WOODBRIDGE, VA- The bowling season continued with a weekend trip to Virginia for the Hawk Classic. No. 15 FDU finished the three-day event with a record of 3-10.

Allysha Howard continued to be a bright spot for FDU. On day two, she knocked down 200 or more pins in five of six matches. Julianna Spina displayed an ability to rise to the challenge against the top competition. She fired weekend-highs of 246 and 241 against no. 7 Jacksonville State and no. 1 Vanderbilt, respectively. In total, the Knights were able to eclipse the 1000-pin mark in seven of 13 matches on the weekend.
