(2/15) - Currently in Women’s College Bowling, Martin Methodist College’s Hayley Beavis is the Nations top Bowler with a 204.561 average in 57 games. Hayley has played in eight bowling tournaments so far this season and has placed in the top 15 in all but one. She took home top honors placing first in the Honike Bearcat Open in Cincinnati, Ohio in January.

 

In college bowling the RedHawks compete with much larger schools. Most being Division I state universities or colleges. MMC is one of the smallest schools competing in bowling at a collegiate level. Hayley has bowled in 57 games where the average among the top 50 bowlers in the nation is 42 games. Only a hand full of other bowlers have bowled in as many games as Hayley.

 

Hayley is a native of South Hampton, England and this is her second season on the RedHawks bowling team. Before coming to Martin Methodist College she attended Bournemouth University in England. She has been bowling since she was 14 and bowled for England’s National Team for three years. She made her way to Tennessee when she met RedHawks Coach Norm Titus at the Kegel Bowling Training Center in Lake Wales, Fla. She decided to come to MMC to pursue a college education and for the opportunity to bowl at the collegiate level. 

 

Hayley and the RedHawks will be competing again on March 14-16 in Chattanooga, Tenn. at the USCC Intercollegiate Singles Qualifier.
