Iowa Central wins 2019 NJCAA Men's Bowling Championship

The Triton bowling team secured the 2019 NJCAA National Championship last weekend in Cheektowaga, N.Y.

Led by Alex Dudley, the All-Events champion and individual runner-up, Iowa Central fended off second place Rock Valley (Ill.) by over 400 points with a total score of 13485. Dudley also won the Doubles Championship with his brother Ryan Dudley. 

The win marked the second in team history and first since 2017.

Iowa Western finished in sixth place on the men's side.

The Triton women also competed for a championship but were fended off by Ancilla and Muskegon, leaving Iowa Central with a third-place finish. The Tritons were led by Neva Waidelich who finished in sixth place of the All-Events standings.

A pair of Tritons won the Women's Doubles Championship as Waidelich and Casey Brandau beat two of their teammates, Balil Girkin and Dawn Hathaway, who finished in second place.
