The brilliant performances of the Maltese national team of bowling at the MBC in Rome continued yesterday with a superb performance by the team composed of Tiziana Carannante, Cynthia Frendo Duca, Nicholas Muscat and Kayden Lagana’.
After the first 4 games in the 6 game team event, the team was in 4 th place with a total of 3026, against France’s 3059, Spain’s 3100 and Italy with 3118.
That was when Malta started applying pressure and by the end of the 9 th frame Spain were behind us! With Italy too far ahead, all eyes were on France. The last frame for Malta was brilliant with all 4 bowlers finishing strongly led by an absolutely brilliant 279 by Lagana’.
With the 4 th French bowler missing his single pin spare, the Maltese team took 2 nd place by 9 pins, 4613 vs 4604, as Italy won gold with their score of 4706.
Lagana made it an even more memorable night as with his 279, he overtook the Italian Luca Micchie’ to finish 3 rd in the all events.
Today we have 3 of our 4 bowlers who will play in the masters, with Nicholas and Kayden in the male masters and Tiziana in the ladies masters.
