In the match against Avon on Monday, January 13th, North Ridgeville's Jakob Holland added his name into the NSBC record books by throwing a perfect 300 game at AMF North Ridgeville. He becomes the first NSBC bowler to be perfect this season and the 17th all-time.

For Jakob, a Division 1 state qualifier last year, this is his second ever perfect game but his first in an Ohio High School Athletic Association-sanctioned match. He also had a 300 last September at the Rebman Youth Shootout. Congrats to Jakob on his achievement!

In the match between Open Door CS and Keystone on Monday, December 2nd, Open Door's Gabriella Riba had an amazing match, barely coming up short on a perfect game (298) to go with an opening 236 to set a new conference record series of 534!

Congrats to Gabriella Riba for this awesome accomplishment!
