A Pella High School bowler earned a top national scholarship.

Jack Weaver won the Zeb scholarship from the United States Bowling Congress. He will receive this award at their annual conference in Las Vegas this summer. The USBC only gives this scholarship to one student in the United States each year, and Jack is the first person in Iowa to ever receive it. The USBC is the governing body of all things bowling, including junior and adult leagues. Men’s collegiate bowling is managed by the USBC, not the NCAA.

The award recognizes a USBC member who achieves academic success and gives back to their community through service. This scholarship is based mainly on community service and very strong academic success.

Weaver was a senior on this year’s Pella bowling team and also competes with the Bionic Dutch robotics program.
