    EL PASO, Texas - The 2010 United States Bowling Congress Women's

    Championships in El Paso, Texas, kicked off its 100-day run, as the

    first of nearly 6,000 teams took to the tournament lanes at the recent-

    ly-transformed El Paso Convention and Performing Arts Center.

    As the USBC Women's Championships entered a convention-center

    setting for the first time in its 91-year history, bowlers and spectators

    were treated to the opening ceremonies, which helped usher the tour-

    nament into a new era.

    USBC crews began to transform the El Paso Convention and

    Performing Arts Center into a state-of-the-art 48-lane bowling facilityon Jan. 25. Many of the bowlers on the opening squad appreciated the

    efforts taken to build a one-of-a-kind setting for women bowlers.

    Also new to the Women's Championships this year is the introduction

    of three average-based divisions, instead of five, which will be contest-

    ed using 100-percent handicap. The divisions are named Diamond,

    Ruby and Sapphire.

    2010 USBC WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIPS GETS UNDERWAY IN EL PASO

    WEST BABYLON, N.Y. - Brian

    Ziesig of Levittown, N.Y., won theProfessional Bowlers Association

    GEICO Mark Roth Plastic Ball

    Championship Sunday at AMF

    Babylon Lanes to become the first

    amateur to win a Lumber

    Liquidators PBA Tour event since

    2002.

    Ziesig rolled three strikes in the

    10th frame in the championship

    match to tie Australian two-hander

    Jason Belmonte 247-247 in regula-

    tion which forced a one-ball, sud-

    den-death roll-off that was won by

    Ziesig with a strike to Belmonte's

    nine-count, leaving the 7 pin.

    "Whenever I tried to over-hook the ball, it seemed

    I wouldn't get the carry so those last few shots Ipaid special attention to avoiding that," Ziesig said.

    "Believe it or not I really wasn't that nervous so that

    helped me throw those shots the way I wanted to."

    "This is my 15 minutes of fame" said the 35-year-

    old Ziesig, who works for a bowling supply compa-

    ny. "It's back to work tomorrow morning. To be

    able to accomplish this on national TV in front of a

    hometown crowd is really kind of a fantasy."

    Ziesig, who earned $25,000 for the win, had been

    a Touring professional in the 1998, '99 and 2000

    seasons with a previous best finish of 10th. He

    earned his way into the tournament field through a

    tour qualifying round earlier in the week.

    The 26-year-old Belmonte, who earned $13,000

    for second, was hoping to win his second career

    title having won The Bowling Foundation Long

    Island Classic here last year to become the first

    bowler to win a PBA Tour title using a two-handed

    delivery.

    "The best you can hope for is to throw 10 good

    shots but I threw nine-what can you do?" said

    Belmonte, who finished second for the third time

    this season. "I left a 10 pin in the eighth frame

    because I got behind the ball too much and I just

    didn't get the break."

    In the opening stepladder match, Wayne Garber

    of Modesto, Calif., defeated two-time Tour titlist

    Michael Machuga of Erie, Pa., 258-245. Machuga

    earned $5,000 for fifth.

    In the second match, the Tour's all-time career

    win leader with 47 titles, Walter Ray Williams Jr.,

    defeated Garber 280-211. In the third match Ziesig

    defeated Williams 255-237 to advance to the cham-

    pionship match.

    William's third place finish was enough to put

    him in a tie for the Player of the Year race with Bill

    O'Neill going into the final event of the season this

    week. Williams earned $8,000 for third and Garber

    $6,000 for fourth.

    The Plastic Ball Championship required all play-

    ers to use identical plastic bowling balls and is the

    one event on the PBA Tour that turns back the clockon ball technology creating an equalized playing

    field and eliminating the reliance on today's high-

    powered equipment.

    "Often, the most extraordinary opportunities are hidden among the

    seemingly insignificant events of life. If we do not pay attention to these

    events, we can easily miss the opportunities."

    -Jim Rohn

    Everyone gets to play.

    That should be the theme put

    forth over and over again

    whenever discussions of the

    merits of youth bowling enter

    any conversation. It is one of

    bowlings greatest assets and

    advantages over other sports.

    Talk shows devote hours to

    the subject of how to come up

    with ways to guarantee that

    every youngster gets to play.

    There are all kinds of special

    rules in youth baseball, foot-

    ball, basketball, soccer and

    other sports aimed at solving

    the problem.

    In some baseball and softball

    leagues up to 15 kids are

    allowed to come to bat whether

    they are in the lineup or not. In

    various youth sports there are

    mandates that insure that

    every kid gets his playing-

    minute minimum. Getting to

    play is the problem for the

    young players, their parents,

    the coaches and the sports. It

    also has been proposed in some

    areas that no score is kept, and

    the end of winning and losing.

    How silly can you get? In

    sports and in life there are

    winners and losers, and win or

    lose, there is learning.

    Many sports have invested

    millions into developing inter-

    est in their sport among

    youngsters. That isnt meant

    simply to create future stars

    but also to create players and

    fans.Bowling is woefully weak in

    the spending department and

    too many junior programs and

    school organizations from pre-

    school through college suffer.

    Bowling can be expensive for

    youngsters and their families.

    Young bowlers should not be

    viewed merely as a possible

    source of current income, but

    as the lifeblood of the sport in

    pumping new life forever and

    ever. And it is vital for every

    organization in bowling to

    fully recognize that fact of

    bowling life.

    Bowlings biggest plus with

    youngsters is that everyone

    gets to play, not in a forced

    way, but in a full participatory

    status. Junior bowlers can be

    classed according to average.

    Leagues can have two three or

    more on a team, and there is

    always room for one more.

    And they all get to play. And

    they all get to know how they

    did as individuals or as team

    members. Boys learn early

    that girls can bowl well, too,

    and they dont feel nearly as

    bad as their elders of their

    counterparts in other sports

    when they get bowled over by

    a female. Another plus for

    youth bowling is that boys and

    girls get to know each other

    better in various competitive

    as well as social situations.

    Parents almost dread going

    to a sporting contest when

    their children are border

    players, good enough to play,

    but not good enough to be a

    sure thing. Parents of young

    league bowlers know their

    youngsters will be in action,

    no matter how well they

    shoot, and parents know the

    kids will be in a classified sit-

    uation that is either competi-

    tive or is aided by a handicap

    procedure that makes for

    some semblance of equality,

    regardless of ability.

    Bowling is fortunate that it

    is a sport that can handle dif-

    ferences in age, size or abilityin probably the fairest man-

    ner of any sport. But bowling

    should be shouting from the

    rooftops to youngsters and

    parents and adults and edu-

    cators that this is the rarest of

    sports, the sport everyone

    gets to play in a meaningful

    way.

    Those kids who start bowling

    at two or three years of age

    with bumper bowling, can still

    be bowling decades, and even a

    century later, and the same

    will apply everyone gets to

    play.

    For PBA legend Mark Roth, the

    trip to West Babylon, Long Island,

    N.Y., for the Mark Roth Plastic Ball

    Championship provided him with

    an opportunity to visit with some

    old friends and recount memories

    of a storied career.

    One of those friends was fellow

    bowling great Johnny Petraglia.

    Both bowlers grew up in

    Brooklyn and would even-

    tually become fixtures on

    PBA Tour telecasts in the

    70s.

    Petraglia was granted aPBA Commissioners

    Exemption to compete in

    this weeks Plastic Ball

    Championship, named in

    honor of his long-time

    friend and rival, and

    Petraglias son Johnny Jr.

    also played in the event

    after earning a spot in the

    64-player field through the Tour

    Qualifying Round.

    This Roth-Petraglia reunion was

    different than any other, however.

    Thats because Roth, who will turn

    59 on April 10, is continuing his

    rehabilitation after suffering a

    severe stroke last May that left his

    left side paralyzed. Since the stroke

    he has worked hard to regain phys-

    ical function, improving to the point

    where he was able to make the trip

    to West Babylon with his wife

    Denise to take in some of the action

    at the tournament named in his

    honor.

    Just one year ago, Roth was rec-

    ognized as the fifth greatest player

    in the history of the PBA Tour, as

    part of the organizations 50th

    anniversary celebration. Petraglia,

    who turned 63 earlier this month,

    ranks 16th on that list. The right-

    handed Roth, a four-time player of

    the year, is tied with Pete Weber for

    third in career PBA Tour titles with

    34. The left-handed Petraglia owns

    14 titles, but is one of only five

    players in PBA history to win the

    Triple Crown (U.S. Open, PBA

    Tournament of Champions and

    PBA World Championship).

    Petraglia began his Tour career in

    1965, five years ahead of Roth, and

    for most of their hall of fame

    careers, both bowlers competed

    with plastic bowling balls. Both

    have witnessed the evolution of

    bowling technology since then, but

    memories of competing against

    each other in the old days of

    ancient technology are cherished by

    both.

    I like the idea of a tournament

    where you have to use plastic

    balls, Roth said. I wish I could

    bowl in this one.

    While both bowlers competed

    against each other often on Tour,

    Roths favorite memory of bowling

    against Petraglia was not in a Tour

    event.

    In the early 70s I bowled some

    action matches against John at

    Rainbow Lanes in Brooklyn, Roth

    said. It was just like a Tour event--

    there were more than 300 people

    there. They had people watching

    down the lanes all the way to the

    masking units.

    He was a good, tough, strong

    bowler, Roth said of Petraglia,

    but I always looked forward to the

    challenge of bowling against him.

    Petraglia said his most memo-

    rable moment of bowling against

    Roth was in 1978 when he beat

    Roth in a semifinal match, 298-249,

    in the Long Island Open (Petraglia

    went on to beat Jeff Mattingly in the

    championship match). But

    Roth returned the favor the

    following week, defeating

    Petraglia in the champi-

    onship match of the

    Greater Hartford (Conn.)Open.

    Those two weeks were

    not only my favorite mem-

    ories of bowling against

    Mark, but some of my

    favorite overall on Tour,

    said Petraglia. In Long

    Island, we had all of our

    family and friends there.

    Andy Varipapa was there, and all of

    the fans were really into the show as

    you can imagine.

    The next week in Connecticut

    Mark got his revenge by beating me

    190-something to 180-something to

    win the title. At that time he was

    using a plastic ball and I was still

    using rubber.

    But what Petraglia remembers

    most about Roth was how competi-

    tive he actually was.

    When Mark and I were both on

    the Brunswick staff we would do a

    lot of exhibitions and at some of

    those we would bowl doubles

    matches against local bowlers,

    Petraglia said. If we were in a

    match where the local bowlers were

    striking or had a chance to beat us,

    naturally the local fans would be

    pulling for them and sometimes I

    would get caught up in the excite-

    ment, too.

    But whenever that happened I

    remember Mark would always pull

    me aside and say, Cmon, we cant

    let these guys beat us.

    Its almost unheard of that two

    players as talented and competitive

    as Petraglia and Roth would con-

    cede anything to each other, but this

    week, without prompting, Petraglia

    said he is donating half of his earn-

    ings from the Plastic Ball

    Championship to Roth to help his

    friend with his staggering medical

    and rehabilitation bills. Its nothing

    new; he has been working hard to

    help raise money for Roth since

    learning of his stroke.

    Petraglia also represented his

    long-time friend by presenting thewinners check. Bowling in a tour-

    nament with my son and named

    after Mark Roth it doesnt get

    much better than that, Petraglia

    said.
