Saline High School senior Cheyenne Long reached the semifinals of the Division 1 MHSAA singles bowling championships on Saturday before being eliminated by eventual champion Sarah Lokker of New Baltimore Anchor Bay.

Long was the top scorer after the morning qualifying block at M-66 Bowl in Battle Creek, leading a group of 16 bowlers into match play competition, which is scored by two-game total pinfall.

She beat Allison Pace of Southgate Anderson 382-354 in the round of 16 and Jessica Vandelinder of Warren Cousino 373-361 in the quarterfinals. Lokker, who went on to beat Alex Mollitor of Holt in the final, outscored Long 471-365 in one semifinal.

Long’s six-game qualifying score of 1,346 pins was 68 better than second-place Mollitor.
