Scratch champi- on Eric Taylor Jr. of Brooklyn, NY won $3,000 and the handicap champion, Mike Ruggiero of Smithtown, NY, took home $2,000. Close to 400 bowlers packed the bowling center and after 6 qualify- ing squads, and a four round finals, two new LIGBT Champions were crowned. The scratch event attracted 150 bowlers and it was obvious from the start the lefties were at a tremen- dous advantage. The PBA Viper pattern was used and low scoring was expected but the dominance by the port side was frustrating. Twelve out of the 18 finalists were left-handed. The final shootout was dominated by young Eric Taylor who started his final game with the first 6 strikes. The other two finalists were trying their best to find a shot but before they could figure it out Eric had a 45 pin victory. To win his first LIGBT title Eric rolled a 243 while Senior Champion Tim Regan of E. Northport finished second with a 198 ($1,500) and Adam Sher of Commack took third ($1,000) with a 166. The 210 and under handicap event had another great turnout as 236 bowlers packed AMF Garden City. A total of 29 bowlers advanced to the finals with 6 bowlers earning byes by leading a squad. High series for the handicap event was thrown by Tom Piazza of Roslyn, NY rolling a 750 series with handicap and bonus pins. Tom earned 2 byes in the finals for his high series. The final match was very close as Mike Ruggiero and Michael Bernard, Copaigue, NY, bowled head to head to determine the LIGBT Handicap Champion. Mike Ruggiero started with a 17 pin handicap advantage and never let his lead slip away. In fact, the 17 pin advantage wound up being a 16 pin victory; 204 to 188.

I feel like things are back on track. “I also worked at Harvest Park Bowl for a long time,” he continued. “I’ve always had a great feel for this place…..It all feels like a dream.” Sylvia was nearly perfect in defeating Kerry Painter of inated Ross Packard of San Jose, Calif., 235-201.

Last Friday’s Morris County

USBC Youth Association’s 22nd

Annual Awards Dinner was great as

usual. Seeing the young bowlers,

their families, youth association

officers, and the legend, Emma

Hendrickson in one place (Zeris Inn,

Mountain Lakes) is always gratify-

ing. And what is more inspiring than

hearing of the young people’s

accomplishments? Of particular

note was this year’s Emma P.

Hendrickson scholarship winner,

Nicole Chanin. This Sparta High

School student has a grade point

average of 3.87.She aspires to attend

Vanderbilt University and bowl with

their team. She is not only a scholar

but also enjoys the Junior State of

America, Russian Elementary

School Tutor and Peer Development

Program, Habitat for Humanity and

Key Club. By the way, she bowls,

too, with an average of 194, high

game of 278 and high series of 791.

One of her many highlights was

bowling in Holland in the People to

People US Ambassador Youth

Friendship Games, winning first

place team and first place girls’ indi-

vidual high game with 268. Nicole

was presented with a $1,000 schol-

arship.

There were too many awards to

list here, but the year-end achieve-

ments are a good representation.

Some youngsters even won the

“triple crown” which is high aver-

age, series, and game. Here they are:

Bantam Boys: Evan Weinberg, 173

average, 528 series, 254 game

(triple crown); Bantam Girls: High

Average and Series: Corinne

Clemente, 109 avg., 457 series.

High Game, Emma Thies, 162. Prep

Boys: Allen Warner, 170 average,

552 series, 253 game (triple crown);

Prep Girls: Kimberly Keller, 148

average, 540 series. Jenna

Henderson, 214 high game. Junior

Boys: Ross Whitehead, 201 aver-

age, 729 series. High game: Greg

Tack, 278. Junior Girls: Giana

Loyer, 197 average, Laura Zaugg,

727 series and Giana Loyer, 277

high game. Major Boys: High

Average, Steven Haneveld, 226.

High Series: Michael Angle, 822

with honors going to Jason

Maulbeck and Steven Haneveld for

804 series. High Game: 300 for

Matt Coombs, Eric Gentilella,

Steven Haneveld, Jon Hawxhurst,

Jason Maulbeck and Scott Wilcox.

Major girls: High average: Crystal

Keller, 205. Series: Nicole Chanin,

700 and Heather VanDyk, high

game of 280. Don’t forget these are

youth bowlers!

Did you know? There are coupons

on boxes of Jolly Time® microwave

popcorn and Tony’s Frozen Pizza,

good for one free game of open

bowling, valid until August

31.According to gobowling.com,

area centers participating are:

Boonton Lanes, Rockaway Lanes,

Sparta Lanes and Oakwood Lanes.

How’s that for a nice free game of

practice?

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Paul DiSturco, Randolph, saw his

first 300 at the age of 49. He did this

in his only league at Rockaway

Lanes, the Tuesday Night Mixed

League, where he averaged 207.

This 39-year veteran of the game

got his start in junior leagues in

Union when the Four Seasons

Bowling Center existed. The story

behind his ball is a little unusual. His

teammate, John Pezzino, gave him

the ball which Paul then had Pro

Image Pro Shop redrill for him.

About five weeks into it, he scored

the perfecto in between a 203 and

223.

He has chosen to get the ring from

the US Bowling Congress. And yes,

he admits to having been nervous. “I

tried not to trip over my feet. As

long as I didn’t trip, I was okay.”

When asked if the whole building

got quiet on his last shot he said, “I

don’t know.” Talk about being in

the zone! Paul’s Team, Hafta Bowl,

won the team event in last year’s

Morris County USBC BA

Championship tournament with

Paul and his teammates Gene

Pukas, Bill Ratliff, John Pezzino

and Chuckie Briggs. DiSturco

would like to someday see an 800

series. For now he’s happy to bowl

in his one league and enter county

and state tournaments.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Joe Miller, 47, saw his sixth per-

fect game, this at Rockaway Lanes

in the Monday Night Early Birds

league. He posted 244-300-236 on a

222 average for a 780 total. You

would think he wouldn’t be nervous

on the final ball, but he admits to “a

little nervousness. My wife, Donna,

had never been present for my other

300s, so this was special. And she

was nervous!”

Joe has been bowling for 26 years.

In earlier times, Pro bowler Teata

Semiz helped Joe conquer the 7-pin,

as Joe is left-handed, at Columbia

Park Lanes in Union City. His only

bowling goal is “to continue to be

consistent.”

Idle bowling thoughts.

...I happen to live near a moun-

tain, a little one, but one that does

have plenty of wildlife. So it's no

surprise when you see an animal

here or there. But one morning I

was up early and there on my

lawn, a little lawn, pranced 9 large

wild turkeys. In less than 20 min-

utes the gathering had increased

to 19. My bowling side of my

brain quickly calculated that if I

was bowling those 19 gobblers

would have translated into 57

strikes.

...The best motto ever used in

bowling was the simple one of

bring a friend. If every bowler,

even now and then, brought along

a friend to bowl, and maybe join

or rejoin a league, it wouldn't be

long before the bowlers would

need more centers.

...Behind every star bowler is an

instructor who claims there's a

good instructor behind every star

bowler. Yet nothing is more exas-

perating than a bowler who can

instruct well, and won't, unless it

is a bowler who can't teach, and

does.

...Award programs are impor-

tant, and after a century of pro-

moting various award programs

by various groups for a wide vari-

ety of bowlers, care must be taken

when awards are eliminated. On

the outside most bowlers try not

to show emotion when they

receive awards, but inside they're

bursting with pride. Have you

ever visited any bowler's home or

business and not seen a trophy,

plaque or emblem on display?

...Back in 1970 Elvin Mesger

was the leader in sanctioned 300

games with 22. He was followed

by George Billick with 17, Dick

Weber at 16 and Lindy Faragalli

with 14. The only difference now

is that those numbers were for a

career and similar numbers cur-

rently posted are for a year.

...The determinization of a pro

or amateur remains confusing.

The only sure thing is that if you

are a member of the Professional

Bowlers Association, you are

indeed classified as a pro.

…A very palatial estate in New

Jersey has been on sale for a mere

$19.5 million. The impressive digs

have practically everything, and if

you're a bowler with bucks, the

deciding factor could be the two

lane bowling center on the proper-

ty. ...Glad to see the emphasis in

bowling is back on the sport side

of the game. Over the years,

dozens of top bowling writers

have endorsed such thinking.

...Why do we call it the "foul"

line? Why not call it the "fair"

line.

...It's good to see Doug Kent

receive recognition. He has been a

very underrated bowler for most

of his long career, except to his

opponents.

...If you tire of hearing so many

problems in the doings of athletes

who command mega-buck

salaries, take pride in the off lane

activities of top pro bowlers, most-

ly more giving than taking.

...The psychiatrist happily

informed his bowler patient that

he was now cured. "That's some

cure," said the bowler. "When I

first came here I was Walter Ray

Williams Jr. Now I'm just another

nobody bowler."

Bryan Kist Tops in Youth Travel By Vince Albrecht

Fair Lawn, NJ– There have been nine “700” sets rolled in the Stan

Niemiec Youth Travel League this past season and Bryan Kist has five

of them, including the 268-716 at Fair Lawn where he now has three.

Even with teammates Brian O’Flaherty’s 250-628, Bobby McCarthy’s

221 and noticeably improved Shannon Rossi’s effort, Bryan’s Montvale

II squad barely salvaged two points, taking the finale from Fair Lawn I,

924-915. The victors benefitted from 14-year-old Deandre Lightly’s sea-

son-best 223,218,244-685; his younger sister Keenah came through with

a huge 191 while deuces were tallied by Jenn Houseward 205 and Simon

Lezaja 201.

Driven by 14-year-old Jake Rollins’ 237, Fair Lawn II grabbed undis-

puted possession of first place, sweeping seven points from the vacancy;

Maggie Schultz and Shaun Cairns both contributed over average three-

somes for the pacesetters. Montvale I took two of three from shorthand-

ed Bowler City behind Brian Galbraith’s 238-580 and Ryan Cauwels

199-545; Ryan Perez was tops for Bowler City with 190,192.

In a matchup of powerhouses, second place Holiday Bowl II came

roaring back from an opening game setback with scratch games of

853,875 to outslug sister entry Holiday Bowl I, 2815-2768. Impressive

numbers were put up by both sides: HB II’s Kyle Landau 255-669, Tim

Scott 227-658, Amy Silvestro 220-576 and Ryan Landau, a closing 249;

HB I’s Kyle Kattine 268-671, Alex Hubelbank 225-576, Kevin Macchia

232 and Ryan Kattine 198.

North Arlington, NJ – In a befit-

tingly climactic outcome, the

Cardinals held off sizzling S.A.S.,

452-444 to snare the North

Arlington Adult-Junior Doubles

title in a playoff after dropping

back to back position encounters

to the torrid S.A.S. duo. The latter

forced the rolloff with a runaway

season high 504 effort in the regu-

lation finale as Kevin Gavron

smoked a 278 to complement his

nephew Nick’s 226. Undaunted,

the Redbirds’ youth average leader

Will Blanco was unflappable in

the playoff, hammering 233 by

converting a crucial tenth frame

spare for the championship.

Team Awesome finished in third

place despite a 5-2 setback to

Juicy and 12-year-old Chris

McBride’s over average outing.

The Mighty Chipmunks escaped

the cellar, taking all seven points

from the Ghosts while the A Team

rode 12-year-old Nikki Arrigo’s

177,174 to a three-game sweep of

Café Tra-Ell.

Season-ending accolades to

youth achievers’ Will Blanco [200

average, 709 series, 259 game],

Nick Gavron [197 average, 691

series, 268 game], Nicolette

Arrigo [161 average, 591 series,

222 game] and Chris McBride

[524 series, 233 game].
