WDHS state bowling champion

INTERVIEW CONDUCTED BY DEMAURI NEEALY

Congratulations to our very own Lisa Schroeder—the first freshman in Western Dubuque history to win state bowling. I interviewed Lisa to find out more about her experiences in making it to state. My first question was: “What made you want to start bowling?”

Lisa Schroeder has been bowling for eleven years. Lisa became interested in bowling from watching her older brothers bowl. She started off with league bowling; she tried it for the first time and has been bowling ever since. League bowling is different from bowling at school because it isn’t as loud; everyone works more as a team, whereas, in bowling at school, it’s more competitive and takes more practice.  It had to feel great becoming a champion in only her first year in high school, and I’m sure everyone wants to know whether Lisa will continue bowling next year. Well, yes, she will, and she’s excited about meeting new people.  She said, “We’ll lose a lot of good bowlers, but we’ll also gain a lot of good bowlers, so it’ll be a pretty good year!” It was my pleasure to interview the first freshman champion of Western Dubuque, and I wish her the best of luck for next year. Keep up the good work, Lisa!
