COLONIA, N.J. – As the 2025-26 Women's Bowling Season gets ready to begin this weekend for the Saints, they have been voted seventh in the East Coast Conference Preseason Coaches' Poll.

Women's Bowling finished 32-45 overall last year with a strong showing at the East Coast Conference Championship weekend. After day one of Championship weekend, the Saints were seeded second out of nine teams, the best the team has done in program history. D'Youville opened day two of the tournament with a big win over Adelphi University before falling to both Bryant University and Roberts Wesleyan University.

The Saints graduated four members of the team following last season, but welcome back three familiar faces for this season. D'Youville also adds four new faces to the team ready to help the Saints through their 2025-26 campaign.
