Dating back to the mid-1960s, with intercollegiate competition beginning in 1977, bowling at Morehead State University is a club sport and is affiliated with the collegiate division of the United States Bowling Congress. Morehead State University has a rich tradition of excellence in intercollegiate bowling and is respected as one of the premier bowling programs in the country. As a perennial bowling powerhouse, the Eagles are one of the most successful sports in Morehead State University history.〔()〕 ==Facility== The Larry Wilson University Lanes, built in 1967, are housed in the Laughlin Health Building on the campus of Morehead State University. The six-lane center, open to the campus community, serves as the practice facility for the MSU bowling teams. Once team membership dues have been paid, MSU bowlers use the Larry Wilson University Lanes free-of-charge for unlimited individual practice. During the 2006-2007 academic year, the center was completely remodeled. The lanes are now equipped with Brunswick A-2 pin spotters and were resurfaced with the state-of-the-art Kegel Edge synthetic lane surface. The Larry Wilson University Lanes are one of two bowling facilities in the United States to use this surface. The settee and counter areas were refurbished with new flooring, lighting, and furniture. New masking units were added as well. The lanes are maintained using the Kegel Phoenix-S. This machine is capable of having oil patterns uploaded, allowing the teams to prepare on patterns more similar to tournament conditions. Adjacent to the Larry Wilson University Lanes is a team room to be used for storage of equipment by bowling team members as well as pro shop equipment. In 2009 the facility acquired a fully functional pro-shop to aid the MSU bowling team in getting all of their equipment drilled without having to travel to any surrounding bowling center. The center is also USBC Sanctioned and will be hosting a sanctioned league starting this summer. Also over the summer, the old pins were replaced with the new synthetic Twister Pins.〔()〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Morehead State Bowling」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
