Assistant coach Tom Richardson works with Xiao Yai, 18, left, Aliya Kamaletdinova, 17, Gabby Garcia, 15, and Xochitl Garcia, 16, during practice. "We're trying to coach the girls to understand the principles and basics of bowling and adapt that to their own personal style," says head coach Oscar Garnica. "And the basics is just literally how to hold a bowling ball," says Richardson. "A lot of these girls literally don't know how to hold a bowling ball...we've literally taken girls from this season that were gutter to gutter -- they threw more gutters than they knocked down pins -- and worked them up to varsity this year."
