WEEK 10 STATS: 11 appearances, 19.40 overall frame average, .857 filled frames pct., 10 strikes in championship match
Cook entered the starting lineup for Friday’s third match at the Golden Bear Invitational and proceeded to propel Duquesne to the tournament title. The second-year Duke averaged a team-high 19.40 pins per frame during the three-day event. She threw 49 strikes in 112 attempts (.438) and went 30-for-31 on single-pin spare attempts en-route to a team-leading .857 filled frames percentage. Cook turned up the heat during Sunday’s championship baker rounds. Helping the Dukes finish in first place by virtue of three consecutive best-of-seven victories, she left only five open frames all day. Cook was clean during 14 frames in the championship match, a dramatic, come-from-behind 4-to-3 victory over No. 11 Adelphi. The sophomore righty struck on 10 of 14 attempts in the title tilt.
