Articles and Press Releases

UMES repeats as NCAA women's bowling champs
Baltimore Sun
“UMES became the first school to win back-to-back NCAA women's bowling championships since Nebraska in 2004-2005 with a 4-2 defeat of Fairleigh Dickinson University in the championship finals Saturday night at Freeway Lanes outside Cleveland."

Satellite Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame opens in Reno
Johnathan L. Wright
Reno Gazette Journal

"Tourism officials and downtown business leaders at the opening seconded Hamilton, saying the museum signaled to bowlers their continuing importance to Reno tourism and entertainment. “It’s a thank you to them from us and downtown,” said Rick Murdock, vice president of sales and marketing for the Eldorado Hotel Casino. “Bowlers fill Reno’s rooms, our restaurants, our golf courses.”"

Bowling on the Campaign Trail: The Politics of Tenpins
Alexa Keyes
ABC News

"Republican candidate Rick Santorum has said that his bowling skills offer yet another example of a contrast between him and President Obama. So the former Pennsylvania senator displayed his talent for bowling this week in an effort to connect with Midwestern voters while campaigning in Wisconsin."

Bowling With World’s Best, Then Rejoining 8th Grade
Mary Pilon
New York Times

“In professional bowling, that corner of the sports landscape where gray-haired and balding athletes can thrive, Kamron Doyle presents something different. He is 14 and he is winning prize money against the best bowlers in the world."
Kamron Doyle, 14, at the U.S. Open, is the youngest to bowl for money on the P.B.A. national tour.

The Secret to Success in Bowling: Getting Hot
Michael Salfino
Wall Street Journal

“Pro bowlers have a higher strike percentage in the last two frames of a match when they've had a higher rate of knocking down all 10 pins in the prior eight frames.”

PBA bowlers face the danger of injuries thanks to grueling competitive schedule
Conor Orr
Star Ledger (NJ)
"Because of the way PBA veteran Amleto Monacelli used to grip the ball, with his pinkie finger tucked on top and his ring finger bearing all the stress, he missed six months when the tendons ripped completely and he could not pick up a bowling ball. "

Open Championships changes for 2013 include $30 entry fee hike, fresh oil for all squads, USBC announces
Jeff Richgels
Capital Times (WI)

"There already are big changes that could cut into entries starting in 2013 — another trip to Reno and the price hike — so adding a third big change that might drive some bowlers away probably is not wise. It also will make it more difficult to evaluate what may be driving any changes in entries."
Huntsville bowler Ron Ware coming off quite a week
Bill Bryant
Huntsville Times

"He realized quickly that he was on Wednesday night. He liked the reaction the new Ebonite ball took to the lane. The strikes were coming often and with ease. Moments after he rolled the last ball of the 10th frame, Ware's 67th career sanctioned 300 game was in the books."
Huntsville's Ron Ware set a state bowling record with an 879 series last week.
King Pin sets record
Lindsay Slater
Times-Journal (DeKalb Co.)

"He has carried the highest average for an entire season with 244.27. The season average was enough to set a state record. Bearden now holds the individual men's high average state record..."
