Kamron Doyle and Shannon Pluhowsky

Claim Team USA Trials Titles
By Lucas Wiseman USBC
LAS VEGAS - Kamron Doyle of
Brentwood, Tennessee, became
the youngest United States
Bowling Congress Team USA
Trials champion in history, while
Shannon Pluhowsky of Dayton,
Ohio, won the women's crown for
a record fifth time.
Doyle, who is 16, defeated
Marshall Kent of Yakima,
Washington, 234-206 to claim the
men's title, while Pluhowsky
defeated two-time champion
Danielle McEwan of Stony Point,
New York, 246-222, at The
Orleans Bowling Center.
In addition to earning the titles,
Doyle and Pluhowsky will now
represent Team USA at the 51st
QubicaAMF World Cup.
Doyle built a 31-pin lead midway through the championship
match and never looked back in
defeating Kent, who held the previous record as youngest champion at 19 in 2012.
"It's pretty cool to be 16 and
come out on top against the professional bowlers and other great
players in this field," said Doyle, a
four-time member of Junior Team

USA. "It's going to be a hard

record to break, I think."
Down by 21 pins early in the
women's title match, Pluhowsky
rallied with eight consecutive
strikes to close out the victory.
"I'm very excited because it's a
big year ahead for Team USA with
the World Championships in
December, and I just wanted to be
a part of it again," said Pluhowsky,
who won the Team USA Trials in
2001, 2003, 2004 and 2011. "Last
year, I led and lost in the final, and
this year I just wanted to come in
and make good shots."
In the semifinals, Doyle defeated AJ Chapman of Wichita,
Kansas,
236-189,
while
Pluhowsky took down Liz
Johnson of Cheektowaga, New
York, 234-214.
All of the players who advanced
to the stepladder finals earned
automatic spots on Team USA in
2015 by surviving a grueling fiveday, 30-game format that awarded
points based on the position in
which they finished each day.
The
National
Selection
Committee also announced the

PBA Telecast of USBC Masters on ESPN

Reaches More Than 3.5 Million Viewers
Ratings increase by 62 percent over last years telecast
ARLINGTON, Texas The Professional Bowlers Association Tour
telecast of the United States Bowling Congress Masters on ESPN was
the most-watched cable sports program on Sunday, February 8, 2015,
reaching more than 3.5 million viewers.
The telecast, which featured two-handed Australian bowler Jason
Belmonte winning a historic third-straight Masters title, averaged 1.17
million viewers in the last quarter-hour of the telecast. The two-hour
telecast averaged a 0.60 household U.S. rating representing a 62 percent increase versus the 2014 USBC Masters telecast.
Viewership numbers for the PBA on ESPN have been very encouraging, PBA Commissioner Tom Clark said. The USBC Masters was
another historic, action-packed spectacular. Sports fans nationwide are
tuning in which is great for our sponsors, players and the game. When
more people see bowling on TV, more people go bowling, become
interested in bowling, become inspired by the best.
The Masters telecast was part of a positive household U.S. ratings
increase for the PBA on ESPN this year, up 20 percent year-over-year
when compared to the 2013-14 season-to-date.
The television success comes following a partnership between PBA
and USBC to include the USBC Masters as part of the PBA Tour schedule in 2015 and 2016. The event had previously been planned for late
summer.
Belmonte became the first bowler in the sports history to win the
Masters three consecutive years. He won a drama-filled semifinal
against Hall of Famer Pete Weber of St. Ann, Missouri, before defeating AJ Johnson of Oswego, Illinois, for the title.
The USBC Masters drew a sold-out field of 336 of the best bowlers
in the world and awarded more than $250,000 in prize money.

Nick Cilento, James Kane Hit 736 Pacing Youth Travel League Bowlers
By Vince Albrecht
HACKENSACK, NJ - Bowler
City was the stop for the Stan
Niemiec Youth Travelers who,
despite the venue change, continued to storm the pin decks,
putting up huge numbers once
again. Last session, it was
Holiday II smashing its way to
high net set with a seemingly
untouchable 2627 only to have
Holiday I surpass it Sunday with
a 2691 masterpiece. In its blitz
sweep of T-Bowl, the high-flying
H I quartet enjoyed three triple
deuces and a season best 242 for
Lilly Sigona. The other nine
200s belonged to her mates,
co-bowler of the week Nick
Cilento 245-279-212-736, fourteen-year-old Ryan McGuire,
one of four freshmen who averaged 200+ on the afternoon, with
213-248-257-718 and his brother
Alex with 203-218-247-668.
T-Bowl, simply outclassed on
this occasion, was led by Josh
Spiegel who recorded 206-192.
Bowler City I put up fine numbers as well, firing a 2507 net,
torrid Paramus Catholic senior
James Kane earned co-bowler of
the week honors by matching
Cilentos 736 with games of 244235-257 in leading his team over

Fair Lawn. Passaic Tech junior

Anthony Rizzo scorched the
maples with 218-237-221-676,
twelve-year-old Trevor Savoye
had his best outing, posting 193177-191-561 and Janina Santoro
added a 191 to the fray. Fair
Lawn freshman Tyler Nappi,
second of the four ninth grade
high-rollers, tallied 612 on
games of 213-183-216, Madison
Perry had 213-187 and Katrina
Plaszky a strong over-average
finish.
In another high-scoring affair,
Montvale regained second place,
taking five of seven points from
North Arlington, 2930-2869 as
the third freshman, Pascack
Valleys Henry Tipping, pounded
the plastics with 225-195-265685, also faring well for the victors was Nick Fabiano 197-192.
Fueling North Arlingtons strikers was Jordan Lopez 222-211218-651, with 193 singles tossed
in by Donovan Battistus and
Vincent Amato. The fourth
freshman, Ridgefield Parks
Derek Lewandowski, lit up the
leader-board for Bowler City III
with closing gems of 258-255664, rarely straying from the
one-three pocket, as he teamed

with Dana-Marie Laloo 188-185

and Nick Reyes 212-225-219656 to earn seven points outshooting the blind score. Ditto
results against a vacancy for
Bowler City II thanks to balanced above average totals
stroked by George Held 193192-199-584 and Margaux
Lesser, a +32 middle game of

177.
After splitting the first two
games with Holiday II and
behind in pinfall, Boonton
rebounded with a 986 to take the
finale and snare the wood point,
2791-2775 in a nail-biter. Pacing
Boontons pin-topplers was Karl
Kattermann 225-211-620, with
help from Sean McGuire 204-

190 and Peter Hancock 194.

Holiday II was a player shy, but
competitive
with
Al
Chamberlain rolling 254-220209-683, Joe Malyack 211-190232-633 and Justin Milligan 195.
