Optional Musical Accompaniment

Vanderbilt bowling finished Saturday in second place at the Prairie View A&M Invitational behind Nebraska — which, well, is exactly how they finished last weekend’s Northeast Classic. The Commodores will have a shot at winning the tournament today (which started at 8:30 AM on bowltv.com.)

Women’s tennis beat Furman on Saturday, improving to 2-0 on the season and setting up a match with NC State today for the ITA regional championship. The men’s team lost to USC yesterday and will face Memphis at 1 PM CT.

Men’s basketball lost 72-66 to Texas A&M on Saturday night, erasing a 13-point lead in the second half before falling apart late. The women’s team will get a shot at its first SEC win today at noon CT against... Texas A&M. The Aggies are 1-7 in the SEC and only picked up their first SEC win last Sunday.
