SAN ANTONIO, Texas – The 17th-ranked Tulane bowling program is back on the road this weekend for the Bulldog Classic, hosted by Louisiana Tech. The three-day tournament begins tomorrow and runs through Sunday, November 8, at Bowlero Thousand Oaks in San Antonio, Texas.
It is another loaded field as 10 of the 16 teams in the competition are ranked with an 11th program receiving votes. Alongside Tulane, the other ranked foes are No. 2 Vanderbilt, No. 3 Wichita State, No. 4 Arkansas State, No. 5 Nebraska, No. 7 Louisiana Tech, No. 8 Sam Houston, No. 12 Newman, No. 20 UAB, and No. 21 Valparaiso. Jackson State is the program receiving votes. The remainder of the field is comprised of Alabama A&M, Alabama State, Grambling, Prairie View A&M, and Southern.
The tournament will open on Friday, November 6, at 10:25 a.m. with the first of two days of qualifying pool play. Day one will be comprised of five sets of five Baker matches. Day two will see five traditional matches beginning at 9:15 a.m. Teams will then be seeded for the bracket portion, which takes place on Sunday and features three sets of best-of-seven Baker matches beginning at 8:55 a.m.
Tulane opens day one against No. 2 Vanderbilt and follows with a match-up against No. 21 Valpo. Contests against Alabama State and Grambling are next with the first day concluding against No. 8 Sam Houston. Day two sees four more ranked match-ups, beginning with No. 4 Arkansas State. After a tilt against Jackson State, contests against No. 12 Newman, No. 20 UAB, and No. 3 Wichita State are next.
Last time out the Green Wave competed in the Destination Florida, hosted by Sacred Heart. Tulane placed 15th in a deep 23-team field with a total pinfall of 13,310 and a record of 7-6. Freshman Malia Briggs was named to the all-tournament team upon the conclusion of the tournament after placing 10th individually through traditional match play. She totaled 1,334 pins at an average of 222.33 and rolled over 200 in five of her six games, including a near-perfect 299. This was her first-career all-tournament team honor.
Tulane will conclude the fall slate next weekend with the Track Kat Klash in Houston, Texas. The event is hosted by Sam Houston and runs from Friday, November 13, to Sunday, November 15.
