Bowling
For Burlington High School senior Liz Kramer – a recent finalist at the Wisconsin State High School Bowling Championships – March 11 was a dream come true.
Kramer, 17, threw her first-ever 300 game, bowling in the Monday Night Junior/Adult league at Towne and Country Lanes. She started with a 211 game and ended with a 200 game for her 711 series, her sixth USBC National Honor Series of the season.
“Shooting a 300 game this year was on my list of goals. I’m very happy to have reached that goal,” Kramer said.
