MUSKEGON – Friday was a storybook ending for Ravenna’s Emma Herremans.
The Bulldogs’ lone senior bowler helped secure the program’s first Finals team championship.
Ravenna went the distance with Bad Axe in the deciding match, even trailing 2-1 before winning the final two games 172-150 and 186-179 to clinch.
“It feels amazing. I have to take a pause to just take everything in,” said Herremans.
Ravenna’s championship capped off an undefeated season and was the first Finals title for the school in any sport other than football.
“We just sat there, and our hearts were racing the entire time,” said Ravenna coach Jason Nutt.
En route to the championship, the top-seeded Bulldogs defeated No. 8 seed Jackson Lumen Christi and No. 5 seed Jonesville.
Bracket play featured multiple seeding upsets with No. 7 Homer sweeping second seed Burton Atherton in three games in a quarterfinal. Fifth seed Jonesville defeated No. 4 seed Allen Park Cabrini during the same round.
Ravenna posted the top score during qualifying, 2,899 pins, to outpace the field by 164.
After reaching the quarterfinals in 2024 and then winning the championship in 2025, Ravenna figures to assert itself as a statewide presence for years to come. Looking to the future, Nutt’s expectation for his program is one of optimism.
“It’s good to get one. We should continue to get strong,” he said.
