Good morning.

Optional Musical Accompaniment

Vanderbilt bowling came back from a loss to Arkansas State in the first match of Friday to eliminate hated rival McKendree in the nightcap. The Commodores, seeking their third national championship, will face Nebraska at 11 AM CT in an elimination match; the winner will see Arkansas State on Saturday night for the championship, which will be televised on ESPNU.

The less said about the baseball team’s 14-6 loss to South Carolina, the better. The Commodores and Gamecocks will play again at 2 PM CT today.

Women’s golf advanced to the match play portion of the SEC Championship, where they’ll play fifth-seeded Mississippi State today starting at 7:50 AM CT.

Women’s tennis beat LSU, 4-2, on Friday, improving to 6-6 in the SEC ahead of Sunday’s season finale against Texas A&M.

Basketball scored a commitment from Jason Rivera-Torres, a 6’6” wing from John Marshall High School in Richmond, Virginia:

Vanderbilt still has four scholarships to give for next year’s team — five if Tyrin Lawrence elects to remain in the NBA Draft.
