LINCOLN, Neb. – Wichita State shook off a series of tough-luck losses to defeat two of the nation's top teams and win the Big Red Invite on Sunday afternoon at Hollywood Bowl.
The tournament title is the 252nd in program history and the second of the 2025-26 season.
For much of the weekend, it was a frustrating trip to Lincoln for the Shockers (64-27). Wichita State went just 3-8 over the first two days of matches, plus the final traditional match on Sunday morning. Among those eight losses, WSU fell by margins of two pins (twice), 10 pins, 22 pins and 36 pins.
