Earning her third consecutive NEC Bowler of the Week award, Small led No. 14 Duquesne to an 8-5 record at the Northeast Classic in New Castle, DE last week. The fifth-year bowler earned All-Tournament accolades at the competition for finishing second of 247 athletes in traditional play. She knocked down 1,157 pins, which was seven shy of the top spot. Small posted the best overall average (21.18), traditional average (23.14), split leave percentage (3.6) and fill percentage (.907) in the conference last week along with the second-best strike percentage (.536). The Dukes notched victories over No. 9 Maryville (twice), No. 12 Louisiana Tech, No. 17 Mount St. Mary’s, No. 22 Delaware State, Morgan State, Central Missouri and William Smith. This is the sixth time in her career that Small has been named NEC Bowler of the Week.
