Established in 1982, the William Paterson University club bowling team has a rich history filled with athletic and academic success. The widely-renowned program competes against club and varsity programs across the United States. In the past, the team has reached the Intercollegiate Team Championship (ITC) national tournament 19 times, earning a national championship in 1992 and national runner-up finish in 2016. The team's performance in the 2016 ITC national tournament also led to a television appearance on CBS Sports Network, which aired the championship match.
Recently, the team has qualified for the ITC national tournament in each of the last six seasons, including three consecutive top-five finishes in 2016, 2017 and 2018, and Brandon Vallone captured the 2022 ITC singles title. In addition, the club captured back-to-back Collegiate Club Championship national crowns in 2017 and 2018 before earning the title in 2024. The 2008 season saw the team land in the ITC all-time record books with the third-highest 16-game team total (3,475) and also the third-highest 32-game team total (6,757).
