Miracle Ashley of Ludowici placed fourth in her division of the State Special Olympics Master’s Bowling Tournament on July 18 in Savannah.

"This was Miracle’s first time competing at the state level and I think she did great," said coach Krystal Middleton. "You could tell she was nervous at first, but once she got warmed up, she bowled her best game ever."

The Master’s Tournament is for Special Olympic athletes age 22 and older. More than 1,300 athletes and coaches from around the state competed this year.
