In this episode of the Professional House Bowlers podcast, we’re joined by Jasmine Schulze, a standout bowler from the legendary Coldwater program and a current third-year student-athlete at Wright State University. As the first female guest on the show, Jasmine takes us through her journey from being "conned" into a bowling league in the sixth grade to becoming a State Champion and a three-time MAC Bowler of the Year.

Jasmine provides an insider's look at what she calls the "copy and paste" coaching style of Rick Hartings, which has turned Coldwater into a powerhouse of technical precision. She reflects on the intense focus required to perform in the 10th frame, sharing a "cold chill" inducing story about needing a strike to beat top-ranked Nebraska at the collegiate level—a shot she knew was perfect the moment it left her hand.

The conversation dives deep into the mental side of the sport, with Jasmine admitting she struggles with being a "nervous test taker" but finds her calm in team-oriented baker games. She also shares her experience stepping into the coaching box to lead the Coldwater girls to a second-place finish while Rick was ill, proving that the Cavalier tradition is in good hands. From discussing her "illegal" favorite bowling ball to the "on-fine" realization that she has to miss sectionals for a cousin's wedding, Jasmine offers a humorous and grounded look at the life of an elite bowler. Whether it’s talking to cops in Orlando or navigating the strict sportsmanship rules of the NCAA, Jasmine’s passion for the game and her hometown remains the strike-throwing center of her life.
