Victoria ended its National Challenge tenpin bowling campaign in fifth position overall after a difficult third day in the restricted-division. The Victorian men’s and women’s teams both finished fifth overall. Ballarat tenpin bowlers Carolyn Rowan and Anette Henderson were part of the women’s team while Wayne Johnstone was a member of the men’s outfit. Johnstone is a strong chance for the All-Star team, awarded to the top six players in each division, after averaging 203 for the tournament.
