The #21 Valparaiso University bowling team finished out action at the Warhawk Classic in Kenosha, Wis. on Sunday, closing the tournament in 12th place.

How It Happened

• Valpo began bracket play, conducted in the best-of-seven baker format, against #15 St. Francis (Pa.). The Crusaders rallied back from a 2-0 deficit to even the match at two games apiece, but St. Francis broke 200 in each of the final two games to earn the win.
• The Crusaders rebounded for a win in their second match of the day, defeating #RV Lincoln Memorial 4-1 by winning each of the final four games after dropping the opener.
• A rematch with St. Francis was on the docket for the finale, but after winning the opening game, the Crusaders fell in each of the next four to close the tournament.

Next Up

The Crusaders (20-15) will return to competition in three weekends as they travel to Kenner, La. to bowl at the Allstate Sugar Bowl Collegiate Bowling Invitational. The three-day tournament begins on Friday, Dec. 2.
