QUESTION
4: How are the high school bowling scoring records collected?
ANSWER:
Research, lots and lots of research. Checking and re-checking
is part of what goes into the creation of information
and/or records database. Scouring the internet, individually
contacting each state accociation by phone and/or e-mail,
are just examples how these scoring records have been
collected.
However,
the best way for these high school scoring records to
updated is for the score to submitted directly to the

score, name of bowler, date, name of school, county and
state to worldmike@aol.com.

QUESTION
6: Why do some states have more scoring records than others?
ANSWER:
Each state's high school bowling program is unique. Some
states play more games during the regular season matches
or post-season than other states.
Here
is an example where a state may have more scoring records.
Any team or individual that performs well during the U.S.
High School Bowling National Championships, scores rolled
during the long format at 'Nationals' may be the only
time those bowlers play that many games in an event; which
allows those states to have more scoring records..
