Ayella Ordonez of Salina South was chosen as The Alley Bowler of the Month for September. Ordonez’s average last season was 150, with a high game of 215, and high series 549.
“My expectations for the upcoming season is that hopefully we’re all able to come together as one team and get good practice in, so we can win our first meet and hopefully have great scores,” Ordonez said. “And individual goal of mine that I’d like to accomplish is to get my average up during season, and I’d also like it if I could place at all tournaments.”
Ordonez said she and her team have a
unique bond.
“A strength that I have as a teammate is definitely the relationship that I have with the team,” Ordonez said. “We can all come together and keep everyone’s mood up.”
Addressing her weaknesses has been something Ordonez has worked on for the upcoming season.
“A weakness that I have is not being a good communicator,” Ordonez said. “Sometimes I get too in my head, and I don’t communicate with the team. But I’m working on talking to the team and my coach when I’m frustrated with my game.”
