team will submit the team lineup and playing order to the scorekeeper/monitor first. Any team making

manager. Each bowling ball registered must contain official manufacturer identifying mark, logo, and
trademark or product name imprinted over the heaviest portion of the ball prior to being drilled. If your
equipment does not have any of these identifying markings, you must have the bowling ball’s official

advance to the ITC, a two-game Baker match will be bowled. If a tie still exists after this two-game Baker
match, the tie will be broken by a ninth and 10th frame roll-off. The same athletes who rolled the ninth
and 10th frame during the roll-off match will bowl in the roll-off in the same positions. If a tie still exists,
the same athletes will continue rolling ninth and 10th frames alternating lanes until the tie is resolved.
Lanes used for ties will be determined by the tournament manager. Team starting lane will be determined
by a coin toss.
ITC Qualifying: In the event there is a tie for any position at the completion of qualifying, the team with the
highest pin total for the last 12 Baker games will be assigned the higher seed. If the 12 game total is a
tie, the highest Baker game for all 24 games will be used. If the high game is a tie, each subsequent high
game will be used until the tie is broken.

policies. Collegiate bowlers and collegiate coaches, as representatives of the bowling community, are
among the most visible players in the industry. Because of America’s fascination with sports and those
who play, a unique platform exists to be a role model, mentor or spokesperson. USBC Collegiate, the bowling industry and your institution benefit from this exposure. However, this platform brings with it a set of

set by institutions across the country and other collegiate athletic governing bodies. A balanced studentathlete will be a responsible citizen who achieves academically and performs athletically. The code does
not constitute an exhaustive list of punishable misconduct but rather prescribes standards to guide individual choices. Student-athletes who violate these standards will be subject to disciplinary action by USBC
Collegiate as well as the institution they represent in order to promote their own personal development and
to protect and maintain order and stability in USBC Collegiate.

CODE OF CONDUCT
USBC Collegiate and National Collegiate Bowling Coaches Association
Philosophy
USBC Collegiate, the national governing body of intercollegiate bowling, in conjunction with the National
Collegiate Bowling Coaches Association, provides collegiate bowling opportunities to enhance students’
academic, athletic and personal development. Given this perspective, USBC Collegiate and the NCBCA
accept responsibility to provide a competitive environment that stands for the highest ideals in competition, character, ethics and sportsmanship.
Membership with USBC Collegiate and participation in a certified intercollegiate bowling program is
considered a privilege. In order to maintain that membership, student-athletes and coaches are expected
to demonstrate good sportsmanship, honesty, integrity and respect for others as well as abide by all
applicable rules, policies, regulations and laws. These include federal and state regulations and laws,
18
2013-2014 USBC COLLEGIATE RULEBOOK
USBC Collegiate does not condone the use of alcohol and promotes an environment in which choosing not
to drink alcoholic beverages is preferred and socially acceptable. USBC Collegiate and the NCBCA firmly
believe the use of alcohol can be detrimental to the physical and mental well-being of student-athletes.
The use of alcohol can seriously interfere with the performance of individuals as students and as athletes
and can be extremely dangerous to the student-athlete and his/her teammates.
Alcohol abuse is a progressive disorder in which physical and psychological dependency can develop.
The negative physical and mental effects of the abuse of alcohol are well documented. Even low levels of
alcohol impair brain function, judgment, alertness, coordination and reflexes. It is the responsibility of all
student-athletes and coaches to know the risks and damaging effects associated with alcohol use and
abuse.
USBC Collegiate and NCBCA Policies
The following policies are in effect during activities associated with any USBC Collegiate event:
Alcohol Policy
USBC Collegiate and NCBCA members are expected to abstain from the possession, use or distribution
of alcoholic beverages. Student-athletes and coaches participating in any event conducted by USBC
Collegiate are prohibited from consuming and/or possessing alcohol. Teams also must adhere to this
policy at the USBC Intercollegiate Team Championships Sectional host bowling center as well as at the
Intercollegiate Team Championships and Intercollegiate Singles Championships host bowling centers and
host hotels. This policy applies from the tournament scheduled date of arrival through the tournament
scheduled date of departure.
Illegal Drug Policy
USBC Collegiate and NCBCA firmly believe that the use of illegal and/or performance enhancing drugs
(excluding those prescribed by a physician to treat specific medical conditions) is totally inconsistent
with the purpose of intercollegiate athletics and can be detrimental to the physical and mental well-being
of student-athletes and teammates. The use of drugs can seriously interfere with the performance of
individuals as students and as athletes and can be extremely dangerous to the student-athlete and
his/her teammates. The use of illegal drugs by student-athletes is strictly prohibited at all times.
Tobacco Policy
USBC Collegiate and NCBCA do not condone the use of tobacco, including the use of smokeless tobacco.
USBC Collegiate and the NCBCA firmly believe the use of tobacco products can be detrimental to the
physical and mental well-being of student-athletes. The negative effects of tobacco abuse are well
2013-2014 USBC COLLEGIATE RULEBOOK
19
documented. USBC Collegiate and the NCBCA strongly encourage all student-athletes and coaches to
completely abstain from the use of tobacco products. Coaches and student-athletes are prohibited from
using tobacco products during all practice, competition and related events, whether they are competing,
and/or while in team uniform at any time.
NCBCA will continue their responsibility to provide a competitive environment that stands for the highest
ideals in competition, character, ethics and sportsmanship. We will do this by continuous review, development and enforcement of conduct standards, rules and policies in the best interest of the overall sport,
each program and competition, including regular and post-season play.
Sportsmanship Policy
One of the primary objectives of competition is to develop and foster respect for fellow participants, coaches,
game officials and spectators. Participants and coaches should recognize their responsibility for proper
conduct at the Sectional Qualifiers and Championship events. Coaches and/or athletes should recognize
and assume responsibility for the actions of themselves and their team members.
USBC Collegiate and NCBCA members are ambassadors of collegiate bowling and enjoy certain privileges
of such status. They also bear the responsibility of behaving with dignity and sportsmanship. Coaches and
student-athletes shall conduct themselves at all times reflecting the high standards of honor and dignity
that should characterize participation in competitive intercollegiate sports. Coaches and student-athletes
shall conduct themselves in a manner reflecting positively on the reputation of themselves, their representative institutions, the USBC Intercollegiate Team Championships, Intercollegiate Singles Championships
and USBC Collegiate.
Officials, coaches, participants and spectators shall act in the highest ideals of sportsmanship at all
times. Unsportsmanlike conduct includes actions which are unbecoming to an ethical, fair and honorable
individual. It consists of, but is not limited to, acts of deceit, disrespect, vulgarity, verbal or physical abuse
and taunting or unseemly celebrations. Officials, coaches, participants, parents, athletic administrators, program directors and spectators should keep in mind that actions which are done in a manner to
disconcert or be derogatory toward the opposing team(s) or a specific opponent or individual is considered
inappropriate. While intense and emotional game action and conduct are certainly a responsible part of
intercollegiate sports contests, cheering and other support should always be positive in nature.
Violations of Code of Conduct
It is the personal responsibility of all student-athletes and coaches to adhere to all applicable rules,
policies, regulations and laws concerning the use of alcohol, drugs, tobacco and sportsmanship at all
events conducted by USBC Collegiate. Ignorance of the rules is not an excuse. Student-athletes are
expected to know the rules to protect their eligibility, the eligibility of their teammates and that of the
institution they represent. Student-athletes and/or teams who are found responsible for behavior that
violates any of these policies may be subject to disciplinary action by USBC Collegiate as well as the
institution they represent.
Violations of the Code of Conduct by a student-athlete, team, and/or coach may result in immediate disqualification of the individual and/or team from the event in which the violation occurred. Any disqualification from a USBC Collegiate recognized event will be reviewed by USBC. Violations by the student-athlete or
coach may result in loss of membership with USBC Collegiate for a minimum of one year. Student-athletes
who are suspended by USBC Collegiate lose collegiate eligibility equal to the time they are suspended. The
institution also may be subject to loss of membership in USBC Collegiate and denied participation in all
events conducted by USBC Collegiate beginning the following season for one full year. If a student-athlete
opts to transfer from the suspended institution to an eligible institution, an additional year will be added to
the standard USBC Collegiate Transfer Rule.
USBC’s administrative decisions may be appealed to the chairman of the USBC Legal and Legislative
Committee. The appeal must be filed in writing within 10 days of the date of the letter notifying the studentathlete of the administrative decision. A statement of the reasons for the appeal must be included. The
appeal should be forwarded to USBC Headquarters, Attention: USBC Collegiate.
All persons involved in collegiate bowling must continue their efforts to facilitate its growth in a positive
way, which includes the development of student-athletes, better coaching and officiating with a continuing
emphasis on good sportsmanship by student-athletes, coaches and spectators. USBC Collegiate and the

finishers in each division to the USBC Intercollegiate Team Championships’ 32-team field of 16 men’s
and 16 women’s teams.
Schools have two opportunities to advance into post-season Sectional Qualifying events.
1 . Conference – Each school is eligible to declare one USBC Collegiate certified conference in which it
will attempt to advance to the post-season Sectional competition. The school shall declare through
the Standardized USBC Collegiate Eligibility Form and notify its conference commissioner or secretary who will also report that information on the USBC Collegiate Conference Certification Application. For a conference to be eligible as a qualifier to Sectionals, the conference must have:
a. Six USBC Collegiate certified men’s teams representing different schools, all who have declared
that conference as their Sectional qualifier and/or four USBC Collegiate certified women’s
teams representing different schools, all who have declared that conference as their Sectional
qualifier.
b. C
onference competition must consist of a minimum 18 equivalent team games.
c. The conference must be certified by USBC Collegiate.
d. The conference champion will advance to Sectional Qualifying competition.
2. Team Ranking System – Once it is determined how many teams will advance from conferences, the
rest of the Sectional Qualifying field will be completed using the Team Ranking System. This system
ranks schools based on their performance in USBC Collegiate certified events.
During the regular season, a school earns points based on its finish in up to 10 USBC Collegiate certified
competitions. The 10 events shall include no more than six Tier I tournaments and the remainder of the 10
events filled by Tier II tournaments and final conference standings (if applicable).
1. If a school participates in more than six Tier I tournaments, the points earned shall be averaged and
multiplied by six to fit within the limit.
2. If a school competes in more Tier II tournaments and conferences (if applicable) than required to
complete the 10-event limit, these points shall be averaged and multiplied by the applicable number to complete the limit.
Note: For the 2014-15 season the 10 events for calculation will include no more than 5 Tier I events
when calculating Team Ranking systems.
Tier I Tournaments
1. Competition must be completed by Sunday, Feb. 16, 2014, to be eligible for point consideration.

and the TRS points will not be recalculated. Teams missing the deadline begin to earn points with the
day USBC Collegiate approved membership and eligibility application on file. Refer to USBC Collegiate
rules for membership and eligibility guidelines.
2.All eligibility issues for first semester/quarter must be cleared by October 31. Student-athletes not
cleared by this date will be ruled ineligible for first semester/quarter.
3.All eligibility issues for second semester/quarter must be cleared by February 15. Studentathletes not cleared by this date will be ruled ineligible for second semester/quarter and deemed
ineligible for post-season competition.
4.Collegiate approved membership and eligibility application is on file. Refer to USBC Collegiate Rules for
membership and eligibility guidelines.
5. TRS points will be awarded to five-player teams only. Intercollegiate teams competing with less than five players at any point during an event will not receive TRS points.
6. If an ineligible player is used in any competition, his/her team will receive no TRS Points.
The competition final standings will remain and the TRS points will not be recalculated.
7.Each school is ranked separately in men’s and women’s divisions with mixed teams being ranked in the
men’s division.
8.Any USBC Collegiate certified school that participates in an eligible competition will receive points.
9. If a school has a team(s) in two or more conferences, the school will only receive points from the USBC
Collegiate certified conference declared as its advancer into post-season Sectional Qualifiers.
10.If a school has a team(s) in two or more tournaments that are held concurrently, each tournament shall
be counted separately.
11.If a competition only has one division, the final standings will be split into a men’s division and women’s
division for point consideration. If the competition and each division separately meet all requirements,
then the men’s and women’s schools will receive applicable points.
12.For a Tier I or Tier II event that uses a roll-off format that drops prior pinfall or a stepladder
final to determine the champion or order of finish, the final standings for point consideration
shall be determined by the qualifying results before such roll-off or stepladder finals
13.If two or more schools tie for a position, the points are split and any fractions of points are dropped.
14.All schools receive one point for participation and one point for every school it finishes ahead of in the
final standings. No points are awarded for any schools tied.
15.Standings will be updated weekly through the regular season, pending receipt of competition results.
Standings can be found on the Collegiate section of BOWL.com.
16.Teams withdrawing from a tournament or not completing the competition schedule are not eligible for
TRS points.
17.Schools will be ranked from high to low based on the TRS formula. Schools that have competed in only
one event shall receive the total power points earned multiplied by the event factor. Schools that have
competed in two or more events shall receive the average of the school’s power points earned multiplied
by the event factor, plus two times the total power points earned. This will be prorated for schools that
exceed the Tier I or 10-total event limits. The average of the power points earned per event will be calculated by dividing the total regular-season points earned by the number of regular-season competitions
competed in, dropping any fractional amount. The event factor is seven.
