After finishing off with a 9-2 record and winning the district, Jesuit aims to win district once again and succeed as a team. On Saturday, November 12th, Jesuit Dallas opened up their season with a 15-0 win over Lake Dallas. In addition, Jesuit secured a convincing win over Irving MacArthur also shutting out MacArthur with a 15-0 win. What...
The ten 10 clean white 4.5-inch pins once standing proudly now look down the lane in fear. Across those 60 feet of synthetic planks comes rolling down a ball. The sound of the impact echoes on the lanes and rolling noise slowly increases. The pins watch as the ball closes in and BOOM! A strike! And so, with the...
10 clean white 4.5-inch pins stand proudly, the tail of the lane standing before the pit. Across 60 feet of synthetic planks is a fine coat of oil, and at the approach stands a bowler. With ball in hand and goal in mind, he is ready to win it all. And so, with the first game of the season...

They said the team couldn't keep winning. They said the team was washed. While these harsh critics said a lot of unfavorable things, they were ultimately wrong. Varsity With...
It's the 10th frame in bakers. Time for the varsity anchor to step up. Will Risinger '20 saunters up, Gucci Belt on display for all to see. He picks up his pink, fiery, Lit Bowling ball, and gives it a quick clean with his shammy. He walks up to the approach. A bead of sweat trickles down from his...
