Tailynn Level - Women's Bowling

Tailynn Level of the Barton women's bowling team was voted the Women's Student-Athlete of the Year by the Athletic Department's coaches and staff.

The freshman from Bel Aire, Kansas, helped lead the Cougars to its first ever national championship, winning the NJCAA Women's Bowling National Championship at Royal Scott Lanes in Lansing, Michigan, this past spring.

Level began the three-day championship by winning the individual national championship, rolling games of 202, 278, and 183 for a 663 series, becoming Barton's third individual national champion in program history, joining Taylor Cessna's 2020-21 and Alexandria Newell's 2019-20 crowns.

In doubles action, Level teamed with Alexis Wareman to deliver a 20th place standing on a 970 series behind games of 300, 333, and 337.

Earlier in the season, Level placed 4th at the SWIBC IV and runner-up at the SWIBC V by setting a new program single-game record of 288 in her four-game 807 series (201.8 average).
