East Islip High School senior and varsity bowling team co-captain Andrew Jacobsen is having a stellar season. His numerous accomplishments include a 223 average through 12 matches, ranking him fourth in Suffolk County; shooting five consecutive 700+ series in matches this season; placing fourth in the Jan. 15 singles and doubles tournament held on Jan. 15 in Sayville; and being listed as one of the top 20 bowlers in the county by Newsday. Last year, Jacobsen was a member of the New York State champion Section XI All-Star team.
“Andrew has been a member of our varsity bowling team since seventh grade, and I have watched him develop into an extraordinary bowler, but more importantly, a respectful and kind person,” coach Judith Fischer said. “He is a steady and constant force on the team and leads with a quiet confidence.”
Jacobsen will attend Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia this fall, and plans to continue his bowling career.
