DDN: Wright State bowlers roll to championship title

Men's bowling team

Excerpt from the Dayton Daily News

The Wright State men have bowled their way to back-to-back American Heartland Bowling Association conference championship titles.

The conference title is based on finishes throughout the season in seven AHBA tournaments. The Raiders won the Toledo tournament and placed second in two other events. They compiled enough points to win the championship despite only competing in six of the seven tournaments.

The Raiders returned from the final conference tournament Sunday with more than a team trophy as sophomores Brent Shroyer and Angelo Biondo were both named to the Varsity Men’s All-Conference first team and coach Jeremy Fleck earned the AHBA Men’s Coach of the Year award. Fleck was quick to share the credit for his recognition.

“It’s the culmination of all of our hard work,” he said. “I don’t look at it as a coaching award, it’s a team award. It shows what can happen when everyone buys into the process.”

While the AHBA championship is a point of pride for the Raiders, the Wright State men have their sights set beyond league accolades.

“We want to go back to nationals,” Fleck said.
