State Rep. Melanie Miller (R-City of Ashland) presented a resolution from the Ohio House of Representatives to the Ashland High School Boys Bowling Team during a recognition ceremony on the House floor. The representative invited the team to acknowledge their national championship win earlier this summer.

“We are so proud of our young men and their accomplishments representing our community, Ashland city, and the state of Ohio,” said Miller. “What many people may have thought was impossible, they made possible. They never gave up and worked together as a team and pushed each other to be the best versions of themselves.”

The Ashland Arrows defeated Centerville 603-577 to win the United States High School Bowling National Championship in a field of 51 teams from 25 states, including 11 from Ohio. The national title wasn’t the team’s only success this year; they also placed third at the Division I OHSAA Bowling Tournament in March. This is another notable accomplishment for a young team composed of just two juniors and five sophomores.

Miller invited members of the Ashland High School Boys Bowling Team and their families to tour the Statehouse grounds and be recognized during the House session.
