How can I get in a PBAX League? There isn't one in my hometown and I can't find one anywhere around me. Any suggestions? Since i'm just a sophomore I probably won't be in one this year but hopefully my junior and senior year.

I would talk with a few of the alley owners in your area. If there is enough interest, they may start one up. Best thing you can do is make it known that a sport shot is what you want. Also, where your HS team practices. I would talk to them. They may work with you guys and put down a sport shot time to time.

I used to bowl two years ago for Oberlin College's bowling team in Ohio. Most of our tournaments were formatted in the following way:
5 team games, where in each one, each member would roll one game, and then all 5 scores were added up - and after the 5 team games, we would do 15 Baker games in blocks of three at a time against another team. In the Bakers, one bowler would bowl in the first and sixth frames, the second bowler in the second and seventh frames and so on.

Earlier in my college bowling career modified house shots or sport shots were typical, but toward the end of my college days, it seemed like almost every tournament was either a PBA pattern, or a modified PBA pattern. I remember the modified Shark pattern and the modified Cheetah patterns. Hope this helps answer the initial question a little more in depth. - SimplyAmazuring

Thanks Sa, and you guys bowled a total of 20 games every match??

Justin, this is the setup for tournaments. Within those 20 games it'd be against a bunch of different teams. Then all the teams are ranked according to team averages, which is elaborate and I don't know the details.
