Ellison 226 and Schultz 223 claimed two of the top high-games of the event.
"On the girls side let's just say 'statement made'". From start to finish they worked together as a team and it paid off in a big way. The lady Chargers left the Ancilla College Invitational Champions winning their first conference Invitational, said assistant coach, Tim Fraser.
Ancilla is on the road this weekend with three days of competition. Friday they will be in Muskegon, Michigan for the Great lakes Classic and Saturday and Sunday they will compete in the Roto Grip Baker Tournament.
