Bowling is one of the most recent additions to the slate of MHSAA tournaments, with just more than a decade of history as an association-sponsored sport.

But it's also one that continues to grow in popularity, with both girls and boys bowling setting participation records during the 2015-16 school year. 

Here's a look at the brief tournament history for the sport. This feature is from the spring issue of benchmarks, built and written by Rob Kaminski. Scroll to the bottom of the page for links to our previous installments.
