John Adams Tossed 299
At North Arlington Bowl
LAS VEGAS Four-time
Professional Bowlers
Association title winner RyanShafer of Horseheads, N.Y.,
earned another chance to win
his first major title on Jan. 15
after advancing to the finals of
the PBA World Championship
in the Billy Hardwick Division
finals that aired on ESPN.
Shafer, who has made a PBA-
record 12 championship round
appearances in major tourna-
ments without a title, defeated
Andres Gomez of Colombia,
191-177, to win the second of
four PBA World Championship
elimination rounds at South
Point Hotel Exhibition Hall.
The divisional finals consist ofthree one-game rounds, starting
with four players, and eliminat-
ing the lowest-scoring player after each game.
Shafer will join Finlands Osku Palermaa, winner
of the Don Carter Division, and the winners of the
Johnny Petraglia and Mike Aulby Division finals in
the World Championship finals on ESPN on Sunday,
Jan. 15, at 1 p.m. ET. The PBA World Championship
offers a $50,000 first prize and the first major title of
the 2011-12 PBA Tour season.
Shafer, who is celebrating his 25th season as a PBA
Tour competitor, established command in the opening
game, recovering from a missed split conversion in
the second frame to reel off nine consecutive strikes
for a 267 game. Venezuelas Ildemaro Ruiz, making
his PBA television debut, was second with a 258 fol-
lowed by Gomez with a 222. The groups top qualifi-er, 2009 PBA World Champion Tom Smallwood of
Saginaw, Mich., was eliminated with a 194 game
after failing to convert 4-7-9 and 4-9 splits in the
sixth and eighth frames, respectively.
Gomez led the group in game two, starting with
five strikes on his way to a 219. Shafer was next with
a 207 and Ruiz was eliminated after posting a 180.
Shafer jumped out to a 29-pin lead after four frames
in the final game, but failed to convert the 3-6-10 in
the fifth frame and the 3-6-7-10 split in the ninth.
While Gomez had his own problems as the lane con-
ditions deteriorated, he still had a chance to win after
Shafer opened in the ninth frame. Needing two
strikes and eight pins in the 10th frame to lock Shafer
out, he left the 2-8-10 split. Needing only seven pins
to clinch the win, Shafer struck
on his next shot.
I threw that shot in the ninthframe as good as I could possibly
throw it, Shafer said, but I just
didnt move far enough right.
I thought I had blown another
one. Ive had some bad breaks in
majors when I bowled pretty
good and guys I bowled against
bowled better, but Ive blown a
few, too. You just dont want to
make that your history, your rep-
utation.
I usually dont get excited and
show up my opponent, Shafer
said of his emotional display
after his 10th frame strike, but
that one meant a lot to me.
Andres is a great guy, and hemade a great shot in the 10th,
too. I know he can make a great
shot when he needs to make one, but it just didnt
work. I definitely got a second life, but I got to the
finals and now well see what happens next.
The Hardwick finals were conducted on the PBAs
Scorpion lane condition, selected by Smallwood as
the highest qualifier in the Hardwick field.
The Johnny Petraglia Division finalists will be the
next group to bowl, on New Years Day at 1 p.m. ET
on ESPN. Sean Rash of Montgomery, Ill., who led all
World Championship qualifiers by 296 pins, has
selected the Scorpion pattern as the lane condition for
this elimination round. Other Petraglia Division play-
ers will be PBA Hall of Famer Pete Weber of St. Ann,
Mo.; left-hander Ryan Ciminelli of Cheektowaga,
N.Y., and Nathan Bohr of Wichita, Kan. Weber, whohas won 35 PBA Tour titles including eight majors,
has won more titles and more majors than the rest of
the 15 World Championship finalists combined (17
titles, two majors). Bohr, the only non-titlist in the
group, will make his PBA television debut.
The Petraglia Division finals air on Sunday, New
Years Day, at 1 p.m. ET on ESPN. The Mike Aulby
Division finals, completing the preliminary elimina-
tion rounds, will air on Jan. 8, also at 1 p.m. ET.
Special pre-game shows will be webcast beginning
on the Wednesday preceding the ESPN finals on
pba.coms Xtra Frame and a post-game Xtra Frame
interview with the winners will immediately follow
the Sunday telecasts.

Bowling statistics are a lot like
bathing suits. They show plenty,
but not everything.
For instance, the money win-
ning list is important, and the
goal of every pro is to top the
list. Yet, a bowler can get red hot
in a string of events, win them orfinish high, and maybe cop a
super special high paying event,
and can become the leading
money winner, even though he
cashed in a small percentage of
the tournaments in which he
competed.
Good guides to a bowler's abil-
ity are the percentage of cashes
and the average money won per
tournament.
Averages can be very deceiv-
ing, among pros and amateurs.
As we all know, scoring condi-
tions vary, boy do they vary. In
one event a 210 average could
win, while in another a 230 aver-ages results in an also-ran posi-
tion. Thus you could have one
bowler with a less than 210 aver-
age who just happened to roll on
all the most difficult lane condi-
tions, and another who averaged
better than 220 because he hap-
pened to roll on the soft condi-
tions. In some cases the lower
average bowler could be a better
bowler.
There are unfair handicaps in
that area of bowling. A bowler
can roll in one center one night a
week in one league where condi-
tions create low scoring, and he
can post a legitimate average,
true but low. His handicap is
based on that average, and
before it can be adjusted, he can
feast on easier conditions, and
win some big prize money.
And that's an honest bowler.
Imagine what can, and does
happen, when a bowler plots
and plans the low average
script.
Because bowling is such a
numbers game, from the pin
count of a single ball to the
grand total of 1,000 games or
more, all sorts of statistics are
recorded. The trouble comes
when those statistics are taken
for gospel, rather than given a
close, second look.
One bowler can average 10
pins higher than another but
isn't as valuable to a team
because he chokes in the clutch,
or he gets most of his big gameswhen the games are out of the
wood, or he comes up with a real
big game every now and then
that carry a lot of lesser games
to a good average but losing
efforts in team and head to head
competition.
Bowling still remains the rare
sport to overly reward begin-
ners for being terrible, and
rewards them even more if they
get worse. Not only that, but
they are allowed to roll for big
money or major awards after
only a year or two in the sport.
Handicaps were created to
equalize and find a way to put alower average bowler on a par
with those who are better so that
they can fairly compete in the
same leagues and tournaments.
But contrary to much com-
plaining, too often too much
handicap is awarded, so much
so that in some events bowlers
roll better than 900 for a three
game stint and 800s and high
700s are common. They are not
common in ordinary play.
The major problem with most
handicap systems is that they
are based on the premise that
every bowler in every game is
doing his or her best. That just
isn't so.
Too many bowlers seem to be
looking for too many edges in
constructing teams better than
the average limits. There was a
time when bowlers wanted to
bowl against the best and move
up in class by learning more
against the better bowlers
rather than getting more free
pins.
Bowling statistics, like bathing
suits, should be a guide, because
there could be more than meets
the eye.
The 2010-11 USBC National
Standard High Average and High
Series AwardsBy Matt Cannizzaro - USBC
In the Standard high series category, three bowlers rolled a 900
series to tie in the Adult Male division.
Bill Howell III of Middletown, N.Y., accomplished the feat during
the Bruce Bryan 3 Person league at Tarsio Lanes 52 on Oct. 21,
2010, and five weeks later, on Nov. 28, Matt Latarski of Medina,
Ohio, rolled a 900 series during the Sunday Morning Trio at
Roseland Lanes. Bob Kammer Jr. of Crown Point, Ind., became the
18th bowler in history with a perfect series when he tossed his on
Jan. 8, 2011 during the Saturday Invitational League at Stardust
Bowl II in Merrillville, Ind.
Quantrelle Green of Douglasville, Ga., had the top series for adultfemales with 870 (280, 300, 290), which was rolled in the Monday
Night Big Money league on Sept. 27, 2010 at Suburban Lanes.
In the youth division, Justin Tan of Flower Mound, Texas, came
within one frame of becoming the second youth bowler to record a
900 series, and took home the Youth Male honor with 879 (300, 300,
279) at AMF Lewisville Lanes. During the 2009-10 season, Tan led
all youth males in the nation with a 239 average.
Katelyn Simpson of Boise, Idaho, topped the Youth Female divi-
sion with games of 233, 300 and 299 for an 832 series in the Chiefs
league at Meridian Lanes.
In the adult category for Standard high average, Patrick Partilla of
Wilkes Barre, Pa., posted the second-highest average in USBC his-
tory with a 259 mark for 93 games in the Chacko's FBC/Dan's Pro
Shop league at Chacko's Family Bowling Center. Only Jeff Carter of
Springfield, Ill., has averaged higher, posting a 261.7 average dur-
ing the 2000-01 season.
Teri Haefke of Austintown, Ohio, averaged 242 for 96 games in
the Thursday Night Matchplay league at Amron Lanes to lead all
women.
Colin Dall of Council Bluffs, Iowa, averaged 240 for 90 games in
the Thunderbolts AM league at Thunderbowl to earn Youth Male
honors, while Lizabeth Kuhlkin of Schenectady, N.Y., led all youth
females with a 225 mark in the Saturday AM Major at Sportsman's
Bowl. She also led the nation a year ago with a 228 average.

ARLINGTON, Texas - With
help from Mayor Kip Holden,
construction on the venue that will
be home to the 2012 United States
Bowling Congress Open
Championships got underway in
Baton Rouge, La., last week.
Holden and Baton Rouge Area
Convention and Visitors Bureau
President and CEO Paul Arrigo
helped snap the official string line
and turned over the keys to the
Baton Rouge River Center as dig-nitaries, supporters and media got
their final look at the empty con-
vention center before construction
crews turn it into a state-of-the-art
bowling stadium.
"We are excited to welcome the
2012 USBC Open Championships
back to Baton Rouge," Arrigo
said. "It is a pleasure to host the
largest indoor participatory sport-
ing event in the world. We look
forward to the bowlers and their
families returning to our city to
enjoy our culture, cuisine and hos-
pitality."
Earlier in the week, the USBC
tournament crew welcomed the
first of more than 40 truckloads of
materials needed to transform the
River Center into the biggest stage
in bowling. Construction is sched-
uled to be complete during the
first week of February.
The finished venue will include
48 tournament lanes, four show-case lanes, squad room, locker
room, concession area, offices and
vendor space that will be bustling
with nearly 60,000 bowlers during
the tournament's 151-day run from
Feb. 11-July 10.
So far, more than 11,300 teams
are registered to compete in the
2012 Open Championships, which
will be the event's second visit to
Louisiana. It first was held there,
also in Baton Rouge, in 2005.
"We're excited about being back
in Baton Rouge, and we can't wait
for the bowlers to see all of the
changes to the city and the River
Center since we were here in
2005," said Brian Lewis, USBC
Managing Director of
Tournaments. "We truly enjoyed
the southern hospitality the first
time around, and the community
has rolled out the red carpet for us
again this year. It has been nice to
see some familiar faces, and it hasbeen even better to see the trucks
rolling in."
WEBCAMS MOUNTED AND
READY Since being introduced in
2004, one of the most popular fea-
tures of the USBC Open
Championships page on
BOWL.com has been the unique
interactive webcams that are
mounted in the rafters above the
tournament lanes and give friends
and family members a chance to
watch the bowlers in action.
Traditionally, there have been five
webcams capable of taking live
(still) pictures of the tournament
action as it happens. Beginning in
2012, two of the cameras will be
replaced with streaming cameras
that will sweep the venue throughout
the day and provide non-stop live
video footage. The other three cam-
eras will maintain the same capabil-
ities bowlers and fans are used to.
Viewers will be able to manipulatethe three point-and-click cameras
from home, allowing them to zoom
in or out to photograph different
parts of the venue.
Currently, one of each type of
camera is up and running, so visitors
can stop by and check out how the
construction process is unfolding at
the River Center. The webcams can
be accessed by visiting the Open
Championships page on
BOWL.com.
ENTRY DEADLINE

The entry deadline for the 2012
USBC Open Championships has
been extend to March 1, 2012, so
interested team captains have time
