams cruised to victory Saturday in Minster.

Despite a 34-point performance from senior guard Kaylee Patton, the Waynesfield-Goshen Tigers fell to the Bellefontaine Chieftains in the championship game of the Wapak Tip-Off Tournament, 69-62.
The Bellefontaine Chieftains jumped out to an early first quarter lead, and maintained it throughout the game.
Bellefontaine’s Brenda Johnson scored 20 points for the Chieftains, leading them to victory in the game, and victory in the Tip-Off Tournament.
BOTKINS — The Botkins Lady Trojans opened their season Saturday night with a 68-39 victory over the Parkway Panthers.
The Lady Trojans came out on fire to sprint to an 8-0 lead in the first two minutes of play. They continued to build their lead on the shoulders of senior guard Casie Bergman who hit four 3-pointers in the first eight minutes of the game to give Botkins a 23-7 lead after the first quarter.
In the consolation game of the Tip-Off Tournament at Wapakoneta High School, the Redskins found victory over Troy High school, 41-38.
Scoring was streaky to say the least in this contest. These two teams were both coming off tough losses from the night before, and Wapakoneta varsity coach Rusty Allen said there was a combination of fatigue and caution that led to the low scoring affair.
