Men's competition

Davenport-A shot 5,178 during team and 3,932 during Baker to finish with 9,110, which was enough to top Robert Morris University of Illinois by 26 pins, 9,110-9,084, and give Davenport its first tournament title in the program's two-year existence.

Team play went a long way toward helping the Panthers to victory. Davenport broke 1,000 in all five games - 1,037, 1,041, 1,020, 1,037 and 1,043 - to establish a 56-pin lead heading into the Baker portion of the event. That advantage ended up being crucial down the stretch as it allowed Davenport to hold on for the win even though it was outgunned, 3,962-3,932, by Robert Morris during Baker.

Erik Stanley, Dan Pollak, Justin Essenmacher, Nic Sutherland, Dan Joslin, Seth Bouwman and Jared Langeland comprised the victorious Davenport-A squad.

Morehead State (8,973), Lindenwood-A (8,874) and Purdue-Black (8,837) rounded out spots three, four and five, respectively, in the team standings.

The individual crown went to Stanley, who fired a five-game total of 1,118 to finish with a 223.60 average. Pollak, also of Davenport-A, was second with 1,087 (217.40). Steve Miller of Lindenwood-A (1,085 - 217.00), Ryan Slosser of Purdue-Black (1,080 - 216.00) and Tyler Keys of Calumet-Heat Wave (1,071 - 214.20) also cracked the top five.
