Senior Sajoun Jones was next with a 409. Senior Hunter Lowe ended the match with a 365, and freshman Chase Cummings rounded out the scoring with a 186.
In second place in the boys match were the McClain Tigers, led by Hunter Rumer, and in third place were the Chillicothe Cavaliers, led by Dalton Chaney.
"For the first match of the season, I was very happy with the boys,” Hillsboro coach Shane Ison said. “They showed great promise for this upcoming season.”

"We were without a couple of key players last night,” Coach Jeff Miller said. “However, it just shows how deep we really are when you have players coming off the bench, never competing before, shooting 50 pins better from one game to the next. It gives you an idea of what your team is really all about.
"We did well last year but came up short at districts. This year, our team is more experienced, and they are hungry for more, so we expect great things.”
