I love our bowling coach. Down-to-earth guy who's built a solid program at Tech. Happy for him.
It's not a "major" sport but he's a winner.

Guess the Bot failed on this news release:
Lady Techsters Punch Their Ticket Into Arlington Regional

RUSTON- After finishing third at the Stouthland Bowling Championships last weekend, the Louisiana Tech women's bowling team has earned a spot in the NCAA Regional in Arlington, Texas April 7th and 8th.

For the second year in a row, LA tech has qualified for the NCAA Tournament. The Lady Techsters punched a ticket to the Arlington Regional and will begin play on April 7 when they face Sam Houston. McKendree is the No. 1 overall seed and is also in the Arlington Regional along with Fayetteville State and Prairie View.

"First off, I am very glad that we have made it back to another regional. The middle part of our season was a little rough, but the last four events that we went to finishing in the top four shows that we can compete, and we deserve to be there. I'm just very proud of this team with the never quit attitude That they have. We have a week to clean up some of the issues we had at the conference championships, but I feel pretty confident going into this regional."

The format at the NCAA Regional and Finals will be the same as what the Lady Techsters faced at the Southland Bowling Championship. It will be a best of three mega match format.

Both teams will compete in a traditional team total pinfall set, followed by a team baker set. If they split the first two sets, then the winner will be determined by a best-of-seven baker match.
