I think your college bowling career is a once in a lifetime experience. Everyone that bowled in college go to travel to places they would have never went to, meet great new people and bowl on a competitive level that is hard to capture anywhere else. The lane conditions and tournament formats were demanded but fun at the same time. Traveling and competing against storied bowling programs was amazing especially when we were in tournaments against teams we didn't even to deserve to be on the same lanes against. What you guys think?

I think the best part of bowling on the college level is being part of a team that competes against some of the best bowlers in the country at our age level. You learn a lot about how to compete under pressure and how to bowl on some of the hardest patterns around. It is also great being on a school team and being able to represent that school on an athletic level. The last thing is just all of the friends you make and meet through the various tournaments and practices that you attend.
