Bowling
By Ralph Stice
Gamacock Staff Writer
With a membership of some 40
strong and two intercollegiate
teams that last year ranked among
the nation's elite, the USC Bowling
Club definitely has the ball rolling
this year. Even though intra-club
league play has begun, new
bowlers are still welcome to join,
according to current club
president Butch Nell.
The club bowls on Monday and
Thursday nights from 4-6 p.m. at
the Star Lanes on Assembly Street
in Columbia. A 10-team league
bowls on Mondays while a 12-team
league moves into action on
ThursHav evenines Rach team
consists of two Bowling Club
members.
LEAGUE PLAY is specially
handicapped to make the teams
competitively even. Those who
bowl closest to their averages (or
exceed them) win, regardless of
how high that average may be.
Averages of club participants
ranee anvwhere from 80 to 195.
"We're just out there for
everybody to have a good time.
You don't have to be an exceptional
bowler to participate,"
Nell said.
The cost of membership is $2.50
per week which covers three
games, shoe rental, trophies, and a
party at the end of the year. When
asked wh\ he should recommend
the club to interested bowlers, fivesemester
member Alan Owens
replied, "It's relatively cheap, it's
convenient, and I think the com
petition makes a person bowl
better. Plus, if you're good you get
a chance to bowl on the team."
FOR THE MORE serious and
talented bowlers, the club offers a
program of intercollegiate competition.
At the time of a
designated match or tournament,
the top six men and women
bowlers make up the respective
teams.
The two teams (men's and
women's) play in a conference that
inuiuura oiA icdiua uuiii diiu
South Carolina. Clemson, UNCCharlotte,
Wofford, and The
Citadel are among the conference
c members. USC meets each team in
the conference twice during the
course of the schedule, which runs
from October to April.
Also on this year's schedule
(pending sufficient funds) are
tournaments in West Virginia,
Florida, Tennessee, Alabama, and
Georgia.
IN ADDITION to these contests,
the teams will also hopefully
compete in this year's Regionals.
ii eiuier icain captures uit:
Regional title, it will then journey
to the Nationals in Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, in late April.
This year's team will have a
tough act to follow. Last year, the
men's squad was ranked 20th in the
country. The women bowlers fared
even better. They finished in the
number 14 spot in the nation. USC's
Jeff Bellinger won the men's
NCAA individual title too.
Hopes are running high for this
year's women's team. The entire
starting lineup remains intact
from a squad Quit placed second in
the regionals. Kelli Losey, Cheryl
Bethmann, Ginny Creshaw,
Taunda Suber, Sheila Silver, and
last year's captain, Kathy
K cieMedicis, make a formidable
lineup of top bowlers. The team's
averages range from 165 to 175.
