ARLINGTON, Texas | The Jackson State bowling team's run in the Southwestern Athletic Conference (SWAC) Championship Tournament ended Sunday afternoon as Alabama A&M eliminated the Tigers 3-2 in a nail-biter with a trip to the SWAC Championship on the line.

The Tigers carried their momentum from baker play into the best-of-seven series as they climbed to a 3-0 lead over the Bulldogs. Unfortunately, the Tigers could not put the Bulldogs down as they rallied all the way back. Alabama A&M closed the Tigers SWAC championship hopes as they won the best of seven series 4-3 to advance.
