Evans, Williams roll 300

Shawn Evans in the County League at The Bowler rolled a perfect game in his 698 set. In the AARP Seniors League, Paul Williams also scored a perfect game in his 705 set. Too bad that league in not sanctioned, missing out on national recognition plus personal awards.

The area’s top bowler for the week was Troy Smith who scored 834/289 at White Oak Lanes breaking that center’s all time high. Rob Dunkinson was next high rolling a big 286 game and 753 set. Another big game of 297 by Tommy McDonald and 736 set was in third place.

At The Bowler, Ron Fatkin was highest for the week rolling 743/278. Dave Yates followed scoring 740//268. Seth Friend was also close, a pin back bowling 739/277.

Craig Davis scored 725/268 for the week’s high at Wilson Lanes. Bob Greene’s 716/268 was next then Tommy McDonald’s 700 set with a big 290 game.

Randy Likens bowled 713/269 for the week’s high at Rainbow Lanes. CP Sines followed rolling 706/246.

At Sherwood Lanes, Ralph Knieriem scored 649/228 followed by Jeremiah Howsare rolling 637/278.

In the PBA Experience League at White Oaks, Joe Mullenax was highest rolling 691/255. Bobby Lannon and Mike Brobst were next scoring 670/235 and 667/264 respectively.

Scottie Brown was the area’s top youth bowler for the week scoring 666/245 at White Oak Lanes. Matt Riley scored 644/227 at The Bowler. Aaron Wilson rolled 622/225 at Rainbow and Danny Walch scored 520/203 at Sherwood.

Some of my readers continue to complain about not seeing their scores in the paper. To set the record straight, the editors at Times-News have the final say on what gets published and their concern is to compete with TV, Internet sites and other publications. Current events get top billing and the rest get in line depending on circumstances.

When my column was submitted on Jan. 19, the NFL playoffs were the lead story then heavy snowfall brought other problems when even the Sunday paper was not distributed until the Monday. Bowling was not close to being the top story of those following couple of weeks.

Summarizing the missed week’s highlights prior to January 19th At The Bowler: Crystal Uhl, Winchester Mxd – 678/238, Senior Ray Foster, Antique Srs. – 681/257; At Rainbow: Bryan Jose, Men’s Civic – 748/278; At Wilson Lanes: Bob Greene, Thur Men’s Dbls – 771/278, Craig Davis, Thur Men’s Trio – 736/300; White Oak Lanes: Troy Smith, Tues Nt Mxd – 753/278, Don Parsons, Industrial – 741/297.

To the complainers, get over it; appreciate the coverage we do get. Good luck bowling and have fun striking out!
