Jaybowl in the Kansas Union affords the opportunity for the KU club bowling team to practice and win big at competitions. Bowlers fine-tune skill for big competition Story by EMILY MUSKIN 1 Published AUGUST 28,2007 n the first two lanes at the Iaybowl, a team of nine men and one woman is bowling. The atmosphere is similar to that of a night out with friends, but these bowlers are paying more at- tention to detail, trying to hone their skills for the semesters tour- naments. Monday through Friday, for two hours each day, the KU Bowl- ing Team can be found practic- ing. The team is keeping alive a tradition that began more than 40 years ago and peaked in 2004 with an intercollegiate bowling national title. KU bowling provides an oppor- tunity for the inexperienced and advanced bowlers alike, but even though anyone can be a member of the team, it travels with only nine athletes. Coach Trent Overbey said that he appreciated the sport because a wide range of people was able to enjoy it and compete. Competition is a main ingredi- ent in the life of a KU bowler be- cause the team attends eight tour- naments each school year. ln the past, the team has traveled to Las Vegas, New Iersey Omaha, Neb., and many locations in Kansas. Overbey said bowling required a lot of practice and skill to achieve success, but he said most ofbowl- ing was mental. Every bowling alley has varied levels of oil on the lanes. Overbey said a good bowler could read how much oil there was, where it was and how it changed from the previous shot by watching the ball's movement down the lane. Depending on what the bowler sees, he or she plays a specific game for the conditions. Team members usually spend practices working on adapting to the many conditions that a lane may provide so that the members can prepare well for tournaments and not be caught off-guard, Overbey said. Returning team member Kenny Goodell, Wichita senior, said trips seemed to be a favorite activity for the team. I like the peoplef' Goodell said. The team is like a community.
