It takes some pinpoint accuracy to become a great bowler.
Hailie Savoie bowled at a high level at Teurlings Catholic with her dad Tony Savoie as the Head Coach.
The father and daughter pair worked well with each other.
“She knew that I was right about a lot of things when it comes to bowling,” said Tony Savoie.”I did learn how to be patient working with her, so it balanced us out.”
Hailie finished as runner-up in her junior year of high school which was enough for her to earn a scholarship to attend Lincoln Memorial University.
“It was a fun four years,” said Hailie Savoie.” I did bowl in school but mainly cheered my team on.”
The thought of being a professional bowler wasn’t in her plans, but she found something she would enjoy as a career.
“Professional bowlers do not get paid well,” said Hailie Sovoie. ” I enjoyed the sport, but I'd rather partake in the healthcare side of things.”
She has two years left in medical school and in a few weeks, she will be getting her white coat.
She said that this is like bowling a perfect game.
“During my interview process they would ask how I work in a team setting”, said Hailie Savoie.”I would always talk about bowling because it’s the best example. I enjoyed my time bowling and it helped me become the person I am today.”
