TU bowlers split Sunday action, finish 11th at Bearcat Open

FAIRVIEW HEIGHTS, Ill. --- The Tusculum University women's bowling team split its two matches on Sunday to wrap up play at the 2022 McKendree Bearcat Open.

The Pioneers completed traditional round play with an 883-755 victory over Kentucky Wesleyan for TU's first victory of the young season.

Tusculum advanced to bracket playoff play where they lost to Quincy 4-1 in a Baker Best-of-7 format. Quincy won the first three games before TU rebounded with a 217-198 decision in the fourth game. But QU closed out the match with a 215-203 decision in the fifth.

Lincoln Memorial claimed the tournament title as the Railsplitters upset host and defending NCAA champion McKendree and followed with a 4-1 win over Mercyhurst in the final.

The tournament individual standings were concluded on Sunday as Allison Robbins finished 18th with a six-game total 1,167 total pins. Alexa Tieto placed 31st with 1,052 pins. Shayna Long was 36th with 974, Emilee Horton posted 968 pins for 37th and Savannah Price placed 38th with 957.
