Following a long winter season, the Northside College Prep women’s bowling team clinched the Green North Division title for the first time in January. This was Ms. Cirrincione’s (Physical Education) second year coaching.

The Mustangs showcased their skill throughout the season, culminating in an impressive third-place finish overall in the conference. Coach Cirrincione noted that, as far as she could remember, “It had been at least a decade since the girls were this successful,” she was glad to have watched over the team again this year.

Seniors Emily Rodriguez (Adv. 406) and Ginny Driscoll (Adv. 403) led the Mustangs. Their performances not only contributed significantly to the team’s divisional success but also earned them spots in the regional and sectional competitions. Their achievements highlight the team’s depth of talent and dedication, setting a high standard for current and future members.

Rodriguez commented that she was “proud to be a part of this divisional win,” and even with her personal accomplishments, felt “she still had a lot she wanted to improve on.” She hopes to continue bowling for fun past high school, although she doesn’t plan to pursue it at a collegiate athletics level. She also reflected that “[she’ll] miss having Thursday practices and spending time with the team” but hopes that “future bowlers can learn from the example [they’ve] set” and continue on the positive culture.

The victory in the Green North Division is a testament to the team’s hard work and camaraderie over their 8-game regular season. It marks a milestone in Northside College Prep’s history, especially during the school’s 25th anniversary, and lays a solid foundation for future success.

The school community is excited and proud and looks forward to what the Mustangs will achieve next. Congratulations to the team and Coach Cirrincione on this outstanding achievement!
