RedTail Bowling Competes at Mustang Invitational

SIOUX CITY–The Hawkeye RedTail Women's Bowling team competed at the Mustang Invitational on December 3-4, 2022. 

Madison Shontz finished in 14th place making her the highest-placing RedTail at the competition. Shontz totaled 1021 pins over six games. Anna Becker knocked down 988 pins, finishing in 20th place. Brianna Ross and Julia Larsen finished in 47th and 48th place, respectively. Ross finished with 641 pins, while Larsen totaled 629 pins over the weekend. Emma Pitz was close behind with 594 pins and finishing in 50th place. Ross, Larsen, and Pitz bowled only four games each over the weekend. The RedTails placed seventh as a team with a total of 4674 pins.

"The RedTail ladies started off hot [during] the first two games of qualifying on Saturday and then caught some changes in the pattern that had us drop a little bit," said head coach Roger Taylor. "A seventh place finish should still award us some much needed points for our year long points standings in the USBC national rankings"

The RedTails next competition won't be until the new year. They will travel to Addison, Ill., to compete at the Kegel Midwest Collegiate Classic on January 13-14, 2023.
