Anchor Drop, January 13, 2020: Bowling Wins in Vegas

Good morning.

Vanderbilt bowling won the Stormin’ Blue and Gold Vegas Classic on Sunday, picking up wins over McKendree and Nebraska to conclude an undefeated weekend and the tournament. Next up: Philadelphia next weekend.

Men’s tennis completed the Coach LaLance Invite in Murfreesboro with five individual victories on Sunday. They’ll face a doubleheader against Nebraska and Belmont on Saturday.

Women’s basketball lost to South Carolina, 93-57. Yeah, let’s not talk too much about that.

The Tennessean interviews new defensive coordinator Ted Roof, in podcast form.

The Hustler takes on the topic of legacy admissions at Vanderbilt. My opinion: why should legacies get preference? It’s stupid and nonsensical.
