Women's Bowling finishes third at Muskie Mash

The Muskingum women's bowling team hosted the Muskie Mash and Senior Day at Legacy Lanes on Saturday.

Muskingum finished third out of the seven teams that competed with a total pinfall of 4,447. UNOH won the event with 4860 pins.

Kylie Carpenter of UNOH won the tournament of 55 bowlers with 601 pins for three games.

The field might have been small, but it was stacked with UNOH being #6 in the country, and St. Vincent was last year's NCAA D3 Team of the Year. Muskingum is currently ranked #25 in the country and the #1 club team in the nation.

Senior Elizabeth Springsteen led the way with a total of 558 across three games, earning a third-place finish and a spot on the All-Tournament Team. Senior Lillian Matteson earned a seventh-place finish by adding 534 pins to the Muskies' total. Both seniors were recognized before the competition began.

Junior Tayler Clark finished tenth after contributing 517 pins in the three individual games.

Sophomore Faith Smith added 468 pins over three games of action, while sophomore Bridget Cake tallied 272 over two games. Freshman Crystal Yingst rounded out the Muskies with a 164 in her only game of action.

The Muskies will be back in action November 8-9, as they compete at the Br. Patrick Lacey Memorial Tournament and Unicorn Classic in Pittsburgh.
