Becoming a Student—Athlete at Central Missouri
Becoming a Student—Athlete at Central Missouri 2013-14 ~ UCM Jennies Bowling Media Guide ~ 13 Bowling at Central Missouri The 2013-14 season begins the 12th year for women’s bowling as a varsity athletic team at UCM. Throughout this period, Central Missouri has annually been recognized as one of the nation’s best among all National Collegiate Athletics Association schools. Due to post-season requirements, Central is limited in playing against women’s collegiate squads outside the NCAA system. However, UCM maintains membership with the sport’s governing body and uses select events against USBC teams to provide elite- caliber competition and experience during the year. Student-athletes come to Central from all over the world, bringing with them a wealth of talent and knowledge to share on and off the lanes. The ladies learn immediately that academics must be the first priority and life as a UCM student-athlete must be build around the balance of working and giving to your teammates, school and community. The women serve as tremendous ambassadors for UCM and learn a great deal about themselves during their time here. Bowling student-athletes compete at an NCAA Division I level in this National Collegiate championship sport. Although the program is relatively young compared to others on campus, several teams and individuals have left lasting impressions. Amber Gazverde became the first bowling athlete to be become National Player of the Year and inductee in the UCM Athletics Hall of Fame. Four ladies (Wells, Jimenez, Caldwell and Peak) have earned spots on the U.S. National Teams.
