The FM men's bowling team completed their 2018 season with a respectable showing at NJCAA Nationals held in Buffalo this past weekend.  The Raiders finished 10th out of 20 teams. 

"Conditions at Regionals and Nationals are very demanding. They bowl on an oil pattern that challenges the very best bowlers in the country and while it took a while for some to figure it, most of our bowlers did the best they could", commented Coach Tom Rathbun. "With five of six bowlers eligible to return on both teams next year, I hope they gained some valuable experience that will pay off". 

The Raiders saw the following high scores; Richard Taylor 214, Bryan Green 212, Charlie Cusano 200, Brandon Little 197, Robert Ward 168, and David Servello with a 164.

This was the final competition for second year student-athlete and Captain Charlie Cusano.  "He has been with us since the beginning of this program and has provided leadership and guidance that can't be calculated. He stayed with the program while others did not and Charlie will be sorely missed. I thank him for his contribution, I would wish him the best of luck, but it's not necessary, I know how successful he will be as he moves on and becomes a fine adult role model", said Coach Rathbun.
