The Nebraska Cornhuskers bowling team represents the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, competing as an independent in NCAA Division I. The program began as a club team, but became a varsity sport in 1996 and an official NCAA sport in 2003. The Cornhuskers have since established themselves as the NCAA's premier bowling program. Nebraska has won ten national championships, finished runner-up four times, and is the only program to qualify for every NCAA tournament.
