# 44 Landon McConnell
York, Nebraska
Freshman
As a kid, Landon never gave bowling a thought he was just having fun throwing the ball with his right hand. At about the age of 12 Landon really wanted to give bowling a shot but, this time he was left handed, not quite sure where that came from but it felt normal.
Landon started one-handed and although it wasn’t horrible he wasn’t able to get enough speed and revs on the ball as he had hoped. So, his coach in high school had offered him the idea of throwing the ball 2-handed. Landon was skeptical but he gave it a shot.
It turned out to be the right decision as he has hit huge milestones such as multiple 700 series and even a 299 game when he was 15. Landon committed to SNU with a goal to earn his degree in Physical Therapy.
