Joseph Koscianski is a fifteen year old Welding sophomore from the New Castle School District who has been bowling since the age of five and training since the age of six. For the last two years, Joey, as his friends call him, has been trying his best to better himself in bowling, and we celebrate him in this article!
His training over the years hasn’t been for nothing. Joey has become an accomplished bowler; typically averaging one-hundred sixty, his top score he ever earned was a two-hundred twenty five and he once bowled seven strikes in a row! Recently, he competed in league tournaments; over the last seven months, Joseph won his bid to compete in a three-day state competition against twenty-seven others in his age group.
During this competition among the best of the best in the state, Joey scored a four-hundred twenty-seven. Though he placed sixteenth place in his division, he says, “I accept failure, everyone fails at some point in their life, but I don’t accept not trying. I will train hard this coming year, and will do better next year.” His positive attitude rolls a strike in our hearts!
Joey -- you're a winner in our eyes! Keep up the great work!
