Flint, Mich. — The Aquinas bowling teams competed Saturday (Sept. 30) in tournament No. 2 on the season at Rochester’s Warrior Classic being held at the Richfield Lanes. The men finished runner-up out of 13 teams — the program’s best result since they finished second at the Cornerstone Classic last season — and the women settled for 5th out of 11 teams.
The team final scores were determined by four individual series of games and four sets of baker games.
MEN
The Saints knocked down 7,594 pins to finish 76 pins back from the eventual winners Lawrence Tech (7,670). There was a large gap between the Top 2 and rest with Madonna (6,984), UM-Dearborn (6,700) and Bowling Green State (6,625) rounding out the Top 5.
Three AQ bowlers finished inside the Top 10 individually. Michael Deming took second place with 917 total pins and bowled one of the best games of the tournament with a 273.
Here is how everyone performed individually:
In the baker games, AQ put together totals of 860, 883, 717 and 828.
