CLINTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. – The Golden Eagles bowling teams competed at the WHAC championships on Saturday at Fairlanes in Clinton Township. The Men's team made program history by making it to the finals for the first time since the program began in 2015-16. The Men's team ultimately finished in fourth place while the women put up a strong showing and finished fifth. Both squads will resume their season on Saturday, March 13, at the Bowling Green State Invite. 

Men's Results
The men came out with an 802 in the first baker set and an 804 in the second baker set.

They did just that, bowling an impressive 882 to clinch the fourth spot with a score of 3223, just 65 pins ahead of fifth-place Huntington. Matched up with Indiana Tech in the best-of-five tournament round, Cornerstone won the first and third sets, but Indiana Tech won the second, fourth, and fifth sets to win 3-2. Indiana Tech won the event on the men's side.

Women's Results
