ARLINGTON, Texas – In-state rivals and top seeded Alabama A&M and Alabama State will meet in the final round of the 2014 SWAC Bowling Tournament on Sunday, March 23, inside the Bowling nternational Training and Research Center in Arlington, Texas. Start time is slated for 1:00 p.m. CT.

No. 1 seed AAMU will appear in the Southwestern Athletic Conference bowling championship match for the third consecutive year while No. 2 seed ASU makes its first appearance.

The Lady Bulldogs captured the title during the 2010 season. 

Saturday AAMU made its way into the semifinals after having a first round bye. The Lady Bulldogs topped Jackson State and would later move past ASU to advance to the championship match.
AAMU is powered by All-SWAC selections Rebecca Goodwin and Camille Collins with Arial Dowdy receiving all tournament honors.
ASU also had a first round bye but the road to the title match took a different turn. The Lady Hornets defeated Texas Southern, dropped their next match to AAMU which sent them into the losers bracket. After six matches with JSU, ASU earned a spot in Sunday’s championship game.

SWAC Bowling regular season MVP Danielle Walker leads ASU. Walker is joined by all conference pick, Brianna Wells. Wells was named to the all tournament team along side teammate Kaila Ryan.

The defending SWAC Champion Prairie View A&M's quest for a third straight title fell short as they were eliminated by JSU in the semifinals.
