It's been a splendid two years for Jesuit bowling. 20-0 over the past two years, two district and one regional title, and a state qualification. But this year, it's different.

He looks down at the boards, and lines up for his shot. He wipes his rapidly perspiring brow with his sleeve. Berven takes his first step, as he slowly pushes his...
