For the second time in three seasons, the Sigourney-Keota bowling team will be represented at state with Brock Alderson beating out the entire competition at Tuesday’s class 1A state qualifier at Rose Bowl in Muscatine. 

The sophomore turned some heads by winning the meet with a three-game series score of 712, besting second place by 24 pins. He continued to improve throughout the day with a 226 first game, followed by a 229 second, and saving the best for last with a 257 third. Alderson becomes just the second Cobra ever to qualify for state with the first being Holden Huffman in 2020.
