Southern Tops Won-Loss Standings in Day One of NCAA Bowling Championship

April 8, 2004

HOUSTON, TX - Day one of the inaugural women’s bowling national championships at the Emerald Bowl in Houston featured two perfect games in a banner opening round of action for the inaugural NCAA championship for the sport. Eight teams faced each other in seven games of regular team bowling.

The Lady Jaguars of Southern University posted the best won-loss record of the opening day winning six of their seven matches with a total pinfall of 7264. Maryland-Eastern Shore's Lady Hawls were 1-6 in head-to-head matches with their only victory coming over the winless Lady Rams of Winston-Salem State.
The Lady Hawks knocked down 7061 pins while the Lady Rams finished with 5420 total pinfall.

Despite a 4-3 record, Nebraska led the first day's total pinfall with 7633. Southern ranked sixth, followed by UMES and WSSU.

In the opening game of the tournament, New Jersey City University junior Jennifer Viens (Old Bridge, NJ/Old Bridge) became the first bowler in NCAA history to roll a perfect 300 game in championship play, as the Division III Gothic Knights achieved a team score of 1177 against Winston- Salem State University—the second highest team score of the first day of the championships.

In the third game, Central Missouri State University freshman Christina Peak (Machesney Park, IL) notched the second 300 game of the championships, and it ironically occurred when the Jennies were facing NJCU. CMSU tallied an 1192 in their final game of the day, also against WSSU, for the highest team score of the first day.

Total pinfall from Thursday’s action will be combined with the pinfall from seven baker matches in session three of the championships on Friday morning to determine the seeding for the remainder of the tournament.

Session four, Friday afternoon, will open the double-elimination portion of the championships, when schools will square off in three rounds of baker games in a best 4-out-of-7 format. In baker games, the five bowlers on a team each will play two frames of a traditional 10-frame game.
