per GopherSports:
Most football players have a unique hobby apart from being skilled between the lines. For Damarius Travis, that hobby is bowling.
"I used to always bowl in high school," said Travis, who attended Pensacola High School in Florida. "The defensive back corps liked to bowl, so we went out and challenged each other a lot. Jalen Spencer (junior defensive back at USF) was one of the guys and we used to go bowling all the time. It was just the hangout spot, just to get away."
Travis, now in his fourth season for the Golden Gophers, has used his love for the lanes to fill a competition void off the field and bring together the secondary unit for the team. The tight-knit group enjoys the battles both on the field and in the alley.
"It's pretty intense," Travis said. "We get talking, but only your performance matters. We're always competitive with everything, whether that is battles with your position or out-competing each other."
