Pitt-Bradford Women's Bowling To Host Penn State-Behrend Tuesday For Senior Day

BRADFORD, Pa. -- The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford women's bowling team is set to host Penn State-Behrend at Byllye Lanes for its final home action of the season Tuesday.

Prior to the start of the contest, the Pitt-Bradford Department of Athletics and women's bowling program will honor Bryce Holm for senior day.

But Saint Vincent responded with a 908-646 win in the second team scoring round.

Trisha McElroy was the top performer for the Panthers in the second game with 150 pins.

The two teams then battled in the baker best-of-seven portion. It took all seven games to decide a winner, with the Panthers coming out on top 4-3.

Pitt-Bradford won the first two games (148-106, 136-130), but Saint Vincent put a halt to the Panthers' momentum with wins in the next two, (157-144, 165-145) evening it at two wins apiece.

The Panthers then won game five (174-130), then Saint Vincent extended it with a win in game six (171-135).
