Miller Honors Ashland High School Boys Bowling Team With Resolution On House Floor For Being Named National Champions

COLUMBUS — Rep. Melanie Miller (R-City of Ashland) presented a resolution from the Ohio House Representatives to the Ashland High School Boys Bowling Team during a recognition ceremony on the House floor. The Rep. invited the team to recognize their national championship win earlier this summer.

“We are so proud of our young men and their accomplishments representing our community, Ashland City and the state of Ohio,” Miller said. “What many people may have thought was impossible, they made possible. They never gave up and worked together as a team and pushed each other to be the best versions of themselves.”

The Ashland Arrows defeated Centerville 603-577 to win the United States High School Bowling National Championship in a field of 51 teams from 25 states, including 11 from Ohio. The national title wasn’t the team’s only success this year. They also placed third at the Division I OHSAA Bowling Tournament in March, another impressive feat for a young team that consisted of just two juniors and five sophomores.

Miller invited members of the Ashland High School Boys Bowling Team and their families to tour the Statehouse grounds and be honored during the House of Representatives session.
