KETTERING, Ohio – Professional Bowlers

Association Hall of Famer Tom Baker of King, N.C.,

won the PBA50 Dayton Classic presented by Roto

Grip to capture his 12th career PBA50 Tour title and

second of the season.

The 59-year-old Baker defeated fellow Hall of

Famer and top qualifier Norm Duke of Clermont, Fla.,

265-217, in the title match at Capri Lanes to join Dukeas the tour’s only two-time winners this season. The

win also propelled Baker into a three-way tie for sec-

ond on the PBA50 Tour career titles list with Gary

Dickinson and Dale Eagle. John Handegard leads the

list with 14 titles.

“When you bowl a great player like Norm you know

you’re going to have your hands full,” said Baker, who

also owns 10 PBA Tour titles. “I knew I was going to need

a good game. I think we were all a little surprised that the

lanes were playing a little straighter than we thought.

“I was fortunate to start the game with four strikes

and Norm struggled so I was able to build up a little bit

of a cushion which put me in good mindset as the

match went on.”

Baker’s win avenged a loss to Duke in the title match

of the UnitedHealthcare Sun Bowl In The Villages ear-

lier this season which Duke won 256-228.

“I told Norm that now we’re even,” said Baker, who

won his first title of the season in the Northern

California Classic in June. “With two tournaments leftthis season hopefully we’ll meet again to bowl for a

title, you never know.”

In the semifinal match, Baker defeated Hall of Famer

Brian Voss of Alpharetta, Ga., 213-203, to advance to

the title match. In the opening stepladder match, Voss

defeated two-time PBA Tour winner Jack Jurek of

Lackawanna, N.Y., 216-167. Jurek and Voss were both

trying for their first PBA50 Tour title.

Heading into the final two tournaments of the sea-

son, Baker moved into a tie with Pete Weber for sec-

ond in the PBA50 Player of the Year points race, 12

points behind Duke who leads.

2 SPORTS REPORTER August 13 - 19, 2014

RENO, Nev. - Herman Ferguson

of Los Angeles was one of 12

champions crowned at the 2014

United States Bowling Congress

Senior Championships, and he

earned his title with a clutch per-

formance in his final frames at the

National Bowling Stadium.

Ferguson qualified for the medal

round of the Open Division's 50-54

category on top of the standings

with a 1,441 total for six qualifyinggames, and he found himself in

good position to retain the top spot

after firing a 270 in his second

game.

Don Griffin of St. Louis, who

started the three-game medal

round in fourth place, made a late

charge and finished with a 290

game for a 732 series. The effort

forced Ferguson to strike on his

final four deliveries to secure the

victory. He finished with a 687

series and 2,128 total for his nine

games, just 10 pins ahead of

Griffin (2,118).

"I missed a bunch of 10 pins and

put myself in a situation I shouldn'thave been in," said Ferguson, a 51-

year-old right-hander making his

USBC Senior Championships

debut. "Don bowled great, and I

had to refocus and move up a little

on the lane to cut down on the cor-

ner pins. It was a great experience.

I got to meet a lot of good people

and made a lot of friends. That's

what it's all about. This is a great

tournament, and it means a lot to

win. I would be honored if I made

it back next year."

The 2014 Senior Championships

featured two divisions - Open and

Women's - with six age classifica-

tions (50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69,

70-74, 75 and above).

All competitors bowled six qual-

ifying games over two days, after which the field in each category

was cut to the top six bowlers, who

returned to the NBS on Wednesday

evening for the medal round. All

pinfall carried over, and winners

were determined by their nine-

game totals, which included hand-

icap.

In the 65-69 classification of the

Women's Division, Paulette

Swartz of Grand Forks, N.D.,

turned her fourth Senior

Championships appearance into

her most memorable as she cap-

tured her first title at the event.

The 70-year-old right-hander,

who qualified for the 2014 eventwhile she was 69 years old, fin-

ished second in Division C in 2008

and entered Wednesday's medal

round at the top of the standings.

The momentum carried into her

final three games, and she finished

with a nine-game scratch total of

1,576. She received 63 pins of

handicap per game and topped the

field with 2,143.

"I'm so excited," Swartz said.

"How do you explain winning first

place at a national tournament? It's

absolutely wonderful. I really felt

good today and worked really

hard."

Other winners in the Open

Division include: Ages 55-59 -

Patrick Foley, Sparks, Nev.; Ages

60-64 - Alex Inglet, Preston,Idaho; Ages 65-69 - Randall

Morgan, Burkesville, Ky.; Ages

70-74 - Rick Aldous, Winnipeg,

Manitoba, Canada; Ages 75 and

Above - George Vice, Turner, Ore.,

2,358.

Additional titles in the Women's

Division went to: Ages 50-54 -

Amy Neron, New West, British

Columbia, Canada; Ages 55-59 -

Clarita Laje, Milpitas, Calif.; Ages

60-64 - Jennie Nubie, Daly City,

Calif.; Ages 70-74 - Marilyn

Marshall, Deatsville, Ala.; Ages 75

and Above - Jackie McLellan,

Sarnia, Ontario, Canada.

Top prizes ranged from $900-$1,150. Each winner received a

crystal bowling pin, runners-up

earned commemorative clocks and

third-place finishers received

plaques.

The 2014 Senior Championships

is a national event for bowlers who

qualified through their state's sen-

ior tournament. This year's event

featured more than 400 partici-

pants from across the United States

and Canada vying for a share of a

prize fund of more than $40,000.

Champions Crowned at 2014 USBC Senior ChampionshipsBy Matt Cannizzaro - USBC

ARLINGTON, Texas - With hopes of making following competitive

bowling easier and simpler for a majority of people and mainstream

media, World Bowling has created a new group tasked with exploring

alternative scoring systems.

World Bowling president and CEO Kevin Dornberger has put togeth-

er an Alternate Bowling Scoring System working group that will find a

way to engage non-bowling spectators to help the sport grow.

"The hope is that coming up with a simpler format that is easy for non-

bowling spectators to embrace will lead to a path to inclusion in the

Olympic Games," Dornberger said. "Our current scoring system is very

confusing to people who do not know anything about bowling, and we

need to take a hard look at the possibility of adoption of an alternatescoring system."

Currently at the World Championships, for example, a traditional

approach to format and scoring is utilized. Bowlers and teams bowl tra-

ditional 10-frame games with six games of qualifying leading to one-

game semifinals and finals.

"Every aspect of the format and scoring of our events is up for review,"

Dornberger said. "We need a scoring system for spectator and TV pres-

entation that cannot lengthen the process, must be understandable by lit-

erate people, and preferably have more wins and losses than once every

twenty minutes, without destroying the credibility of the sport."

To help accomplish the goal of coming up with options, Dornberger

has put together an all-star working group from around the world of

bowling leaders, athletes, coaches, media and commercial bowling

industry executives.

The group includes:

- Micael Hamberg (Sweden), former chairman, Swedish Bowling

Federation, CO-CHAIR - Brian Graham (United States), Vice President, Brunswick Bowling

Products, CO-CHAIR

- Dr. Mohammed Alathel (Saudi Arabia), Vice President, Saudi

Bowling Federation

- Dom Barrett (England), athlete

- Andrew Frawley (Australia), national team coach

- Jim Goodwin (United States), media

- Onder Gurkan (Turkey), European Tenpin Bowling Federation

Presidium member

- Kirk Von Krueger (United Sates), Deputy Commissioner,

Professional Bowlers Association

- Kelly Kulick (United States), athlete

- Veronica Rajii (Chile), Vice President, Chile Olympic Committee

- Bandar Al Shafi (Qatar), Secretary General, Qatar Bowling

Federation

- Walter Ray Williams Jr. (United States), athlete

Dornberger said the goal for this group is to come up with an initial

recommendation by Dec. 1, 2014, to be presented to the World Bowling

Executive Board. The next WTBA Congress will be held in November

2015, which presents the first opportunity for legislative change.

World Bowling invites suggestions from the public regarding this proj-

ect. Any questions regarding the overall project mission can be directed

to Dornberger by email at [email protected]. Any detailed

suggestions or opinions about scoring can be sent directly to committee

co-chair Hamberg at [email protected].

SEATTLE – Entries will open on Friday, Aug. 15, for the

Professional Bowlers Association’s World Series of

Bowling VI which returns to South Point Bowling Center in

Las Vegas Oct. 24-Nov. 2 with a proven formula, a capaci-

ty field of the world’s most talented bowlers and a few new

wrinkles.

The World Series, which made its debut in suburban

Detroit in 2009, has evolved into an international showcase

for bowlers from around the world, and the sixth edition of

the multi-event championships will carry on the tradition of

drama and excitement with the addition of a new PBAChallenge television show and a first-look at the new South

Point Bowling Stadium which will host World Series TV

finals.

WSOB VI will include more than 50 hours of live cover-

age on PBA’s online bowling channel, Xtra Frame, as well

as 10 hours of national television coverage on ESPN.

WSOB VI will include its traditional PBA “animal pat-

tern” championships – the Cheetah, Viper, Chameleon and

Scorpion Championships – along with the final major of the

2014 season, the PBA World Championship. Cumulative

qualifying scores for 28 games in the four animal pattern

events will determine the 24 players who will advance to

the PBA World Championship match play finals.

As always, the World Series also will play a key role in

deciding the 2014 PBA Player of the Year and Rookie of the

Year races.

The PBA anticipates another sold-out field of 240 of theworld’s most talented players representing an estimated 20

countries (the 2013 field drew representatives from a record

23 countries). Among the star-studded field of bowlers will

be defending champions Wes Malott (Cheetah), Chris

Barnes (Viper), Ryan Ciminelli (Chameleon), Tom

Smallwood (Scorpion) and Dom Barrett (PBA World

Championship).

A $900 entry fee will include all five PBA Tour events.

Based on a full field, first prize in each of the four animal

pattern events will be $20,000 with 32 places cashing. The

PBA World Championship will offer a $50,000 first prize

with 60 cashing positions. With a total prize fund of more

than $650,000, the World Series will be the richest event in

professional bowling.

New to the World Series program will be the PBA50 Tour

Finals, PBA Regional Finals and PBA Women’s Regional

Finals – each of which will include eight competitors whowill earn berths based on competition points races earlier in

the season. The eight PBA50 Tour players will qualify

based on 2014 competition points. The eight PBA Regional

Finals and eight PBA Women’s Regional Finals players will

include top points qualifiers from the PBA’s East, South,

Central, Midwest, Southwest, West and Northwest Regions

along with players from the new PBA Japan Region.

In each case, the eight players will bowl an eight-game

round-robin match play event on Friday, Oct. 24, with the

top two players advancing to a new PBA Challenge TV

show where they’ll join 2014 Teen Masters boys and girls

champions Michael Coffey of Melbourne, Fla., and Kelly

Skalacki of Coram, N.Y., in a four-match special event for

ESPN.

The PBA International Tour/World Bowling Tour Men’s

and Women’s Finals also will be part of the World Series

lineup. Additional details regarding World Series television

events will be announced soon.

All of the preliminary rounds of the World Series will be

covered live on PBA’s online bowling channel, Xtra Frame.
