Oak Lawn Spartan Bowler Sam Bergamo The 'Essence' of Consistency

OAK LAWN, IL — Sam Bergamo is a picture of consistency on the bowling lanes for the Oak Lawn Community High School’s boys bowling team. Once again, he was one of the most consistent bowlers for the entire season, with an average of 205 pins per game. He medaled in three tournaments and was named a 2023 South Suburban Conference Red All-Conference bowler.

“Sam has one of the highest bowling IQs in all of Oak Lawn and never hesitates to help out his teammates on the lanes,” OLCHS head coach Kevin Walery said. “Great season, Sam. We cannot wait to see what your senior year has in store.”

The Spartans finished the boys bowling season as back-to-back SSC Red champions, advanced to the Illinois High School Association Sectional as a team, and they had a total of five all-conference bowlers. The junior varsity team finished second place in conference. With Bergamo returning and a lot of other experienced bowlers coming back, the future looks bright for Oak Lawn boys bowling next year.
