By Bill Vint - PBA

RENO, Nev. – Sweden’s Jesper

Svensson, a 20-year-old two-handed player, won his second

Professional Bowlers Association

Tour title, and first on American

soil, when he defeated Germany’s

Pascal Winternheimer, 267-193,

to win the PBA Chameleon

Championship presented by

HotelPlanner.com at the National

Bowling Stadium.

The Chameleon Championship

aired on ESPN. It was the third of

four “animal pattern” champi-

onships contested during the

GEICO PBA World Series of

Bowling VII presented by Silver

Legacy. It also was the first PBA

Tour event held in the United States

to feature an all-international field of finalists.

“It feels great. I didn’t expect it,” Svensson said. “I

know how hard it is to win over here. This means every-

thing to me; it’s really what I want to do.”

Svensson, a slender 6-foot-3 158-pound rookie,

defeated England’s Stuart Williams, 245-188, in their

semifinal round match while Winternheimer, bowling in

his first PBA World Series, eliminated Denmark’s

Thomas Larsen, 235-216, in the other semifinal match.

After an admitted nervous lapse in failing to convert a

3-5-6-10 spare attempt in his opening frame against

Williams, Svensson went on a

strike binge, throwing seven strikes

in an eight-frame run to race awayfrom Williams and then throwing

nine strikes in his first 11 attempts

against Winternheimer.

With his win, Svensson became

the only PBA Tour rookie to win

two titles in 2015. Earlier in the

year, he captured the 13th Kingdom

of Bahrain Open in Sitra, Bahrain,

a PBA International Tour event.

“The biggest difference between

winning here and in Europe is there

are so many good bowlers here,”

Svensson said. “To be able to win

here is the biggest thing that has

ever happened to me. I was a bit

nervous at the start, but I was able

to clear my mind and throw a cou-

ple of good shots.”

Like the majority of emerging two-handed players,

Svensson began bowling with both hands as a toddler,

but he is young enough that he was able to learn from

other two-handed players who were beginning to estab-

lish themselves in the global bowling arena.

“I grew up watching the two-handers – (Finland’s)

Osku (Palermaa) and Belmo (Australia’s Jason

Belmonte) – as soon as I was old enough to use a com-

puter,” he said. “I watched them on YouTube, maybe

when I was around 10.”

ARLINGTON, Texas – Kim

Adler of Melbourne, Florida, and

Mike Durbin of Hollywood,

California, have been elected tothe United States Bowling

Congress Hall of Fame in the

Superior Performance category.

The two were among eight

bowlers (six men and two

women) on the national ballot

Fame class by a USBC panel of

veteran bowling writers, hall of

famers and board members.

The 2016 USBC Hall of Fame

part of the USBC Convention.

Adler and Durbin, along with

three inductees elected in November by the USBC Hall of

Fame Committee, will comprise

the 2016 USBC Hall of Fame

class.

Adler, 48, is a 16-time

Professional Women’s Bowling

came between 1993 and 2003,

and her last three titles were at

the St. Clair Classic in Fairview

Heights, Illinois, in 2000, 2002

and 2003.

She was the runner-up for

PWBA Player of the Year in 1993

and earned her lone major victo-

ry at the U.S. Women’s Open in

1999. She also owns four PWBA

regional titles.

Adler’s success extended to the

biggest stage in women’s bowl-

ing, the USBC Women’s

Championships, where she won

Classic All-Events in 2004. She

has 11 additional top-10 finishesat the Women’s Championships,

including a second-place finish

in Classic Singles in 2004 and a

runner-up effort at the 2002

USBC Queens.

Durbin, who now lives in

Texas, was a dominant player on

the PBA Tour in the 1960s, 70s

and 80s, collecting 14 titles,

including PBA Tournament of

Champions wins in 1972, 1982

and 1984 to become the event’s

first three-time winner.

He won two events on the way

to PBA Rookie of the Year hon-

ors in 1967 and was elected tothe PBA Hall of Fame in 1984.

He also owns six PBA regional

titles.

The 74-year-old right-hander

earned the No. 22 spot among the

50 Greatest Players in PBA

History, announced in 2009.

Durbin also won a Classic

Team title at the USBC Open

Championships (1969) and had a

fourth-place finish at the USBC

RENO, Nev. – The two-time

defending Professional Bowlers

Association League champion

Silver Lake Atom Splitters will

make their bid for an Elias Cup

“three-peat” in 2016 with a roster

led by Chris Barnes, Dick Allen

and Tom Daugherty, and complet-

ed when manager Mark Baker

added PBA Rookie of the Year

contender Matt McNiel and youngSwedish two-handed star Jesper

Svensson to complete his lineup.

PBA League rosters were filled

during the GEICO PBA World

Series of Bowling VII presented

by Silver Legacy when each of the

eight team managers draft two

players in a serpentine draft in the

reverse order of how they finished

in 2015. Earlier in the fall, each

manager had protected three play-

ers from their 2015 rosters.

The first highlight of the draft was

the selection of two women who

have had success in PBA competi-

tion in addition to the newly-

revived Professional Women’s

Bowling Association. PWBA

Player of the Year Liz Johnson of

Cheektowaga, N.Y., the winner of

the 2015 USBC Queens and

Bowlmor AMF U.S. Women’s

Open, and the only woman ever toadvance to two PBA television

finals, was selected in the final

round of the draft by Portland

Lumberjacks manager Tim Mack.

With the next-to-last pick in the

draft, Barbasol Motown Muscle

manager Del Ballard Jr. added

PWBA Tour Championship and

recent PBA Regional titlist

Danielle McEwan of Stony Point,

N.Y., to his roster.

But before the final pick of the

draft, Dallas Strikers’ player-man-

ager Norm Duke pulled off a trade

with Portland, sending red-hot

left-hander Ryan Ciminelli of

Cheektowaga, N.Y., and Johnson

to Portland in exchange for Texas

two-hander Shawn Maldonado

and North Carolina’s BJ Moore

III.

The first player off the draft board,

which consisted of more than 60PBA members who had expressed

their desire to be part of the 2016

draft, was 2014 PBA Rookie of the

Year Marshall Kent of Yakima,

Wash., by GEICO New York City

WTT KingPins manager Carolyn

Dorin-Ballard. Motown then

selected 18-year-old two-handed

player Anthony Simonsen of

Princeton, Texas. Third was the

Dallas Strikers who picked

Ciminelli. Picking fourth,

Philadelphia Hitmen manager

Jason Couch selected veteran Tom

Smallwood of Saginaw, Mich. The

newly-named Portland

Lumberjacks selected Maldonado.

Brooklyn Styles manager Johnny

Petraglia, represented at the draft

by PBA Hall of Famer Parker

Bohn III, picked veteran Jason

Sterner of Covington, Ga. Last

year’s runner-up, L.A. X under manager Andrew Cain, added vet-

eran left-hander Patrick Allen of

Mount Kisco, N.Y. Silver Lake

completed the round by picking

rookie Matt McNiel of Prior Lake,

Minn.

The final round of picks prior to

the last-minute trade included

Swedish two-hander Jesper

Svensson (Silver Lake),

Colombia’s Andres Gomez (L.A.

X), Rhode Island’s Jon VanHees

(Brooklyn), North Carolina’s B.J.

Moore (Portland), Ohio’s David

Wodka (Philadelphia), Liz

Johnson (Dallas), McEwan

(Motown) and the KingPins, with

the final pick, selected New York

native John Szczerbinski.

Johnson and McEwan became the

second and third women selected

for PBA League competition.

Kelly Kulick of Union, N.J., was picked for the inaugural 2013

PBAL season by Los Angeles and

subsequently traded to New York

City.

The PBA League will return to

Portland, Maine, for two days of

competition on April 2 and 3 for

delayed telecast over a span of

four consecutive Sundays, April

17-May 8, on ESPN. All four PBA

League shows will air at 1 p.m.

ET.

Lawn’s oil pattern, 14-year-old Tom Chamberlain fashioned a session

the victors was Ramsey junior Devin Crowley who finished strong with

192-216. Led by Andrew Donnelly’s 183, Boonton managed to take the

opener and held onto the wood point by a scant nine sticks thanks to

Peter Ho’s stellar third game 225.

Kyle Schellberg’s 264 finish to overtake Holiday I and come away with

three points. Kyle’s huge game was the only deuce on the pair, teammateJonMikal Sepero scratched out a 187 for the victors. Highs for Holiday

I were Jon Mormando and Lilly Sigona, each with a 190 while anchor

O OWL

ELMWOOD PARK, NJ - Of the

one hundred thirteen boys and

sixty-seven girls entered in the

16th Annual North Jersey

Singles qualifying round, forty

boys and twenty-four g irls man-

aged to make the respective 559

and 487 three-game cutoff

scores, advancing them to the

pres sure -fi lle d single -game

playoffs.

Receiving a bye into the boys

quarterfinals were Passaic Tech

senior IsiahTolbert with an

astounding 773, Montville jun-

ior Erik Kattermann 738,

Passaic Tech senior Anthony

Rizzo 708 and Ridgefield Park

sophomore Derek Lewandowski

697 who had a higher best game

than Indian Hills junior Jared

Duncan who also scored 697.

Girls who earned byes were

Hopatcong sophomore Rhianna

Smith 687, St Mary’s Alize

Stevenson 657 and Northern

Highlands senior Allie

Woodhouse 609. As the top

qualifiers, Tolbert and Smith

earned a second bye into the

semi-finals.

In these heart-stopping single-

game playoffs, the advancement

cutoffs were remarkably high,

advancing to the boys quarter-

finals were scores of 224+, to

the semis, 223+, for the girls,

194 to the quarters and an amaz-

ing 226 to the semis.

All four girls’ semi-finalists

fired deuces, Paramus Catholic

junior Kristen Kane smoked the

lanes with 268, Rhianna Smith

212, Raritan’s Hayley Connolly

205 and Hawthorne junior

Madison Perry 201.

In the girls’ championship

match, southpaw Smith fash-

ioned a mid-game turkey to dis-

tance herself from Kane and

emerge the winner, 192-170.

The boys’ matchup featured

last year’s runner-up Tolbert

against reigning state individual

champion, Pompton Lakes jun-

ior Nick Cilento. The match was

magical, with each perfect

through seven frames, leaving

the spectators stunned at the

incredible talent to which they

were a witness. Cilento finished

with three spares and a strike fill

for 256, hoping for a chink in

southpaw Tolbert’s delivery….it

didn’t happen, although

Tolbert’s first ever perfect game

had tenth frame drama, appear-

ing to have left the six-pin on his

eleventh delivery, a fallen pin

rolled back, taking the six-pin

out just before the rack came

down. His nerve-wracked

twelfth shot crossed, temporari-

ly showing the 5-7 before both

pins coll apsed to the roaring

delight of everyone.

Congratulations to this year’s

North Jersey Singles winners ,

both lefthanders, and to all the

part icipants for displaying

extraordinary skill levels.
