[Husker] Wish for the list - Bowling!

[Tony Lambert]

Steve, It must have been a slow sports night Wednesday or Thursday ;)) I 
don't remember which. anyway ESPNU had Maryland Eastern shore and Delaware 
State
on. So I watched it. it was very entertaining to watch the teams. They had 
there little cheers when a bowler would get ready to bowl. I didn't realize 
that bowling was a Varsity sport though.
