The Jets opened their 2025 campaign in Dallas, Texas, at the SWIBC I event. Despite a slow start, the team battled throughout the day to finish in 2nd place. The Jets were led by Junior
Kalin Ogata, who topped the individual standings and earned MVP honors after averaging an impressive 237.5 for the event.
The story was much different at SWIBC II, where the Jets came out strong and dominated from start to finish, leading the field by 243 pins to claim the championship. Senior
Noah Akiona finished 4th overall, averaging 209.5 and earning a spot on the All-Tournament Team.
Next up was the Jets' home event in Wichita for the third stop of the season. Over two consistent days of qualifying, the Jets secured the #2 seed heading into bracket play. In match play, the Jets swept Midland University (3–0) and Baker University (3–0) to advance to the championship match against Quincy University. Despite a strong effort, the Jets fell just short, losing 1–3 in the finals and finishing runner-up. Senior
Noah Akiona again led the way, averaging 223.3, finishing 4th individually, and earning his second All-Tournament Team honor of the season.
The Jets then traveled to Lawrence, Kansas, for the Jayhawk Championship. After Day 1, the Jets sat in 3rd place, setting up a strong push for Sunday. Led once again by Akiona, who averaged 220.0 and earned his third straight All-Tournament Team selection, the Jets moved into 2nd place after 16 baker games on Sunday morning. In the quarterfinals, the Jets faced Drury University in a hard-fought best-of-five series that went the distance. Drury narrowly prevailed in Game 5, eliminating the Jets, who finished in a tie for 5th place.
That marks four straight top-5 finishes to open the season for the Jets, showcasing their consistency and depth across events.
The Jets will be back in action November 7–9 at the Leatherneck Classic in Rockford, Illinois.
