Good morning.
Everyone’s favorite Vanderbilt sports team is officially back in action. No, not the VandyBoys — I am speaking, of course, of the Vanderbilt women’s bowling team, which opens the 2019-20 season ranked #1 in the nation. The bowling team will compete in the Allstate Sugar Bowl Collegiate Bowling Invitational in New Orleans this weekend to open the season. Friday’s play opens at 9:30 AM CT and can be streamed on the team’s YouTube channel.
Vanderbilt soccer hosts LSU for Senior Night at 7:00 PM CT at the Vanderbilt Soccer/Lacrosse Complex; that match can be streamed on the SEC Network+. The team’s three seniors will be honored prior to the game.
Women’s tennis won both of its matches yesterday at the ITA Regionals in Murfreesboro.
