Congratulations to Tom Martino,
Sr., owner of Majestic Lanes in
Hopelawn who will receive the
BPAA President’s Medal at Bowl
Expo in June.
Also to the BPA of North Jersey
who received the BPAA Best
Bowling Promotion award in the
“Best of” category for 2009. The
promotion concerned open play
traffic building with coupon books
and holiday party business build-
ing using post cards.
The PBA Eastern Regional
Tournament is returning to
Rockaway Lanes on April 24 and
25. The center is hosting three
win-a-spots on Sundays in March:
7th, 21st and 28th. Check-in will
be at 6 p.m. for each session and
tournament bowling will start at
6:30 p.m. Five games will be
bowled across 10 lanes in this
scratch tournament. This is open
to any sanctioned USBC bowler.
The lanes will have a PBA shot set
up. There will be one winner from
each squad plus a wild card. Cost
is $80 per entry. For more infor-
mation contact Rockaway Lanes
at 973-627-5800.
No sooner did the father-son
Albensis score perfect games than
Val Johannessen and her husband,
Gregg rolled 800 series each, and
nearly rolled perfect games as
well. Val, a fierce competitor
stressed that her 824 was higher
than Gregg’s 814.
Gregg started with a 248 to Val’s
266. Then he rolled 299. One of
the league members who had
rolled 298 in the league previously
chided, “Oh you had to beat me.
Somebody needs to shoot a 300
now to beat me.” Val was up for
the challenge, especially when
team mate Ryan Prevost said he
would do it (300 game). She pro-
ceeded to roll her fifth career 300
and second 800. But Gregg is no
slouch either. He has had nine
300s and six 800s. Two weeks
prior he rolled 805 in another
league and 300 the next week.
Val’s claim to fame is that her
300s were in five different centers.
This time she used a Hammer Hot
Sauce and Gregg used a Hammer
Bite, both drilled by Pro Image
Pro Shop’s Ken Yokobosky.
Val and Prevost won the Bergen
County Doubles Scratch division
earlier this year while Gregg and
Ken Vanderhoof placed second.
Keith Meyers, Paterson, saw his
first 300, in the Wednesday Night
Mixed League. He rolled 226-
300-221 for a 747 on a 211 aver-
age. This 28-year-old right-hander
wasn’t nervous, as he had been
there before, rolling a 299. He
chose to get the USBC ring. His
next goal is an 800 series, as his
high to date is 767.

MASTERS
Continued from page 1
In the title match against Barnes,
Williams got off to a shaky start,
going high on his first shot, break-
ing up a split and leaving a 7 pin.
From there, he was perfect, finish-
ing with 11 consecutive strikes to
take home the $50,000 prize and
two-year PBA Tour exemption.
Williams said the turning point
in the match was when Barnes left
a 10 pin in the fourth frame, but he
managed to carry a similar shot in
the fifth frame.
"Chris left that weak 10 pin after
a scout came over and touched it
but didn't knock it over, and then I
step up and leave a 10 pin but the
scout comes over and gets it,"
Williams said. "That helped me
get a little more comfortable, and
from that point, every one of my
strikes was high flush."
Looking back on the loss,
Barnes said he thought he threw
the ball well, but it was the way
the lanes broke down in practice
that had a major impact.
"I lost this one in the practice
session," said Barnes, who fin-
ished second in the season's sec-
ond major, losing to Kelly Kulick,
265-195, in the PBA Tournament
of Champions. "He played further
right than I anticipated. When I
broke them down, it made the
lanes pretty good for me, but it had
no affect on him."
When Williams and Barnes met
for the Masters title in 2004, the
scenario set up the same way.
Barnes was the top seed, while
Williams was No. 2.
"The last two Masters here in
Reno, I've gone undefeated in
match play, I haven't lost a three-
The American Bowling
Congress Hall of Fame was
founded in 1941, becoming the
third oldest sports shrine, fol-
lowing baseball in 1936 and golf
in 1940.
Halls of Fame in all sports cre-
ate plenty of interest and con-
troversy based on who gets in
and who doesn't, and almost
every sport boasts a hall.
It's a good bet that bowling
has more Halls of Fame than
any other sport. No exact count
exists but there probably are
800 or more bowling Halls at
different levels around the
world. Don't be too amazed by
so many. At its peak bowling
had 3,009 men and 2,910
women’s local bowling associa-
tions. Once the ABC Hall was
established many of these
groups liked the concept and
started local, state and regional
Halls.
Hall of Fame committees
number from three people to
dozens and induction cere-
monies range from lavish din-
ners to brief presentations dur-
ing meetings or prior to tourna-
ments.
Those honored are remem-
bered proudly with plaques or
displays in bowling centers or at
local association offices such as
the large photos for all to see at
Bergen County Bowling
Association headquarters in
River Edge.
After years of planning,
searching for the proper site
year while others go years with-
out adding any. The same is true
in bowling because there are no
set rules and they vary greatly
in how they choose new mem-
bers.
There was one association
years ago that staged an annual
picnic. To boost ticket sales they
gave each ticket buyer a vote in
the annual Hall of fame election.
That kind of gimmick is long
gone and most Halls have solid
procedures. The USBC has one
of the best.
The USBC Hall of Fame
Board has 18 members, six Hall
of Famers, six members of the
media, the Bowling writers
Association of America, and six
USBC officials
Terms are staggered, guaran-
teeing new members and some
new thinking each year.
The board elects the new Hall
of Famers in the meritorious
and veteran categories. It also
comes up with the candidates
for the performance classifica-
tion. Those candidates are then
voted on by a panel of more
than 100 experts from every
area of bowling.
The system works well and
many local groups have copied
this type of committee.
Bowling competitors start
very young and retire real old.
Therefore there are many young
bowlers in the PBA Hall of
Fame. Many in their 30s have 20
years of competition, and few
ever really retire.

February 24 - March 2, 2010
New for the USBC
Open Championships
RENO, Nev. - The United States Bowling Congress Open
Championships has evolved and grown since its inception in 1901, and
bowlers will notice a few changes when they arrive at the National
Bowling Stadium for the 2010 event, which kicks off Saturday after-
noon.
Competitors still will enjoy the many traditions that make the
tournament so memorable, but they also will be among the first to
enjoy the beginning of some new ones.
The changes include new Scale Room procedures, the allowance of
beverages while competing, special check-in accommodations for team
captains with four or more teams, opportunities for team captains
registered for both 2010 and 2011 and a fully-automated registration
process.
Bowlers have traditionally had all of their bowling balls weighed and
checked prior to both team and doubles and singles, but the procedure
has been adapted. All balls still must be checked prior to bowling
team, but only balls not present during team must be checked before
doubles and singles competition. All bowlers are still required to report
to the squad room with their equipment, however.
Once on the lanes, bowlers will be allowed to consume beverages
while competing. In the past, water was provided and all other drinks
were prohibited, but an increasing demand has prompted the change on
a trial basis.
Behind the scenes, team captains with four or more teams will be able
to enjoy a stress-free check-in experience in the tournament's new VIP
check-in area, which is set away from the general check-in counter.
In addition, captains are encouraged to register for 2011 so they
can begin reaping the benefits of the Eagle's Nest, a special club for
dedicated captains.
Eagle's Nest members will receive a monthly 'E-Nest' Newsletter - a
monthly e-newsletter featuring tournament tips, latest bowling trends
and special offers from Reno sponsors, USBC Travel and the Reno
Sparks Convention and Visitors Authority.
All Eagle's Nest members also will be eligible to win one of five cars
or trucks that will be awarded at the 2011 Open Championships, airfare
and lodging for the 2011 event or one of the high-performance Storm
bowling balls awarded each day during the 2011 tournament.
Captains with four or more teams also will be eligible for free
upgrades on lodging in 2011.
Any current or potential team captains interested in registering for
2011 now can do so using USBC's fully-automated registration system
on USBCopen.com. This option was introduced earlier this month, and
the step-by-step process has proven to be simple and quick.
Other significant changes in Open Championships history:
-1951 (St. Paul, Minn.): The first crowning of Joe Bowler, who is
randomly selected to throw out the first ball of the tournament each
year.
-1954 (Seattle): The debut of the tournament's Center Aisle.
-1957 (Fort Worth, Texas): The introduction of the automatic pinsetter
to the Open Championships.
-1979 (Tampa, Fla.): The introduction of automatic scoring and the
original "flip dot" scoreboards.
-1998 (Reno): Brackets are offered at the Open Championships for
the first time.
-2009 (Las Vegas): The unveiling of the world's largest mobile
scoreboard, which utilizes the latest 10mm technology and enhanced
graphics with 4.4 trillion colors and streaming video capabilities.

Fans Decide Who Will Bowl the Pros

ARLINGTON, Texas – Most people who play sports can only dream of having a
chance to compete against the pros on national television with thousands of dollars at
stake.

For 18 bowlers, their chance to compete against some of the best professionals on
the Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour, including star Norm Duke, is closer to becoming
a reality through the PBA Experience Showdown.
The PBA Experience Showdown is a unique competition for United States Bowling
Congress Sport Bowling members. Sport bowlers compete in leagues which use
many of the same lane conditions that are used on the PBA Tour. For the last six
months, the top bowler (highest scratch series) each week in those leagues was eligi-
ble to be entered in the PBA Experience Showdown.
More than 1,300 entries were sent to USBC from Sport Bowling leagues. From
those qualifiers, 18 competitors were randomly selected as finalists. The entries were
divided into six groups based on what lane conditions they bowled on when they
qualified, and three finalists were randomly selected from each category.
Now through March 1, bowling fans can visit BOWL.com and vote for their
favorite bowler from each of the six lane patterns – Chameleon, Cheetah, Scorpion,

Youth Travel League Keglers
Ablaze at Montvale Lanes
By Vince Albrecht
Montvale, NJ - The first eleven weeks’ action in the Stan Niemiec Youth
Travel League resulted in just two “700” sets and one “270” game.
Well, you can forget about that now as the youthful keglers lit up at
Montvale Lanes, abusing the helpless maples with three “700s”, five
“600s” and twenty-two deuces.
When the dust settled, Holiday Bowl I’s Rob Andresen came away
with the season high game/set of 280-728 while Montvale II’s Brian
O’Flaherty 279-714 and Bryan Kist 275-707 blistered the pins in their
customary friendly duel with the former edging high average leader
Kist in all three games this go-around. With the B&B pin-busters in
high gear and Megan McNally adding 203-578, one might have expect-
ed the Montvale II squad to have easily won three from rival entry
Montvale I, but Brian Galbraith squelched that by closing his 641 set
with five strikes for 234, snaring the finale by a scant ten pins. Even so,
the match victors now boast high four-player scratch game of 877 and
handicap single of 1049.
Bowler City’s Will Blanco, who earlier in the season had fared poorly
here, put that behind him with three solid deuces, finishing with 241-
666. Alas, his team dropped two of three to Fair Lawn I which grabbed
the league lead behind young Isiah Tolbert’s 239-601 and above average
performances from supporting cast Marla Auslander, Deandre and
Keenah Lightly. Holiday Bowl II received stellar outings from Rich
Gutches 224-634, Ryan Landau 237-630, Kyle Landau 212 along with
above average games of 163,171 from Jeremy Scott in sweeping past
Fair Lawn II. Best for the latter were Chris Marco-Hunt 237,191 and
Jaylin Floyd 204,194.
Chris McBride is NA Bantam BOW
By Vince Albrecht
01/15/10 NORTH ARLINGTON, NJ - In Friday’s North Arlington
Adult/Junior Doubles, Chris McBride rolled 443, his best threesome of
the year, to earn recognition as this week’s top Bantam Bowler. With his
closing 164 and his mom Donna adding a 200, Chris’ Juicy duo ground-
ed the Cardinals, 5-2. Will Blanco scored a pair of 216 games for the
shocked Redbirds.
S.A.S. came away with a hard-earned 4-3 win over Team Awesome as
Nick Gavron scored 195-563. Streaking Café Tra-Ell won seven points
behind nine-year-old Nicole Fonseca’s three games over average while
the Mighty Chipmunks scratched their way to two of three successes
against the A Team.
Bantams surpassing their averages were Chris McBride +41, Nicole
Fonseca +22, Sam Passaro +14 and Margaret Ziobro +10. The latter’s
partner Tim Bray, who earlier this year had 277, bested that with 280
this go-around. Other adult deuces came from Kevin Gavron 229,214,
Vin Albrecht 202 and Donna McBride 200.
