MILLSBORO, Del. – The No. 14 Tulane bowling team got a pair of top 10 individual finishes and had one of its best rounds in the traditional matches as the Green Wave earned an 11^th place finish at the 2019 UMES Hawk Classic in Millsboro, Delaware.

The Green Wave knocked down 12,825 total pins over the course of the three-day event this weekend, finishing with a pin average of 191.4 in 67 total games from Friday to Sunday.

"I am impressed with the team's rebound on Saturday after a struggle on Friday. Overall though this tournament we were just too inconsistent," head coach Hayley Veitch said.

Crystal Singh finished 24th with an average of 201.20, while Madison McCall finished 32^nd finished with a pin average of 196.00.

The Green Wave bounced back in a big way on Saturday, going 4-1 in traditional matches and jumping up from 13^th all the way to ninth after knocking down 4,941 pins and increasing their pin average to 191.3.

Tulane got off to a bit of a rough start on Friday, but rallied at the end to sit in 13^th place overall after knocking down 4,625 pins to sit in 13^th place overall. The squad finished with a pin average of 185.0 through the five Baker matches on day one.

Sacred Heart got the best of the Green Wave in the opener, with a 1,023-945 score, with Lincoln Memorial earning a 1,014-945 victory over Tulane in the second contest of the day. The host Hawks earned a 958-905 win, with Monmouth pulling out a 947-824 decision.

The Green Wave saved its best for last against Saint Francis, winning 1,006-814 to put a cap on Friday.
