ROCKAWAY, NJ - Steven

while rolling in the Wednesday

WELCH, Minn. – Walter Ray Williams Jr. won his ninth career PBA50 Tour title and
Norm Duke withstood a challenge from Tom Baker for PBA50 Player of the Year honors
in the PBA50 Treasure Island Resort & Casino Open presented by Hammer Wednesday
at Island Xtreme Bowl.
In another all-Hall of Fame championship match, Williams of Ocala, Florida, who won
the USBC Senior Masters in June for his first title of the season, defeated Baker 268-224
in the championship match. With a win, Baker could have earned the 16 points necessary
to move ahead of Duke of Clermont, Florida, for the Player of the Year title.
“It’s a great way to end a season,” said Williams, who is the PBA Tour’s all-time titles
leader with 47 wins. “I had a good season and when you can win against the talent that’s
out here now it makes it that much more satisfying.
“I think Norm owes me dinner but you can’t take anything away from him – he bowled
awesome all year,” Williams added.
Duke left the door open for Baker to make a run at Player of the Year when the two Hall
of Famers slugged it out in the Round of 8 with Baker winning the best-of-three match 2
games to 1.
Duke’s nearest competitor in the Player of the Year race heading into the final tourna-
ment of the season was Hall of Famer Pete Weber of St. Ann, Missouri, eight points
behind, but he had to withdraw from the tournament prior to match play because of ill-
ness which required a hospital visit. He was treated and released.
In the semifinal matches, Baker of King, North Carolina, defeated Hall of Famer Randy
Pedersen of Orlando, 246-162 and Williams defeated Don Breeden of Urbandale, Iowa,
279-190, to advance to the championship match.
Williams’ 268 game in the title match and 279 in the semifinal match were his highest
games of the tournament.
“I saved the best for last and that was the time to have them,” said Williams who was
PBA50 Player of the year in 2012 and 2013. “Earlier in the day I wasn’t really executing
as well as I wanted but I was able to fine tune my adjustments at the right time.”
Duke joined Baker as the only players to win PBA50 Player of the Year and Rookie of
the Year in the same season. Baker earned both honors in 2005 which was the start of a
record four consecutive PBA50 Player of the Year crowns for the 12-time PBA50 Tour
winner.
“Player of the Year is what you aspire to and it’s the pinnacle of the year,” Duke said.
“When I got beat by Tom in the Round of 8, the ball wasn’t in my court and that’s never
a comfortable situation, but either way, I had a blast all season.”
Also determined at the conclusion of the tournament which was seen live on pba’s
online bowling channel Xtra Frame, were the top eight players in competition points who
earned an entry into World Series of Bowling VI in Las Vegas Oct. 24-Nov. 2 and a berth
in the World Series PBA Champions Challenge PBA50 qualifier. The qualifier will deter-
mine the two players who will compete in the finals to be televised by ESPN.

SEATTLE - Professional Bowlers
Association Hall of Famer and
Senior Tour standout Gene Stus of
Allen Park,
Mich., died
Monday August
18, 2014, at age
74.
As a competi-
tive bowler for
most of his adult
life, Stus had
always wondered
how he might
have done on the
PBA Tour. But
the opportunity to
compete in Tour
c o m p e t i t i o n
didn’t present
itself until he was able to retire
from General Motors after 32
years at the age of 50 and he
became a regular on the Senior
Tour, now called the PBA50 Tour.
Even as a late-bloomer in the
professional ranks, Stus’ career on
the Senior Tour would ultimately
lead to his induction into the PBA
Hall of Fame in 2012.
Stus’ 11 PBA50 Tour titles ranks
fifth on the all-time list behind fel-
low Hall of Famers John
Handegard with 14 titles and Gary
Dickinson, Dale Eagle and Tom
Baker, each with 12.
In 1992, Stus earned Senior
Player of the Year honors thanks in
part to winning two titles. In July
of that year he became the first
Senior Tour player to bowl a 300
game on national
television, defeat-
ing Don Gilman,
300-188, in the
Pacific Cal Bowl
Senior Open in
Lakewood, Calif.
“It was an
honor to bowl
with the sport’s
greats who I
admired my
whole life and I
always wondered
how I would
measure up,” said
Stus, in his Hall
of Fame acceptance speech.
“When I was able to retire at 50, I
started to get back to bowling seri-
ously and found I still had the
touch.
“Bowling on the Senior Tour was
a lot more than achieving the
dream of bowling with the greats
of the game,” he added. “Just to be
around them and to remember all
the fun we had on and off the lanes
for those years was an experience
I’ll never forget.”
Stus had 50 top-five finishes in
173 PBA50 Tour Tournaments.
According to good friend and
fellow PBA member Dave
Bernhardt, Stus died as a result of
US Wins Three
Team Titles at
Tournament of
the AmericasARLINGTON, Texas – The
United States captured three
team titles at the 52nd Lee
Evans Tournament of the

In addition to the three team
titles, the U.S. squad had the all-
events winner in nine of the 10
divisions and took the National
All-Events title in four of the
five divisions of the week-long
tournament held at Strikers
Lanes.
The tournament had divisions

for men, 45-plus for women),
Super Senior (ages 60-plus for
men, 55-plus for women), Junior
A (ages 16-19) and Junior B
(ages 12-15) players.
Leading by just 27 pins enter-
ing the final game, Mexico held
off Team USA players Brittni
Hamilton of Webster, New York,
Holly Harris of Long Prairie,
Minnesota, Rob Gotchall of
Lincoln, Nebraska, and AJ
Johnson of Oswego, Illinois, to
take the Adult title with a 8,142
pinfall total for the 10 games.
Team USA finished with 8,114
pins while Puerto Rico (7,992)
was third. Hamilton won the
Adult Women all-events title for
the second consecutive year.
The Junior Team USA squad of
Julia Bond of Aurora, Illinois,
Breanna Clemmer of Clover,
South Carolina, Andrew
Anderson of Holly, Michigan,
and Ronnie Fujita of El
Sobrante, California, posted a
7,769 pinfall total to easily out-
distance Venezuela (7,122) in
the Junior A division. Anderson
took home the all-events title for
the second consecutive year
while Clemmer, the Junior B all-
events winner last year, won the
Junior A Women all-events title.
