HOUSTON — Louisiana Tech fell in the opening round but found their way back into fourth place at the Track Kat Klash at Emerald Bowl on Sunday.
The seventh-ranked Bulldogs rolled a 206 out the gate, but No. 11 Stephen F. Austin came away with the lead after a 211. Tech would fall in games two and three before bouncing back to take the fourth 200-164. However, that was not enough as the Ladyjacks took game five and the match 4-1.
LA Tech shot three games at even or above to sweep No. 16 Maryland Eastern Shore. The Bulldogs rolled a 200 in games one and four and added a 219 in the third. The second game was low-scoring, with Tech winning by 14 pins.
That set up a rematch with SFA to determine third and fourth places in the tournament. The Bulldogs scored better than the first set against the Ladyjacks, but the result was the same. The first and third games came down to the 10th frame, with SFA taking them by a pin, 191-190 and 179-178. Both teams were in the plus the other two games, with Tech falling 220-201 and 235-221.
