The Women finished in 6th Place (38 teams) after qualifying for match-play in 4th, while the Men finished in 2nd Place (60 teams) after coming ever so close to another title.

The Crimson Wave women easily made their way into the best-of-5 Baker match-play finals with solid performances from a trio of veteran keglers. Katie Jones paced a balanced Crimson Wave attack with a six game total of 1140 (190.0 avg.), good for 15th place in the individual category. Not far behind was Alice Veenstra in 17th place with an 1126 total (187.7 avg.). Rounding out the trio’s solid performance was Katrina Elwardt with a total of 1104 (184.0 avg.), good for 25th place.

In the 5th and deciding game, the Crimson Wave equaled Lindenwood’s performance throughout, and it came down to the final frame before the second of back-to-back pocket splits (4-9’s) denied our men another title.

The Crimson Men were led by senior Sammy Krucek, who made his second consecutive All-Tournament Team with a six-game total of 1319 (219.8 avg.).
