So, we didn't get to take home a trophy to the Middletown newsroom on Saturday, but Team Newsies still had a good time at the Middlesex Community College bowla-thon in Wallingford.

The event raised over $1,000 for the college's scholarship fund. A team from Student Activities won both the overall trophy and the campus team trophy.

From The Middletown Press, we had Managing Editor Lauren Flaum, copy editor Leslie Parsons and reporter Justin Kloczko compete against three teams from The Flying Horse, the college paper.

Next year, we're hoping to challenge other media organizations to get them to participate as well.
