A style of team bowling used primarily in college tournaments with five to a team.  

Each bowler bowls 2 of the 10 frames in one game.  Leadoff bowls frames 1 and 5, second bowlers 2 and 6, and so on.  Anchor bowls 5 and 10th frame as well as 11th and 12th if strikes are thrown.

I believe this is a great format and really forces each bowler to root for their team.  There is no individual focus and makes for some really exciting matches.

That is what I assumed it was, but was not sure. Thanks for the info.
