Bishop Carroll’s Anne and Rose Timmermeyer – Athlete Spotlight – Presented by Old Chicago

By Hayden Swope

Whether Bishop Carroll’s sister duo of Anne and Rose Timmermeyer are playing by themselves or doubles, they always have each other’s backs, building their bond throughout the season.  

Anne placed eighth at the 5A state bowling tournament, and won the Scotch Doubles Tournament of 2024. Rose helped win the Scotch Doubles Tournament in 2024, placed seventh at City League, and fourth place at regionals.

While all of those accomplishments were just last season, both of the girls are looking to better all of them this season.

“This upcoming season I am looking forward to making new and wonderful memories with my teammates and coaches,” Anne Timmermeyer said. “I am also looking forward to the Scotch Doubles Tournament because I get to bowl with my sister as a pair one last time.”

Getting to play the sport is fun, but for the sisters, enjoying it and making the memories along the way are the best part.

“My favorite part about bowling has been getting to spend time with some amazing girls and coaches all while also playing the sport we love,” Rose Timmermeyer said. “This upcoming season I am working towards  improving my average and my overall knowledge of bowling.”

Only having a few years of experience under their belt has been challenging, but with the help of a supportive coaching staff, the Timmermeyers high school season has flown by.

“I would like to point out how amazing the coaching staff at Bishop Carroll,” Anne Timmermeyer said. “Coming into bowling sophomore year knowing nothing about the sport is hard, but coaches Ron Horsch and Sam Nance shaped us into the bowlers we are today.”
