Why in God's name are we in the SWAC? haha
But hey, dey be's bowlin.
We're not in the SWAC.
But all the SWAC schools have bowling. And pretty much no one else in the area does. So we go where there's a tournament.
which makes you wonder why in the hell we have a bowling team. what a joke
Because it's the cheapest sport they could possibly have. They play in 5 or 6 tournaments a year, all within easy driving distance (Bossier City, Baton Rouge, Jackson, Houston, etc.), and there's only 7 people on the team and one coach. No managers, trainers, or anyone else to get a hotel room for. If they're not ranked in the Top 10 by the first of February, they shut it down because they don't have a chance to get picked for nationals; if they do manage to be highly ranked, they'll go play in one more tournament in hopes of getting an NCAA bid (only 8 teams are selected).
Like Beaver-Dog said, it's a cheap way to comply with Title IX and NCAA rules. Oh, and we have to have a minimum of 16 sports to stay in Division I-A.
We need more sports like this since we have Title-IX issues affecting our football team sometimes.
