ITALY
Continued from Page 1
Jones and Barnes have been part of each performance since 2008
and were joined at the top of the medal stand last year in Las Vegas
by Butturff, who was making his World Championships debut.
This year, Anderson, Tackett and Troup all were first-time partici-
pants.
Two missed spares, a 2-8 combination and a 6-10, in the opening
game against Italy halted any momentum Team USA had after eas-
ing past Singapore in the night's first semifinal.
Despite the mistakes, though, Jones had a chance to shut out
Italy with a double and seven pins in the 10th frame, but a 4-6-7-
10 split on his first offering handed the game to the Italians.
Italy started the second game with a double, and five consecutive
spares to pull away.
The gold medalists solidified their spot among the top four after
six games of qualifying by closing with a 1,044 game, which put
them two pins ahead of fourth-seeded Singapore and 19 pins ahead
of Indonesia, the first team out of the cut.
Italy earned its meeting with Team USA by defeating Canada in
the second semifinal, 2-1 (176-162, 210-244, 190-179).
In the best-of-three format, teams alternate lanes each game,
with the higher seed determining the initial starting lanes. Canada
entered the medal round as the No. 2 seed, and Italy was No. 3. All
three games were won by the team on the right lane.
In the opening game, Canada opened twice and failed to strike in
the second half game, allowing Italy to rally with strikes in the
eighth, ninth and 10th frames to earn a come-from-behind victory.
The Canadians regained their momentum in Game 2 but managed
only two strikes in the finale. A missed 2-4-10 split by anchor Dan
MacLelland in the 10th frame meant Fiorentino needed just four
pins to advance.
In the first semifinal, Team USA struck 14 times and defeated
Singapore, 2-0 (238-194 and 216-189). Singapore threw only two
doubles in the match, and both came in the 10th frame.
Canada and Singapore each received bronze medals, marking the
first time either had medaled in the five-player event at the World
Championships. The silver medal was the seventh for the United
States at the World Championships.
All 265 competitors at the 2018 World Men's Championships
bowled 24 games this week (six games in singles, doubles, trios,
team), and medals also were awarded for all-events. There will be
gold, silver and two bronze medals up for grabs in the Masters
competition.
Singles and doubles both were won by Malaysia, Team USA's
Anderson, Tackett and Troup took the trios gold medal and Tackett
added the all-events gold to his haul.
Anderson and Tackett also earned the silver medal in doubles,
while Anderson and Troup were the singles bronze medalists.
Anderson claimed the all-events silver medal as well.

BVL RECEIVES LARGE DONATION FROM HEADPINZ &
BOWLAND CENTERS TO SUPPORT VETERAN PROGRAMS
IN SOUTHWEST FLORIDA
FAIRFAX, Va. – It’s the season of giving and that’s something that the
owners and bowlers of HeadPinz & Bowland Entertainment Centers
take seriously, especially when it comes to their support of the Bowlers
to Veterans Link (BVL).
Six HeadPinz and Bowland centers in southwest Florida teamed up
last month to raise $42,345 for BVL to help fund veteran programs,
marking the second largest donation from a bowling center group to
BVL this year. The funds were raised across multiple events at the
HeadPinz/Bowland bowling centers during November, which is
National BVL month. The total also included a personal donation from
HeadPinz & Bowland owners Pat and Lisa Ciniello, who are longtime
BVL supporters.
The HeadPinz/Bowland donation will be designated for programs at
the Veteran’s Administration clinic in Cape Coral, Fla., as well as other
Florida-based veterans’ services. As bowling’s own and oldest charity,
BVL is dedicated to supporting recreational and therapy services for
America’s veteran and active duty service men and women.
“There are no better people than Pat and Lisa Ciniello, who along with
their great staff understand that because of those veterans who paid the
price we are free to run our bowling businesses and our bowlers are free
to play the sport we all love,” said BVL Board Chair John LaSpina,
whose own Maple Family Centers group raised more than $57,000 for
BVL earlier this year. “Giving back and supporting our veterans is part
of their DNA, and their unwavering commitment to brightening veter-
ans’ lives sets an example for all bowling businesses to follow.”
“This just solidifies that our bowlers are huge supporters of our
nation’s military veterans,” said Pat Ciniello, CEO of Bowling
Management Associates, operators of the local centers. “We couldn’t be
prouder of the men and women who serve our country and likewise, we
can’t say thank you enough to the bowlers for their contributions to an
outstanding organization like BVL. We should never forget the sacrifice
our veterans made for us to make America great!”
“We’re so grateful to the owners and bowlers and HeadPinz and
Bowland for their ongoing tremendous support,” said BVL Executive
Director Mary Harrar. “These dollars will go directly to work helping
veterans programs in southwest Florida and making a difference in the
lives of local veterans.”
The six HeadPinz & Bowland centers teamed up for several events last
month, including a no-tap tournament and a “Race to the Bar” promo-
tion with local radio station 93X in Fort Myers. Bowland Centers are
located throughout southwest Florida: Beacon Bowl in Naples, Coral
Lanes in Cape Coral and Bowland Pt. Charlotte. HeadPinz
Entertainment Centers are in Cape Coral, Fort Myers and Naples.
BVL has raised more than $50 million since 1942 to provide recreation
grants at VA hospitals and clinics throughout the country. Fund-raising
events in bowling and entertainment centers occur throughout the year
although many efforts are centralized around National BVL Month each
November.

Go Bowling!
PBA Tour Premieres on FOX
LOS ANGELES – FOX Sports announced the premiere of
the PBA Clash that aired on Sunday, Dec. 23, a 90-minute
special showcase event featuring eight of the 2018 Go
Bowling! PBA Tour’s top stars, a preview of the 2019 FOX
PBA series, and the debut of the unique Specto StrikeTrack
ball-tracking analysis, which becomes a mainstay of FOX
Sports’ coverage of PBA competition in 2019.
FOX and the PBA have entered into a multi-year contract
with Kegel for the use of its Specto technology to provide
real-time ball tracking during all events. Using Specto’s
technology, 2
ely new experience to the viewer with visual examples to
support the action on screen. Viewers will see a live trace of
the ball as it rolls down the lane, as well as ball speed, loca-
tion and RPM, to name a few of the features. Watch an
example here.
“We are extremely excited about this new technology
debut on our PBA events,” said Zac Fields, FOX Sports
Senior Vice President, Graphic Technology & Integration.
“StrikeTrack is able to give insight into a match like never
before to tell the story of exactly what’s happening. We
believe this will take bowling coverage to another level.
Designed specifically for bowling, StrikeTrack compares to
FlightTrack for golf, which FOX introduced in 2015 and it’s
now a standard in golf broadcasts.”
FOX PBA analyst Randy Pedersen is impressed by the
StrikeTrack technology.
“I’ve never seen anything like it. This lets the viewers see
where the ball is going down the lane, the speed, power, and
how it impacts the pins and why that resulted in a strike or
not,” he said. “It really helps quantify my analysis.”
Held at the Kegel Training Center in Lake Wales, Fla., the
PBA Clash was hosted by Rob Stone, with longtime PBA
analyst Pedersen and reporter Kimberly Pressler. The tele-
cast included a $25,000 winner-take-all single-elimination
competition with eight of the 2018 season’s leading money
winners including Jason Belmonte, Anthony Simonsen,
Dom Barrett, Andrew Anderson, EJ Tackett, Marshall Kent,
Stuart Williams and Jakob Butturff.
The telecast also featured profiles of the eight players, the
announcement of the 2018 Chris Schenkel PBA Player of
the Year and the Harry Golden PBA Rookie of the Year, and
a preview of the historic 2019 Go Bowling! PBA Tour
schedule of FOX and FS1 telecasts.
The PBA on FOX makes its 2019 debut on FS1 on Sunday,
Jan. 6 (11:00 a.m. ET), with live coverage of the PBA Hall of
Fame Classic finals on from the International Training and
Research Center in Arlington, Texas.
During the 2019 season, viewers can live stream the PBA
shows on the FOX Sports app, through the FOX and FS1
streams. The shows will be available on desktop at
FOXSports.com and through the app store or on connected
devices including Apple TV, Android TV, Fire TV, Xbox
One and Roku. In addition, all programs will be available on
FOX Sports on SiriusXM channel 83 on satellite radios and

nine pin lead after game one before roaring back with
900, the tournament high game, to take a lead they did-
n’t relinquish, holding off a late charge from AHA.
Among the boys, Pascack Valley shot a huge 1079
opener only to have Northwest Jersey Athletic
Conference powerhouse Montville move past them by
nineteen pins after two games by posting a tourney best
1116 and yet the Mustangs found themselves still in
second, forty-seven sticks back of torrid West Milford
which backed up their 991 opener with an 1113. The
Highlanders weren’t able to maintain that high level of
excellence, leaving the contest between Pascack Valley
and Montville, the winner not decided until the tenth
frame when Indians’ anchor Brian Biml struck out to
seal the victory by a scant thirteen pins.
