Karyn was very
excited, of course, when she bowled her 300 game. Her husband
usually doesn’t come and watch her bowl but he surprised her
that night and showed up. “It was nice for him to be there and
support me” she said.
She was motivated by
watching Kaitlyn Young bowl for the Sycamore High School team
as they bowled against DeKalb and used Kaitlyn for her
strength. After being a member of the DHS bowling team
herself, she has become one of their most loyal fans! You can
see her at most meets cheering them on.
One of the funniest
comments that Karyn made was that she didn’t know that she
could jump that high. …..perhaps we should ask Mike!!!
