HAMMOND, Ind. Jack Jurek of Lackawanna,
N.Y., who has endured a series of bad breaks in his
quest for his first PBA50 Tour title, made a break-
through when he struck on eight of his first nine shots
to defeat PBA Hall of Famer Randy Pedersen of
Clermont, Fla., 242-205, in the title match of the
PBA50 South Shore Open at Olympia Lanes.
Its never an easy battle out here, Jurek said. Ive
won a couple of Steve Nagy Sportsmanship Awards
because Ive lost a lot of times in title matches and
people think Im a nice guy.
Jurek, who had disappointing losses in Dayton,
Ohio, a week earlier after losing a crushing loss to
Hall of Famer Walter Ray Williams Jr. earlier in the
year in the USBC Senior Masters title match, came
into the finale in Hammond with a fresh attitude,
thanks in part to some advice he got from Pedersen,
his traveling roommate.
(Randy) and I talked a little after my debacle in
Dayton and he gave me some thoughts about how he
approaches things, Jurek said. It helped. Ive got a
lot of guys who have been trying to help. (PBA leg-
end) Mark Roth has been telling me, stop being so
nice. Go beat people, so tonight I just decided to go
for it. I was a lot more aggressive than I have been.
Against Pedersen, Jureks only major mistake was
leaving a 2-4-8-10 split in the fourth frame, but oth-
erwise he was nearly perfect.
Jack was due, Pedersen said. Hes been bowling
really well. After he left the 2-4-8-10 (in the fifth
frame), I was wondering if the old Jack was going to
show up or the new one. He persevered.

Thousands of grassroots league
bowlers men, women, seniors
and especially kids have treas-
ured memories of bowling in PBA
Pro-Am events, where they team
up with PBA stars and stars-to-be.
But few pro-am bowlers have ever
had an experience quite like the
one six-year-old Brianna Archabal
had during the PBA Boise
West/Northwest Open at 20th
Century Lanes in Boise, Idaho, on
July 25.
The daughter of former PBA
Regional player Scot Archabal was
bowling on the same pair of lanes
with 2013 PBA Regional Finals
champ Ben Laughlin of Chandler,
Ariz., who started his game with 11
strikes. Laughlin then told Brianna
that he gets very nervous when hes
so close to bowling a 300 game,
and asked her if shed throw the
last ball for him.
She didand she struckand
the crowd went wild.
Anyone who has kids had tears
in their eyes, wrote Christian
Ashcraft, who also was bowling on
the same pair of lanes. I dont
have any way to thank Ben person-
ally for making that little girls day,
but I really appreciate what he did.
Briannas mother Samantha
Archabal notes that her daughter is
no stranger to PBA pro-ams. She
attended her first one when she was
two weeks old.

Jack Jurek Wins PBA50 South Shore Open Title
By Bill Vint - PBA
YORK, Pa. Anthony Pepe of Elmhurst, New York.
defeated Travis Celmer of Wernersville,
Pennsylvania, 278-246, to win the PBA Bowlers
Supply/Storm Products Eastern Open at Colony Park
North Lanes.
Pepe and Celmer, who faced each other many times
in youth tournaments, each started the championship
match with strings of strikes. Celmer broke off after
five and missed a single pin spare. Pepe, who had the
first six strikes, converted a split in the seventh frame
before striking out to close out the match. Pepe
earned $3,100 and his first PBA title for the win
while Celmer earned $1,600 as the runner-up.
Pepe, who was known as a high caliber amateur
bowler, competed in several PBA regional events as a
non-member prior to joining the PBA before the 2013
PBA World Series of Bowling. He won twice as a
non-member in 2010 at Egg Harbor, New Jersey,
and in 2011 in Howell, New Jersey. His win came in
just his fourth PBA East Regional event as a member.
It was Celmers third runner-up finish in the last four
years in the York event.
Pepe advanced to the championship match by defeat-
ing PBA Tour champion Ryan Ciminelli of
Cheektowaga, New York 231-201. Celmer defeated
reigning East Region Rookie of the Year Gary Haines
of West Babylon, New York, 228-181, in the other
semi-final match. Ciminelli and Haines each earned
$1,100.

Some of the things that make
bowling so great are also the
things that make it one of the most
complicated competitive sports for
outsiders to understand.
For instance, in most sports
there is a somewhat cut and dried
legal line dividing amateurs from
pros. In most cases, it is tied to
money earnings. Simply put, if
you make money in a sport, or try
to make money competing in a
sport, you are a pro. If you don't
accept money or valuable and
high costing merchandise prizes,
then you are an amateur.
In bowling that distinction is
based on whether you're a mem-
ber of a professional bowling
organization or on some vague
guidelines as to what constitutes a
professional. Ability means noth-
ing. Earnings mean next to noth-
ing. So we have a situation where-
by an amateur can win $100,000,
or even a million, and for all prac-
tical purposes, remain an ama-
teur.
On the other side you have the
professionals. It isn't the most dif-
ficult task to become a member of
a pro bowling organization. They
are many pros that don't win
$1,000 in a year, and there are
some who don't win $100.
Still, many tournament promot-
ers and many organizations in the
sport bar pros of any sort. There
are many, many big money win-
ning so-called amateurs with more
than adequate professional ability.
And there more than enough on
paper pros.
So where does all this put bowl-
ing? It puts us on the top rung of
confusion, with an A in misunder-
standing, and highest honors in
nonstandardization, inexplicable
rules, and undefinable regulations.
There was a day when most
bowlers, within their average
range class, wanted to bowl with
and against the best, and so sought
competition a bit higher than their
level. Today, a host of top level,
pro ability bowlers won't join a
pro group because that will bar
them from certain tournaments.
So they stay as non-pros, and often
are rewarded because much of
their top level competition is
barred.
Man is a competitive animal,
and so are bowlers, but they aren't
stupid it's always easier to take the
easy way out and in many cases
bowling makes that possible.
It could be that the easy way for
bowlers is also the easier way for
league and tournament promoters
do what you must, to gain the
most participants, including easy
scoring and all forms of bowling
gambling.
It could be that bowling man-
ages to survive with many bowlers
who are just looking for a few
hours of diversion to get away
from something and really aren't
into bowling, but are into what the
bowling atmosphere can provide,
some fun, some mixing, some
recreation, some exercise, and
some escape.
But the lasting and stick-to-it
appeal of the game must be in
bowlers wanting to learn more
about the sport, wanting to
improve, and wanting to be com-
petitive, and that doesn't mean
just for big money.
Earl Anthony was just as com-
petitively shooting for a two-inch
high trophy as he is when he's
going for $100,000. And there are
bowlers of all averages who are
just as competitive as Anthony.
What does it all mean? It means
that bowling must first and fore-
most be a sport. It means that
there must be a second and third
look at the rules governing junior,
high school, college, amateur and
pro bowlers. it means we must
uncomplicate our most complicat-
ed areas as soon as possible.

AT ROCKVILLE CENTRE
LONG POND, PA Two of
America's great past times, racing
and bowling, came together as
GoBowling.com served as title
sponsor for the NASCAR Sprint
Cup Series race at Pocono
Raceway. The race was won by
Dale Earnhardt Jr, his third victo-
ry of the season and the 21st of
his career, and his first season
sweep at a track since Talladega
Superspeedway in 2002.
The race honored both the
GoBowling.com 400 and the 40th
anniversary of the raceway's first
NASCAR Sprint Cup Series event
where Richard Petty drove the
STP Oil Treatment car and became
the inaugural winner of the
Pennsylvania 500 on August 4,
1974. To celebrate the moment,
Petty returned to Pocono Raceway
to serve as Grand Marshal.
Additionally, in a tribute to both
the great sport of bowling and
Petty himself, Richard Petty
Motorsports (RPM)'s Aric
Almirola drove the No. 43 Ford
Fusion, which featured an eye
catching bowling themed paint
scheme and GoBowling.com
branding.
"This weekend was a deeply
meaningful opportunity to relive
the excitement of that first victory
at the Pocono Raceway in 1974,"
said Petty. "This was a weekend of
fun and excitement, and also an
opportunity to shine attention on
two great sports that bring people
together, create wonderful memo-
ries, and are Americana at its best
- racing and bowling."
For the second consecutive year,
the race was renamed the
GoBowling.com 400 and featured
the branded GoBowling.com No.
43 Ford Fusion. Additionally,
Pocono Raceway, RPM and Strike
Ten Entertainment initiated a
multi-layered integrated market-
ing campaign that spanned tradi-
tional, digital and social channels,
and included event activations.
"The incredible resurgence in
popularity that bowling has seen
in recent years is reflected in the
success of the GoBowling.com
400," said John Harbuck, Interim
President of Strike Ten
Entertainment. "We were thrilled
to once again partner with the
great teams at Pocono Raceway
and Richard Petty Motorsports,
and I'm proud to say that we set
the bar even higher with this year's
race."
Pocono Raceway, also known as
"The Tricky Triangle," is family-
owned and situated in the beauti-
ful Pocono Mountains of
Pennsylvania. In business for
more than 50 years, the Raceway
hosts multiple, national motor-
sports events including two
NASCAR Sprint Cup Series, one
Verizon IndyCar Series, one
NASCAR Camping World Truck
Series, two ARCA Racing Series
presented by Menards and one
Indy Lights Series presented by
Cooper Tires events each year.
The Raceway has added multiple
running series events to their
annual schedule including the
Tough Mudder and the Warrior
Dash. Pocono Raceway is the
world's largest solar-powered
sports facility with a 25-acre,
three-megawatt solar farm provid-
ing the energy needs of the
Raceway, as well as, adding elec-
tricity to the local power grid. For

THE MAGIC AT MAJESTIC
In the first semifinal round between a pair of PBA
Hall of Famers, Pedersen defeated Pete Weber of St.
Ann, Mo., 267-226, putting a crimp in Webers hopes
to overtake fellow PBA Hall of Famer Norm Duke in
the 2014 PBA50 Player of the Year race. That battle
will be decided in the PBA50 Tours season finale in
Welch, Minn.
Duke, who leads the race with 56 points, failed to
add to his total in Hammond when he was eliminated
in the Round of 8. Weber picked up four points for
finishing fourth to increase his total to 48 heading
into Welch, Minn. Tom Baker of King, N.C., also
remains in contention with 44 points. In the Player of
the Year competition, 16 points will be awarded to the
tournament winner, the runner-up gets eight points,
third-place is worth four points and the fourth-place
finisher earns two points.
In the second semifinal match, Jurek, a PBA50
Tour rookie and two-time PBA Tour title winner,
used a string of nine strikes to defeat Canadian John
Chapman, 267-206. For Chapman, who was trying
for his first PBA50 title, it was his highest finish as a
senior player.
The most dramatic match of the tournament came
in the best-of-five-game Round of 16 when Chapman
eliminated Duke, 3-2. After Duke jumped out to a 2-
0 lead, Chapman rallied to win the last three games,
247-234, 231-224 and 248-247.

Mason Janzen
Hit 300 at Sparta
By Joan Taylor
SPARTA, NJ - Mason Janzen, 17,
saw his first perfect game after
only 3 years of bowling. This was
at Sparta Lanes in the junior schol-
arship league. He used an older
ball that he father bought used.
Hey, whatever works!
There are 2 punch lines for this
story: the first is that his average
then was around 152 and the sec-
ond is that he bowled his big game
against his sister, Justina, 15. She
was happy for me, he said.
(Update: Joe Janzen just mes-
saged that Mason had a 298 game
this week)
Three years ago Mason tried out
for his schools basketball team
and didnt qualify. His friend,
Ryan Scholz wanted to bowl so
Mason joined a league with him.
He is in one winter league, bowl-
ing for Walkill Valley Regional
High School.
