Vizenfeld was phenomenal for Fairleigh Dickinson in what was only her second collegiate competition. The freshman, an Israeli who was cleared to compete by the NCAA in mid-November, posted a 20.34 frame average at the Virginia Union Invitational. She posted the ninth-highest traditional game average (197.0) of all individual competitors at the three-day tournament and was even better during the meet’s baker play portion. Helping the Knights to 10 match victories and a third-place finish in the highly-competitive field, Vizenfeld filled 87.7 percent of frames bowled and cashed in on more than half of her strike attempts. The first-year Knight threw 70 strikes in 131 chances (.534) over the course of the weekend. Unfazed by the quality of competition, Vizenfeld threw a 198 game in a traditional match against No. 4 Central Missouri. One match later, she turned in a 221-pin performance against NEC rival, and the nation’s No. 9 ranked team, Sacred Heart. She started in all of FDU’s matches at the Virginia Union Invitational two weeks after making her collegiate debut at the UMES Hawk Classic.
