JeFF lewen is on a 242 Pace

by Frank WeilerMURRIETA—Jeff Lewen,

Jr. rolled a 758 (232 - 247 - 279) last week, after posting a 749 (258 - 267 - 224) the week before. These scores have raised his average to 242 in CAL OAK’S Monday “600” Scratch League.

ANDY MILLER is right behind Jeff at 232. Andy rolled a 719 (224 - 206- 289) last week to keep pace.

The high score of the week, 768 (277 - 212 - 279), was bowled by Justin Borland. Justin holds the CAL OAK’S record for a three game set (858) and is averaging 229.

Other good scores were bowled by SHEILA LAWTON 713 (221 - 256 - 236), JOEL COOK 704 (258 - 211 - 235), and FLOYD CLAY 696 (224 - 216 - 256). All of our bowlers are grateful to the BOWLING NEWS for supporting Citrus Belt bowlers.

NORWALK — Gary Forman, a Fountain Bowl partner, was elected President of the B.C.S.C. (Bowling Centers of Southern California) at their meeting last Wednesday, October 26th. Forman has been involved in bowling for the past 30 years on various levels. Currently his offices include:

• President of Orange County U.S.B.C. • Head of California State Youth Committee • President of B.C.S.C. Give him a challenge, consider it done! Thanks to Gary and the Fountain Bowl organization, Southern California bowlers were able to bowl with the Pros and enjoy the excitement of a P.B.A. Tour Stop. Congratulations Gary Forman and thank you for deeds “Past — Present and Future”.

battle oF the 7 - 10’s

by Carol ManciniNORWALK — Dean Lopez

(the man on the Bowling News computer) and I were having a discussion about “How many 7-10 splits are converted in a month?” “How many compared to 300 games?’’.

In my opinion, the best way to find the answer is to poll our readers! You came through re-porting 300 games, how about reporting 7-10 split pick-ups? AND help me win a bet.

Of course with the aid of computer scoring, we can check on the feat.

Just e-mail or phone in the date, place and name. We will find a spot to give you a Toot Toot! We are making the offer starting this week—for one year.

What do you think! More 300’s or 7-10 split pick-ups? E-mail us at [email protected]. Phone: 562-807-3600.

LAS VEGAS, Nev. (Oct. 31, 2011) – Experienced play-ers who return to a specific baseball field, golf course or bowling center are always pre-pared to deal with the unique playing surfaces or scoring en-vironment of the host facility.

That conclusion applies to the field of Professional Bowl-ers Association and interna-tional players who are about to descend on South Point Bowling Center in Las Vegas for the 2011 renewal of the PBA World Series of Bowling, which gets underway Friday.

For bowlers who competed in the WSOB a year ago at South Point, the expectation is “friction.” In bowling context, that means lane surfaces com-bined with high-performance bowling balls will result in lots of hook. Even with a unique application of lane conditioner

experienced Players expecting Plenty of “Friction” During Pba world Series of bowling

Large field of players, lots of games mean bowling balls will hook at South Point Bowling Centerfreshly applied to the lanes for every squad, every day, the heavy traffic of more than 200 bowlers bowling lots of games will result in more and more ball movement as each round progresses.

Developing strategies for attacking the variety of lane conditioning patterns and the transition of oil as the day moves along are critical as-pects of professional bowl-ing. Every experienced player will arrive at South Point with an arsenal of bowling balls designed to react differently, depending upon the lane con-ditioning pattern, angle of at-tack and how much the various “lane oil” patterns will change as each round progresses. It’s always a guessing game, but at the professional level, the bowler who makes the best educated decisions usually

comes out ahead of the curve.While format changes for

this year’s World Series have been modified so that all events will be contested on freshly-oiled lanes, and fewer games per day are involved, the fun-damental challenges from a year ago remain in place.

What did returning play-ers learn about South Point a year ago that is helping them prepare for 2011?

● “The one thing I remem-ber from last year is that South Point hooks,” said 16-time PBA Tour title winner Jason Couch of Clermont, Fla. “I have drilled some weaker balls to combat the friction.”

● “There seemed to be more friction (at South Point) than I would have thought, so I’m hoping to have a little different arsenal with me that

Saturday’s will be the days for qualifying, followed by a finals format on Sunday’s. The majority of our tournaments, will be 10 games straight for the qualifying, unless specified differently from the WCBT Tournament Director, along with a format for the finals determined by amount of entries in each tournament. Annual dues for all bowlers will be $60.00, and will be good for one year from the day you sign up.

There will also be a point system to enter, and earn more points, when you cash in the tourna-ments and the point system will be posted at each tournament. The majority of the singles tourna-ments, will be $170.00 Entry Fees. The Doubles tournaments will have different entry fees.

CHAPTER 6The Release

The importance of the release is obvious; it launches your shot down the lane. Not so obvious, but equally important, is what your release tells you. If the ball comes off your hand smoothly, it is saying that you performed the prior skills properly, that your wrist was well positioned, that your timing was good, and that you have made a good shot. If the release goes poorly, it is telling you that a mistake was made at some point in your delivery. This is the skill that gives your game that “personal touch,” literally. Muscle power is allowed here because it can be applied beneficially, without too much concern for inconsistency. That hav-ing been said, it’s time to learn how to take your best shot!

TechniqueInitiate the release. 1. Your arm is swinging forward. The instant it reaches vertical, relax your grip on the ball by removing the pressure your thumb is exerting on it. Concen-trate on feeling the weight of the ball shift onto your fingers.

Apply lift. 2. With the thumb now free of the ball, maintain the rigid posture of your wrist as much as possible. Focus on accelerating your hand along the target line, using the strength of your fingers to loft the ball out onto the lane (lift and loft are synonymous).

Tip: Like the other skills, a consistent release happens in your mind first. The ball should not be allowed to simply pull itself free from your grip. Flip a coin like a referee at a football game. Notice that the thumb moves and the fingers don’t. This action is identical to how a bowling ball is released! To ensure a consistent and reliable release, mentally picture yourself flipping a coin out onto the lanes.Tip: Wearing a wrist support is HIGHLY recommended. It will help prevent the wrist from flexing during the release. This keeps the fingers in the ball longer, allowing them to impart more rotation to the ball. It also allows you to feel what your wrist is doing during the armswing (when you see can’t it). Finally, it is important to note that tremendous forces affect the wrist during the entire delivery. These devices provide the support necessary to greatly reduce the severity of “repetitive motion injuries” bowlers are prone to suffer.Tip: After the ball has left your hand, pose at the foul line until the ball has passed over its target! This ensures the consistency of your whole delivery. It also allows you to study the line the ball travels and look for changing lane conditions. If you can’t maintain your balance, the indication is that you have delivered the ball too aggressively. You will be inconsistent, and unable to observe or adjust to changes in the lane conditions.

DiscussionLike the line, volumes could be written about the release, but it is not the intention of this book to beat any subject to death. The Essentials of Bowling is about teaching you what you need to know to bowl like a champion. The faster that happens, the sooner you can get to the lanes and put these lessons to the test! Let’s take a quick look at the elements that make up a consistent release so that you will understand how to perform and adjust the final skill.

1. Initiating the release: The release terminates the “forward” portion of the armswing. It happens in the blink of an eye, so you don’t have the luxury of time to think about it, unless as instructed, you have been focused on this exact instant since the end of the back-swing. This point is actually predetermined for you. It occurs when your arm is straight up and down because that is when the ball is exerting its greatest force against your grip. Take advantage of the laws of physics by just going along with what nature is telling you to do anyway: let the ball roll off your thumb. When the thumb releases its pressure, you will feel the weight of the ball shift onto your fingers. This will happen both quickly and automatically. It is referred to as “the explosion point” because it is where you may apply your strength to “explode” out of the ball. 2. Loft the ball: If you choose to apply power, now is the time because only the muscles in your fingers will be involved and they aren’t powerful enough to significantly alter the path of your shot. They are, however, extremely consistent! Employing them at this point provides your ball with additional rotation. This makes the ball hook more and produces a more effective “mix” of the pins when it strikes them.Tip: For the sake of your consistency, think “all or nothing” when deciding whether or not to apply power as you loft the ball onto the lane. Anything else promotes variations in the ball’s path.While simply letting go of the ball may sound like the easiest thing in the world, it is not! It must be done with such precise consistency and relies on so many other conditions that it is actually quite a challenging skill to perfect. These conditions include:

the fit of your equipment•timing•your grip•the execution of the previous skills•your wrist position•

All these physical elements must come together perfectly for a smooth release that produces a con-sistent and devastating shot. Practicing the skills as described and purchasing quality equipment help ensure that happens. However, there is one more element to consider in the development of your release. It is intangible but may be the most important part of your game. It is your confidence!This is the mental element that is the secret to ensuring that your release is successful over and over again! Lack of confidence is what makes you believe that you must “steer” the ball. It prevents you from trusting yourself and giving up control of the ball, hanging on to it beyond that explosion point! This leads to shots that are pulled off the target line, which leads to bad scores, which causes a lack of confidence, which leads to more poor shots, which leads to....well, you get the idea. It’s a vicious cycle.Learning and practicing good technique breaks that cycle. It is much easier to unleash your shot when you know, without a doubt, that your stance, pushaway, and armswing have your ball on the target line. Understand that the techniques you have mastered will make the ball roll over its target again and again! Rest assured that it will hit the pins with more than enough power to make mincement of them. Once you do, you will actually look forward to the release because you will enjoy watching the show. That’s what confidence is all about. Murphy’s law states, “If something can go wrong, it will and at the worst possible moment!” The release is that worst possible moment! Practice your skills, trust yourself, turn that ball loose with confidence, and enjoy the successes you will have earned. Murphy will just have to wait!

will hopefully make me much more competitive this time around,” said two-time PBA Tour winner Jack Jurek of Lackawanna, N.Y. “I wasn’t bowling well coming into the World Series last year and so far I feel a little better about my game than I did last year this time.”

● “South Point last year had a lot of friction, but every year the patterns are a little different and the field of players is different and normally better prepared as well,” said Sean Rash of Montgomery, Ill., a four-time PBA Tour title winner who made two WSOB finals in 2010. “Knowing that I had a lot of success last year in that building will help me. I also have been bowling all over the world to prepare myself for the WSOB and when I’m home, I practice shooting a lot of spares and using different hand positions to be able to play every part of the lane.”

● “Unfortunately I didn’t take notes last year,” said 2010 PBA World Champion Tom Smallwood, Saginaw, Mich. “Pair to pair they were pretty different, so Team Brunswick is getting there a few days early and we WILL be taking notes on every pair we bowl on.”

● “I plan on doing the same thing I did last year: grind out the tough pairs and hammer the pairs that give me a little something,” said three-time PBA Tour winner Bill O’Neill. “I learned that after a few games, using a lot of angle through the front worked out pretty good. That has been a part of my game that has improved tremen-dously over the past couple of years. Hopefully for me that house tendency continues.”

● “I didn’t really bowl very well last year, so hopefully I will make much better shots and make better decisions on how to play the lanes,” said PBA Hall of Famer Walter Ray Williams Jr. of Ocala, Fla.

● “Last year I definitely learned the way the house wants to play the pattern and I will be using that knowledge to my advantage,” said Scott Norton of Costa Mesa, Calif., who won his first title in the Chameleon Open on his way to winning PBA Rookie of the Year honors. “But I fully expect everyone else to have learned as well. The fields continue to get stronger as people adapt and learn with each new experience, so it makes winning not only that much harder, but that much more rewarding when it happens.”

● “What I focus on are the things I can control and the knowledge that regardless of the format, bowling is the same everywhere: 10 pins up, my job is to knock them down,” said two-time PBA Tour titlist Mike DeVaney of Murrieta, Calif. “Simplify the game and your chances at success are vastly increased. What I learned at South Point last year is knowledge I plan to use to my advantage and not something that needs to be made public. I have no interest in sharing any information with the competition.”

● “Speed rules at the South Point,” said PBA Hall of Famer Norm Duke. “Because of the extra friction in the front part of the lane, balls tend to slow down quicker than normal and it’s the players who can get good movement on their shots while keeping their speed up that will do well because speed keeps the pins lively and the carry percentage is better.”

The third annual PBA World Series of Bowling gets underway Friday with an eight-player, winner-take-all $45,000 BowlersDeals.com All-In Showdown that will be webcast live on pba.com’s exclu-sive online bowling channel, Xtra Frame. Participants will include Chris Barnes, Double Oak, Texas; Chris Warren, Grants Pass, Ore.; Joe Paluszek, Bensalem, Pa.; Brian Himmler, Cincinnati; Ronnie Russell, Indianapolis; Bill O’Neill, Southampton, Pa.; Sean Rash, Montgomery, Ill., and Tommy Jones, Simpsonville, S.C.

Qualifying in the Bayer Viper Open, the first of eight events that will award PBA Tour titles during the two-week festival, gets un-derway on Saturday, Nov. 5. For a complete World Series schedule, visit pba.com.

Yang Wins 3rd ABTA at Forest Lanes (L-R)Andrew Lung 4th, Chris Kelly 3rd, Catherine Cheung (Tao’s Fiancee & ABTA Member), Tao Yang Champion $2,900 and Matt Fukuda (Runnerup).

LAKE FOREST — Wel-come everyone to the weekly edition of ABTA news. We returned to Lake Forest where we saw 216 entries come out to the classy center, and sup-port the ABTA. We had a de-cent shot for the tournament making the cut scores of +46 for the men and +42 for the women. The Super Seniors added to the board (3 men and 1 female) were Bob Lo-max (+36), Dan West (+35), and Kathy McCollom (-35). Super Seniors are men 63 and over, and for the women you just need to be a young 55. That would give us 43 bowl-ers making it to the semi-finals this week.

Our top qualifier for the Men was Matt Garcia with a +185, and for the women it was Faye Josafat with a +88. Each of them will get a paid entry into a future regular ABTA event. The Match Series was worth $676. Matt drew a 378. We had no bowlers who had this score, so we will carry that over. At our next event we will estimate the Match Series at $1,100 at Covina Bowl. For the 3-6-9 Roll-off, the final bowler was Danny Guevarra who missed on his first shot and received a $50 consola-tion for Merlot Money:-)). The 3-6-9 is maxed out at $3,000 at Covina Bowl, and we have a back-up pot that is $2,000 and growing.

In our optional doubles, finishing in first were Don R. Johnson and Mike J. Moore with a 1396 for $140. Finish-ing second was Steve Brode

2nd of our 3 week Handicap Bonus Special3-6-9 Pot is maxed at $3,000 at Covina bowl $2,000 in reserve

and Mike J Moore with 1380 for $120. There were a total of $1,420 paid out in doubles and 24 paid spots with low to cash of 1286.

In the semis, Andrew Lung led the field the first and sec-ond games but had a bad third game allowing Matt Fukuda to overtake him to be the top qualifer with a +84 and would sit out to bowl the title match. Coming in second was Jose Acosta with a +74 to sit out the first round. It took a +24 for the men and -11 for the women. Our top seed( Matt ) in semi-finals had the honor of drawing the Match Game worth $3,500 which is maxed out. Our top seed drew a 262. After a review of all the scores bowled, we had no bowlers who shot that score so it will be carried over. We will have $3,500 next week at Covina Bowl, and continue to build on the second and third back-up pots.

This would bring us to our top 16 Match Play finals. In the first round, the seven losers were Roger Romero, Scott R. Johnson, Barbara Miller, Bob-bie McCollum, Ryan Nam, Shaun Suase, and Tom Maz-zulla, They received checks of $100 each. In the second round. The losers were Jose Acosta, Derrick Brown, Matt Garcia, and Kathy McCollom. They received checks of $110 each. This would get us down to the final five bowlers. At this point, our horses would be paying anywhere from a low of $34 (Tao Yang) to a high of $83 (Andrew Navarro) de-

pending on who would win. In this round we saw Chris Kelly (9th seed) bowling An-drew Lung (4th seed). Chris bowled the best in this one in a 230-205 win. In this another good match, Tao would con-tinue his hot bowling with a 253 to 220 over Andrew Na-varro advancing to the semi-final match. Both Andrew’s (Lung and Navarro) finished in 4th and 5th getting checks for $120 each. They Bowled very well

Now Chris Kelly and Tao Yang(who lets say loves to bowl at Forest Lanes) meet. Chris was looking to have a back to back week of being in the title match. He would win this match with a 240 to 205 and advance to the semi final. In the “horses” we would see Tao paying $34 and Chris pay-ing $43 if they would win their match. This would be a match where we would see both bowlers continue their good bowling. Tao fell behind early with opens in the 2nd and 5th frames to put him down by 20 pins after the 5th frame. But then he seemed to find his shot and start striking. It was the 8th frame where he would pull into the lead by 4 pins. But the excitement was not over. Chris would leave the 4-6-7 in the 9th frame. He threw a hard shot and miraculoulsy picked it up from the back. Tao would finish with strikes in the 9th and 10th frame to take the match with a 213/271 to Chris at 201/245 and send Tao to the title match. Finishing in 3rd place was Chris Kelly

this week for $200. For those lucky “investors” that had Tao as a horse, he paid $34.

The title game was set and bowled on Lanes 9 and 10. At the start of the match, you could tell this was going to be one of those matches no one wanted to witness except for those from the Mou-Liu league. We are sorry for all who witnessed the poor showing by someone who did not want to win it, but lets give the con-grats and nice bowling to one of our fine deserving members in Tao Yang. He finished with a 169/227 to 112/158 and his 3rd ABTA title. He would take home $1,000 for 1st place and $1,700 for max.Cash and Car-ry, $100 for wearing his ABTA shirt, and $100 for bowling with a Global 900 ball, for a total of $2,900. Finishing in 2nd place on a reduced entry for $300 was Matt Fukuda. And in a special moment fol-lowing the win, Tao got down on his knees and made a spe-cial night of it by proposing to Catherine Cheung. Of course she said a big “YES”. Con-grats to both of you from the ABTA.

Champion Tao Yang, one of the finest Young Gentle-man I have ever met, is from Montery Park and used a Bank drilled at Columbia Pro shop. He is now engaged to Cathe-rine. He would like to thank all the Mou-Liu bowlers watch-ing. A special thank you to Catherine for saying “yes” and all his friends for staying to witness his win and proposal, ABTA and staff.

Chris Kelly (3rd Place) is from Fontana and used a Raw Profit drilled at the South Point. Chris is married to Valinda and they have 1 son Brandon. He would like to thank all his supporters and of course his wife Valinda, and next week he hopes to take 1st place this time:-))

The weekly ball sponsor winner of a 900 Global Ball was Manuel Laygo, and he won the Wisdom. Each time you bowl, you get a free ticket for this prize given away by our Sponsor, 900 Global. In our weekly raffle, the win-ners for an ABTA regular en-try was Edrich Miller and Fel Garcia. Winning a 2 ball tote was Roger Romero. Winning a Thanksgiving entry was Bud Zagorski. Winning 2 nights in Las Vegas for our January events was Edrich Miller. The rest of the results are in the payoff column in this paper.

More on our Champ Tao Yang! Is there any truth to the rumor that he wants the ABTA to go to Forest once a month? He won the last two events there:-__ just kidding but I will say that His Proposal to Catherine was SO Nice and in a Very Romantic Man-ner on the approach. He and Catherine are ABTA regulars and a fine your couple you

will not find anywhere. He is a handsome Polite Gentleman and she is a Beautiful Young Lady. Congrats to You and we all wish you a wonderful Life together in married bliss.

It’s history folks as Tao Yang enters the archives as our latest champion. Hope to see you at Covina Bowl! If you have any comments or sugges-tions, use the contact page on our Website to send comments to us. Thank you for being an ABTA member until then! See you all at Covina for a good one.

Will YOU Marry Me? There was a first in the ABTA Saturday night as in Romantic Fashion, just after winning the title at For-est Lanes, Tao Dennis Yang proposed marriage to his Beautiful Girlfriend Catherine Ah-Cat Cheung and she said Yes!! Look-ing on are ABTA Regulars Roy Li who is engaged to Catherine’s Sister Alin and Samson Kong who voices his approval. All are ABTA Regulars and finer people You will not meet. We wish you a wonderful future. God Bless.


tiCk...tiCk....tiCk.....tiCk......

booM! by Frank Weiler

MURRIETA — JOE De-CAMPO, Jr. has been hot in Oc-tober, at Cal Oaks Bowl.

A ticking time bomb on the lanes. The last couple of Thurs-days have seen him roll 788 and 773, with a high game of 289. On the Monday between his tor-rid Thursdays, he rolled a 729. That’s averaging 254!

When I heard about Joe and went to see him bowl, I was surprised to see a bowler with his own cheerleaders. When Joe would get up to bowl his cheerleaders (teammates) would chant TICK...TICK...TICK...TICK...BOOM! Then they chanted it again and again. Be-fore long Joe’s ball would hit the pins with a BOOM. What was this all about?

I found that Joe was the most deliberate bowler I have seen since watching PATRICK AL-LEN on the PBA tour. Just like Allen, Joe Jr. takes a long time to set up. He stares down at his ball and hand position for at least ten seconds before starting his pushaway. Then Joe takes five very slow steps to the foul line. Subsequently, he rolls a very ac-curate ball straight to the pocket. He does it time after time. Per-fect form, perfect timing, and perfect strikes again and again. His secret to outpacing the com-petition is DELIBERATION.

I have never seen a bowler roll such a straight ball for such high scores. Joe releases his ball at the five board, rolls it in a trajectory over the second arrow in a perfectly straight line to the pocket. I found that you don’t have to roll a big hook or apply a lot of revolutions to a bowl-ing ball to score. When you’re smooth as silk and as accurate as a chalk line, you will bowl high scores.

Great bowling Mr. DeCam-po. The BOWLING NEWS sa-lutes you and all the strokers of the world.

Tri-Star Vending got revenge against Pro Approach thanks to Jason Belmo, er, Mark Myers and his fantastic 290-246-300/836 set. Jared Lawrence 234-268-243/745, Larry Campbell 228-203/630 and David Yamauchi 212-228/614 also showed up in their sweep over Kevin Peterson 248-254-247/749, Johany Polony 217-234-267/718 and Adam McKenzie 236-227-204/667.

Sam Hitchcock 247-255-250/752 led his Tifco Industries team to four wins over Sysco. Danny Ontiveros 236-256-217/709, Mike Faraci 267-235/690 and Aimee Gomez 227/608 also pitched in. Deeronn Booker 226-299-201/726, Anthony Barrone 259-229-207/695, Charlie Kinstler 214-228-202/644 and Paul Barraco 244-214/628 bowled well for Sysco.

Threadworks took four from Erickson Foods in the three man battle. Jeff Seesholtz 205-236-279/720, Eric Snow 221-242-238/701 and Paul Varela 224-232-204/660 got the better end of the split over Will Jackson 258-212-227/697 and George Reister 258-211-225/694.

Thankfully, the score fest is over, and the time to make shots and shoot spares is on its way. Take care and be prepared for the second round super short Cheetah pattern on Monday!

Gold Coast Hotel Walks away with First round

anita MurtiShaw’S

700 leads team to title

by Frank WeilerMURRIETA—Anita Mur-

tishaw used her Storm Victory Road to bowl 700 (226 - 230 - 244) recently to lead her FAST LANES PRO SHOP team to the first block title in Cal Oaks 640 Scratch league.

It was position round for the first eight week block and Anita’s team trailed the MISS DONUTS team by eight points. The Fast Lanes team needed a decisive win to move into first place. With Anita leading the way, they did it with a 20 - 4 point win.

Anita had help from her teammates BRIENT KILL-INGS and husband JIM MUR-TISHAW. The guys averaged over 230 per game to contrib-ute to the victory.

The Miss Donuts team were at a disadvantage when SEAN KUCERA couldn’t bowl. The team missed his 227 average. Also, team captain SENG TONG was injured and on crutches right up until bowling started. He contributed a he-roic 600 on one good leg. An-chorman NICK REED rolled a 728 (263 - 230 - 235) to take three of four points from Mr. Murtishaw, but sometimes one man can’t carry a team.

Great bowling Anita and congratulations on your team victory. The BOWLING NEWS salutes you and your teammates.

LAKE FOREST—What a thrill it is to watch someone shoot a 300 game, especially their first 300. Not many of us can hold our focus or nerves together for twelve straight strikes. But steve August did it! Wednesday night in the slots of Fun league, he shot a 300 game and a 660 series. What did he have to say? “It’s about frikking time.” Congratula-tions Steve! Bowling in the same league Bill waddington shot a 278 and a pair of 212’s for a huge 702. However, it was steven zimmerman who shot the high series of the night with “power busting games” of 259-246-244 for a 749! Yikes ! Other great scores over the 650 mark were shot by Richard Shannon 234-224-210 / 668, Bob Harvey 234-214-207 / 655 and Chris Schnars 238-221 / 650.

Atta girl Temmy.gil jAy mEn’s: Frank Givens bowls high game of the week with a nice 246 / 546. Then the infamous Don Capo-bianco shot a 243 / 628, followed by George Deblois 226 / 590, and Rod Harrison 208-202 / 586.nFl sCrAtCh triOs: Daryl kowalik was a “master piece in action” this past week with consistently high games of 248-269-233-264 for a super 1014 series.

RANCHO CUCAMONGA — Hello there and get ready for this week’s double JAT Farm Club tournament update. First we step back in time to October 2nd and our third tournament of the season. This was held at Forest Lanes and we had twenty-seven bowlers traveling deep down south. This tournament was also our first of three PBA Challenges of the season. The pattern put out for our bowlers (to my knowledge) was the Chameleon and it appears that this layout was a little difficult for the young bowlers. The tournament average for the entire field was a mere 157.7, meaning we’ll have to work on that shot more often. JAT thanks the staff and management of Forest Lanes and I want to thank Executive Director – David Yamauchi, and Dino Bidwell for taking care of the JAT Farm Club in my absence. But more so, a big thank you to the bowlers and supporters for going about business in their usual, wonderful manner.

The qualifying round only produced three reportable scores, coming from Daniel Martinez 227, Baujee Harlan 225, and Chel-sea Houston 222. The cut to advance into match play came in at minus 182, while Valerie Riggin led the field with at minus 38.

In match play, things got a little better as either the pattern started spreading and/or the bowlers started to figure it out. Here we found Tyler Salverda making a nine position jump behind scores of 252-236-224. Very good. We also had a few more make this article with Bianca Taylor 243, Harlan 235, Riggin 224-226, and Michal Ma 222.

The finals then started with 5th seed Martinez (-45) meeting the 4th seed Ashley Dunn (-38). Martinez took this close game 160-155 to advance to meet the 3rd seed Harlan (+64). Harlan knew that low scoring wasn’t going to cut it, and proceeded to dismiss Martinez 214-167. Now Harlan met the 2nd seed Sal-verda (+80) and as he figured it would take high scoring from here on out. Harlan did just that with a 210, but Salverda topped that big time with the tournament high game of 256 and a chance at his first Farm Club title. But first he had to get pass the top seed Riggin (+103) in the best of three games. The first game was capture by Riggin 223-177 and Salverda even things up with a second game win 224-202. With things all even and one game to go, it looks like the two battled frame by frame. The ending score was a squeaker 204-201, going to Riggin for her second straight title. Congratulations Valerie.

That brings us up to current date, where this past Sunday the group visited Brunswick Deer Creek Lanes. Here we had thirty-three bowlers and they had a lot to prove with the scoring and was eager to get back on to the lanes after the long layoff. A big thank you to Brunswick Deer Creek Lanes as the accommoda-tions were wonderful.

The qualifying round had some the following super scores posted by: Treven Goldsmith 278-257-221, Frank Aldrete 258-276, Tyler Salverda 244-257-222-228-247, Bert Dominick 257, and Chelsea Houston 252-242. Excellent bowling! But wait there’s more: Jason Tilden 226-248, Terrence Robinson 244-225-247, Zachary Smith 236-247, Jason Meister 245-229, Matthew Zweig 243, Matthew Green 243, Kyle Duster 238, Marguerite Evans 236, Ashley Dunn, 226, Karlie Loop 226, Bianca Taylor 223-220, and Evan Blevins 220. Salverda led the group after five games at plus 198 and 16th spot (last to advance in to the second round) came in at minus 41. Scoring like day and night between the last two tournaments.

And in match play the high scoring kept on coming. Tilden posted up the tournament high game with a near perfect 279. We also had reportable scores from Robinson 259-257, Duster 248, Salverda 246-237-226, James Knapp 242-226, Dominick 234, Smith 234, Taylor 228-221, Goldsmith 226, Aldrete 226, Dunn 225, and Matt Miller 224. The big jump during match play was from Knapp with a seven position movement. Unfortunately, it just wasn’t quite enough to get into the finals.

Instead we found the 5th Taylor (+195) starting off the finals against the 4th seed Tilden (+212). Taylor set the tone of high scoring for the finals with a big 245-175 win. She now faced off with the 3rd seed Goldsmith (+331) and kept things going 206-187. However, now Taylor faced the 2nd seed Robinson (+353), who had been watching closely and knew what it would take to win. Taylor jumped out quickly, but Robinson came back and stayed steady. When it was all over Robinson had the victory 259-233, and the honor to bowl for the title. Now he was up

Brunswick Deer Creek Lanes – Oct. 30th, 2011 (l-r): Terrence Robinson – 2nd; Tyler Salverda – 1st; Bianca Taylor – 3rd

Forest Lanes – October 2nd, 2011 (l-r): Tyler Salverda – 2nd; Valerie Riggin – 1st; BJ Harlan – 3rd.

against the top seed Salverda (+411) who had looked strong all tournament and show it with the first game win 247-205. Robinson fought back to show he had skills too and took the second game 237-210. The last and deciding game was a nail biter. Both bowlers were dead on through much of the match. Salverda though did have an open frame early and was on a 269 pace through seven, while Robinson was strike clean for as many frames. A spare for Robinson tighten things a bit to allow for experience (or lack of experi-ence) to kick in. Robinson could only put together spares to try and hold his lead, hoping it would be enough. Salverda meanwhile close the gap some more when the first ball in the tenth frame yielded a 3-pin split. Regaining his compo-sure (experience) Salverda picked up the needed split and buried the pocket on his last throw, for a 244-242 title vic-tory. Congratulations Tyler on your first title.

I want to mention that there was a number of condolences and consultation needed throughout the entire tourna-ment. I’m proud of the sports-manship that was displayed by our bowlers and parents. For you bowlers, you have NOTH-ING to feel bad or ashamed about. You are all still young, learning, and bursting with tal-ent. Our next tournament will be this coming Sunday (11/06) at Cal Bowl in Lakewood. This special tournament will be an Adult/Member (Adult/Jr) Doubles tournament and we’ll be running two divi-sions, Scratch (410 and over) and Handicap (409 and under). The cost is $40 per bowler ($80 p/team) and please re-member to bring average veri-fication (adults, please be hon-est) if you plan on being in the handicap division. Also for the adults, this is a junior event and although there is not a for-mal dress code, please keep it mature and bowling related.

If there are any bowlers that do not yet have a partner, please contact the directors through our website (bowljat.org) in advance, and we’ll put together an “in need” list and try to match up singles. Also, there is always a good chance of someone needing a partner that morning, so just show up.

Have a great week and get in plenty of practice. I hope to see all at Cal Bowl.

to victoryby Frank Weiler

MURRIETA—THERESE LLOYD rolled a 623 (202 - 227 - 194) Monday night to lead her Brylaw Accounting team to victory, three convinc-ing wins.

Using her new Track 503C, Lloyd averaged six strikes a game. She has always bowled well with Track bowling balls and wants to thank Jim Mur-tishaw for recommending them. If it weren’t for eight ten pins, Lloyd would have had a 700 series. Not bad for a senior lady.

Lloyd asked me to thank the BOWLING NEWS for recognizing her bowling ac-complishments.

next tournament this Sunday – november 6Adult/Member Doubles – Cal Bowl, Lakewood

wesley low Jr. is Four-for-FourThe JAT headed east to Rancho Cucamonga and Brunswick Deer Creek Lanes. A field of 14 bowlers took the lanes in the Open Division and scoring was very healthy. After 5 games of qualify-ing, Joshua Taylor led at +204 followed by the red-hot Wesley Low Jr. at +197 and Justin Sims at +166 on the strength of his perfect 300 game in game 3. Low-to-qualify was Luke Holley at +60. The top-8 advanced to match-play to qualify for the top-4 stepladder where Wesley Low Jr. took the lead at +453 followed by Bobby Hornacek at +436, Joshua Taylor at +408 and low-to-advance Parker Brooks at +286 on the strength of a 265 game to double jump himself into the 4th place position. In the quar-terfinal match, 4th seed Parker Brooks defeated 3rd seed Joshua Taylor 229-196 to advance to meet 2nd seed Bobby Hornacek. Hornacek was dialed in as he advanced to the title match 257-246 over Brooks, setting up a rematch against top-seeded Wesley Low Jr. Once again, as in the past three events, Wesley remained sharp and bowled his way to a 234-214 win and his fourth con-secutive JAT Open title. Wesley remains undefeated this season going four-for-four and winning his 7th JAT title. Congratula-tions!

DOWNEY—This week’s ar-ticle will cover both weeks 10 and 11 bowling.

For our first position round of the season on October 24, we were welcomed to Cerritos Lanes. We arrived to find newly resurfaced approaches and hot coffee. Special thanks to John and staff for having team rosters entered and every-thing ready to bowl.

Super hot shot of the day was Kim Cato with 225 and 234 games to post a league season high 627 series. Additional bowlers mas-tering the lanes were Ella Wilson with a 215 game and 543 series, Dee Phipps with a 202 game and 541 series. Also posting a 541 se-ries was Mary Dixon. Other high performers were Kathy Parish with 539 series, Ora McCormick with 523, Mary Smyth with 518, Loreda Silk with 215/514, Cil Moons with 512, Vi Wilson at 506, Joy Bennett at 502, Pearlie Watts at 501, and Linda Kenny with 500.

First position round was very exciting with several team stand-ing shifts and position ties. Cal 1 remained in first place with 21 wins, closely followed by West-minister 2 at 20 wins. Alone in the third spot is Cal 2 with 19 wins. Fountain 1 secured the fourth spot with 17 wins and Keystone 1 fifth with 16.5 wins. Next is a tie for sixth place at 16 wins between Westminister 1 and Valley View 1. Another tie in seventh place with 17 wins each are Fountain Bowl 2 and Cerritos 1. Next is Valley View 2 with 13.5 wins, Cerritos 2 at 12 wins, and Keystone 2 at 11 wins. Del Rio and Bowling News round out the field with 10 wins. Competition continues to ramp up as we approach first round com-pletion.

The league was off to Del Rio for Halloween bowling. Barb and Betty treated the bowlers with See’s lollipops.

Christine was ready for us with team rosters entered and the coffee shop was open. This writer was pleased to meet Dean Lopez who makes our weekly articles in the Bowling News look good. Thanks to both of them for their support and help.

Doris Lewis set the pace today with 214 and 204 games for a nice 609 series. Margo McClain also posted a 210 game and nice 579 series. Others finding their grove were Vi Wilson with a 571 series, Ella Wilson with 549, Bernice Bennett with 542, Dee Phipps with 538, Mary Smyth with 211/531, Hedy Schoner with 513, Linda Kenny with 506 and Cil Moons with 504. For those who may not know, all reported scores are scratch.

Cal 1 continues to hold on to the top team spot with 23 wins. Westminister 2 is second with 21 wins. Cal 2 is right on their heels with 20 wins and Keystone 1 is challenging with 19.5 wins. Fill-ing out the middle is Fountain 1 at 18 wins followed by Cerritos 1 and Westminister 1 tied at 17 wins. Another tie at 16 wins is Valley View 1 and Fountain 2. Valley View 2 has 14.5 wins, Keystone 2 had 13 wins and the closing with Del Rio, Bowling News and Cer-ritos 2 tied at 12 wins each.

It was nice to have Lou Colus-si come by to visit these past two weeks. We would also like to thank the many subs that have joined us this season.

Special appreciation to Barba-ra Bishop and Martha Underwood for all their help with the brackets, 50/50 tickets and league envelops. Their help allows me to be on the lanes bowling.

Doris Lewis and Marie Collier have been working very diligently to put together a bus/hotel pack-age for our March Vegas sweeps. They announced today that pack-age information and deposit re-quirements will be available next week.

Sincerest condolences to Margo McClain in the loss of her sister.
