WEBER WINS FIFTH U.S. OPEN

Pete Weber Wins Record Fifth U.S.

Open to Surpass Father, Don Carter

36-time PBA Tour champion calls this one “his greatest title ever”

Pete Weber of St. Ann, Mo., became the most successful bowler in U.S Open history Sunday, February 26, winning the most challenging major title in bowling for a record fifth time at Brunswick Zone-Carolier at North Brunswick, NJ, with a strike on his final ball in the 10th frame to nip top qualifier Mike Fagan of Dallas, 215-214.

Weber, who came into the stepladder finals as the No. 4 qualifier, threw clutch shots in three matches to win, but none was more critical than his strike on his final ball in the title match. Needing at least a nine-count spare and strike to win, Weber threw a perfect pocket shot on his first ball, but left a 10 pin. After converting the spare, he threw an identical shot that carried for a strike.

In winning the title, Weber broke a tie with his late father, Professional Bowlers Association legend Dick Weber, and his father’s close friend, the late Don Carter, who each won the forerunner to the U.S. Open – the BPAA All Star – four times.

“Dad, I know you were watching,” Weber said as he looked up toward heaven after the win. “I know you’re proud, and I’m sorry I broke your record.
“This is my greatest title ever,” Weber said. “To win five U.S. Opens and pass Dick Weber and Don Carter says a lot, but I’ll never say I’m better than them. They paved the way for us to be here. It was an honor and a privilege to join them when I won my fourth U.S. Open, and it’s even more of an honor to be the first one to win five.

“This is the tournament I look forward to ever year,” he added. “I live for the U.S. Open because I know, no matter what, I have a chance to win.”

At age 49 years, 189 days, Weber became the oldest player ever to win the U.S. Open, breaking the record set by 46-year-old Norm Duke last year at Carolier. And he moved into second place on the PBA’s all-time major title-winners list with his ninth title, behind only Earl Anthony’s 10.

“That’s probably the calmest I’ve ever been needing to throw a shot to win,” he added. “Not to toot my own horn, but I think I’m prouder of myself than anyone else. I’ve always wanted to be the one to throw a strike to win.”

In advancing to the title match, Weber threw critical shots in two preliminary matches, coming from behind to defeat Ryan Shafer of Horseheads, N.Y., 223-191, in the opening match and Australia’s Jason Belmonte, 225-213, in the semifinal contest.

“I threw strikes in the seventh, eighth and ninth in all three games and put pressure on those guys,” Weber said. “The way those guys performed was excellent. My hat’s off to them. They bowled amazing.”

Weber earned $60,000 and an automatic berth in the Round of 36 for the PBA Tournament of Champions in April. Fagan collected $30,500, Belmonte $15,000 and Shafer, who failed to win a title in his 14th television appearance in a major championship, earned $10,000.

The PBA Tour’s next televised event will be the finals of GEICO Shark Open which will air next Sunday at 3 p.m. ET on ESPN. Finalists will be top qualifier Chris Barnes, Double Oak, Texas; Jason Belmonte, Australia; Sean Rash, Montgomery, Ill., and Mike Koivuniemi, Hartland, Mich.

"Little Lefty" Scores 300 & 817

Seventy year-old Monticello bowler John Hoffmann might have been questioning himself during the past two years if he had lost his ability to master another 300 game but his true professionalism was evident February 15 when he recorded his 28th career perfect game during league play in the Wednesday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes.
And to top off the 300 game two nights later on February 17 in the Friday Mixed league he smashed the maples for an 817 series off single games of 289, 269, 259.
The 300 game was rolled on lanes 9 & 10 using a Storm Marvel bowling ball. The same ball scored the 817 on lanes 5 & 6. In the 817 series Hoffmann had the first 10 strikes in the first game before leaving the 7 pin. With the February 15 perfect game Hoffman added a 258 and a 233 for a 791 series.
Prior to the 300 game John rolled a 299 several weeks ago when he left the 4 pin on the 12th ball.
His Wednesday night team is Dutch's and his team mates include Jim VanAken, Steven Belgiovene and Tom Belgiovene. Hoffmann noted he'll turn 71 in a couple of months and that he presently bowls in the Monday and Wednesday Men's leagues and the Friday Mixed league all at Kiamesha Lanes.
Hoffmann's last 300 game ( No. 27) and his third 300 game during the 2009-2010 league season was bowled on February 15, 2010 in the Monday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes.
Hoffmann also recorded three 300 games in 2009 on March 17, March 30 and November 11.
His present Monday league average is 223.
Hoffmann recorded his first 300 game on July 23, 1991 in the Essex County New Jersey Association in the 420 DBLS. SMT league at Eagle Rock Lanes.
Hoffmann is a well-known technical bowler and Mike Luongo, now a Sales Advisor and Special Events Assistant for the Storm and Roto Grip Bowling Ball Company, noted several years ago to this columnist that "John has a real nice game."
John won the high average bowler honors with a 229 in the Tri-County NY USBC Association for the 2006-07 season. He bowled professionally from 1990 to 1993 in the Northeast Regional Professional Bowlers Association where he got his "Little Lefty" nickname from former PBA Tour Bowler Tommy Delutz Jr.
Hoffmann was also the 2007 Tri-County NY USBC Champion and is also a New Jersey State Senior Champion.
USBC and former ABC records have Hoffmann with one 298, four 299 games and ten 800 plus series.
Six years ago he became a certified USBC coach and is considered an excellent teacher of the game.
Hoffmann has been bowling for some 55 years, is single, retired and lives in the South Woods Road area of the Town of Thompson.
The Bowling Tip
By Mike Luongo
Bowlers: This week's tip will focus on Bowling Ball Maintenance for all types of bowling balls used in the modern era......but we must point out that all balls should be cleaned and maintained after each use.
We will start with the plastic balls, used by new and recreational bowlers and also by experienced bowlers to make certain spares. These balls are not porous but due to the high viscosity oils used today, the oil will build up on the balls and eliminate any contact with the lane. You can use any car care product or household cleaner to clean this type of ball very easily.
Urethane balls with no additives are porous and will not absorb oil and dirt. Also use any car care products or household cleaner on these balls. If you want to keep the ball dull use an abrasive pad.
Urethane balls with additives are known as reactive or particle balls. The high performance balls are very porous and will absorb oil and dirt fast and this will diminish the performance of the ball as soon as thirty games if not maintained. You should towel the ball off each shot during use and clean the ball as soon as possible at the end of each bowling session.
There are several ways to clean a high performance ball. If your ball is dull and you would like to keep it that way, you can use warm water, dish detergent and a gray or burgundy pad.
If you find that your ball works best when polished, many products are available in many different degrees of polish to give the desired finish on the ball. Several companies sell products to match the out-of-box finish if desired.
As far as long range maintenance, if you have your ball resurfaced and the oil extracted occasionally , your ball will perform for a much longer period of time than if neglected.
Remember, you ball will treat you as well as you treat it and it will continue to perform for many games if properly maintained.

BOCES ENHANCES ITS PHYSICAL EDUCATION PROGRAM

CALLICOON--Seventeen year-old Kevin Madsen along with 34 of his fellow students at Sullivan County BOCES took part in a day of bowling at Callicoon Kristal Bowl February 16 as part of an expanded program offered by the Carol M. White Physical Education Program.
For many of the BOCES students it was their first time to learn and participate in the game of bowling and a number of the students expressed the fun they were having learning something new.
Kevin is in senior programs at the Liberty BOCES campus and noted that he was fortunate to be able to go bowling several times before this when his friends invited him to bowling parties.
I'd love to learn more about the game," he said.
A Parksville resident and the son of Brenda and Eugene Madsen, Keven said he is enjoying his BOCES education and that his favorite subject was math, "the easier math" he noted.
His BOCES educational program has also given Kevin the opportunity to work after school and on Saturday and Sunday at the Liberty Shop Rite Supermarket. He is also in the afternoon Volunteer Nursing Program and works under the supervision of RN Gloria Cahalan at the Skilled Nursing Unit of Catskill Regional Medical Center in Harris where he helps the CNA's and nurses with the elderly.
"Someday in the future I hope to get my certification and be able to work full time at the Skilled Nursing Unit of Catskill Regional Medical Center," Madsen said.
It was very evident that Kevin and his fellow BOCES students were enjoying the opportunity to get out of the classroom and learn what the game of bowling was all about.
BOCES teacher Joanne Scialabba organized this special outing which was financially supported with grants from the Carol M. White Physical Education Program. The program provides grants to community based organizations to initiate, expand and enhance physical education programs, including after school programs for students in kindergarten through 12th grade.
Ms. Scialabba pointed out that funds from this program provide equipment and support to enable students to participate in physical education activities. Funds are also used for field trips like this trip to a bowling activity.
Sullivan County BOCES has also received some new athletic equipment through this program.
The purpose and priority of the Carol M. White Physical Education Program is that applicants and schools are required to develop, expand or improve its physical education program and must address its State's physical education standards.
Schools must undertake activities including instruction in healthy eating habits and good nutrition and physical fitness activities that must include at least one of the following, fitness education and assessment to help students understand, improve or maintain their physical well-being.
The Sullivan County BOCES classes that were part of this field trip to Callicoon Kristal Bowl were part of the Sullivan BOCES Middle/High School Special Education Career Academic Program (CAP) and the Structured Teaching and Related Services (STARS) programs.
Along with the 35 students staff members who assisted Ms. Scialabba included Peter Montredo, Beverly Kolakowski, Stacey Bendle, Jodi Bivins, Jeanette Meyer, Annette Bernhardt, Julie Caruso, Cathy Cross, Shirley Townsend, Sue Dainack, Lori Parlinski, Bethany Walz and Eileen Krom.

Gasoline Prices Continue Going Up

Yes, we know it's no secret that prices at the gas pumps continue to go up even though U.S. crude supplies have increased and benchmark crude oil last week fell 86 cents to $96.98 per barrel.
And what a difference we find here in New York State when it's announced that the national average for regular gas is now at $3.48.
What is happening to our national energy independence?....demand is down yet prices go up.....it just doesn't make sense.
U.S. motorists are bracing for even higher prices at the pump and every year gas prices tend to rise when warmer weather and school vacations lure more people onto the highways.
But most folks I talk to say that independence from dictatorships and foreign oil must become a serious topic and that there should be increased domestic supplies.
Folks are speaking out about this subject and generally they are saying that we must expand American energy production and the majority of people we spoke to favor the Keystone XL pipeline.
The fact that we in this country must cope with ballooning gas prices and energy vulnerability while living in a country with some of the richest untapped energy resources on the planet is an absurdity.
Statistics show that the U.S. is sitting on enough technically recoverable oil to power us at current rates of consumption for over 250 years and those estimates suggest we have 1.4 trillion barrels of oil......or 1.7 trillion when adding in the resources of Mexico and Canada.
Goldman Sachs in a recent analysis projects that the United States could become the world leader in oil production by 2017.
America must wake up and stop banning additional development of our most promising oil and gas resources.
The potential to increase American oil and gas supplies is real folks as this country must become energy secure and independent.
With the potential for things to explode in the Middle East a lot of oil-producing countries in the world are not that politically stable and this should be a strong signal for America to increase domestic supplies with expanding energy productions.
We must embrace strategy to use the oil, natural gas, coal, bio-fuels, solar, oil shale and wind that we have available to us right here in the U.S.
Folks are sick and tired hearing that political and business issues are factors that forecast what our oil and gasoline prices will be.

Twenty-four year-old Wurtsboro bowler Donald Durland recorded his 13th career 300 on February 6 in the Kiamesha Lanes Monday Men's league and thirty-nine year-old Loch Sheldrake bowler Jaryl Scott added his 9th career 300 on February 1 in the Wednesday Men's league, also at Kiamesha Lanes.
Durland's 11th and 12th perfect games came within a weeks span.on December 5 and December 12, 2011, also in the Monday Men's league at Kiamesha.
The early weeks of December appears to be a good time of the year for Durland as he also bowled his highest career series on December 1, 2010 when he clipped the maples for a 825 off of single games of 258, 279, 288 in the Wednesday Men's League at Kiamesha Lanes.
His 11th career 300 was bowled on lanes 13-14 while his 12th 300 game was bowled on lanes 3-4. On both nights he used two bowling balls, the Hammer Jig Saw Trap and the Roto Grip Rising Star. The Hammer ball was used for his first two games on December 5 where he also scored a 276 and 232 and the Roto Grip ball helped him roll the two 300 games in the last game of both nights for a 808 series December 5 and a 201, 246, 300, 747 on December 12.
Don's present average in the Monday league is a 232 and the February 6th 300 game was rolled on lanes 3 and 4 using a Hammer Jig Saw Trap bowling ball.
In the Monday league he bowls on the Monticello Greenhouse team with team members Jaryl Scott, his father Paul Durland and Vinnie Collura.
Durland over the past several years has shown steady league growth and at one point in time competed in PBA regional tournaments. He indicated last year that "it just got too costly to compete in these events."
He is easily considered one of the premier men bowlers in the Tri-State area..
Donald recorded his first-ever 300 game during the 2005-2006 season as a youth bowler in the Saturday Morning Youth leagues at Kiamesha Lanes. His mother, Debbie Durland is one of the premier women bowlers in the Tri-County area and his father Paul and younger brother James maintain the high Durland family bowling standards.
Prior to his 825 series his previous high series was a 796 off single games of 268, 249 and 279 and was bowled several years ago in the Monday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes.
He has been bowling since the age of 5.
Donald is single and is employed by the Monticello Greenhouse.
Jaryl Scott's 300 on February 1 put all 12 strikes in the pocket on lanes 5 and 6 using a Bandit bowling ball by Roto Grip.
Scott finished the night with a 227, 228 for a 755 series. He presently maintains a 224 average in this league.
Jaryl recorded his 8th career 300 on November 23, 2009 in the Monday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes.
His 7th career 300 was bowled several years ago on April 25, 2007 in the Wednesday Men's league and he finished that night with a 246 and a 725 series, The 6th 300 game was bowled on Sunday, March 25, 2007 in makeup matches for the Monday Men's league which resulted in a 300, 239, 279, 813.
Jaryl's 5th perfect game was put in the books on January 10, 2007 and ended with an 805 series.
For several years Scott bowled in a few Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) regional tournaments. He is considered one of the top bowlers in the Tri-County area.
His Wednesday Night team, the Oreo, consists of George Battle. Tim McIntyre and Josh Strang.
Jaryl is single and the father of four children, Jeremiah, Elijah, Braeden and Juliana.
He is employed by C & S Grocery in their warehouse in Chester, NY.

The Bowling Tip
By Mike Luongo

Bowlers: One of the previous tips was designed to help you achieve the correct body position to properly execute a bowling shot and be able to repeat it.
This week, we will cover the release, information that will help bowlers of all levels.
A properly executed release is possibly one of the most misunderstood parts of a bowling shot. Most bowlers tend to muscle the ball through the release zone, either accelerating or decelerating on the downswing. The proper release for all bowlers, (whether you are a six-year-old with a conventional grip or an accomplished bowler with many years experience) can be executed by letting gravity bring the ball from the top of the swing through the release zone with no interference from your arm or shoulder muscles.
If the ball fits properly, the gravity will take it off your hand at the right time providing your body is in the proper position. Any rotation on the ball should come from your hand only, not your arm.
Using the proper technique will allow you to get as much rotation on the ball as desired.
Note, however, if your ball does not fit properly, it will require excessive grip pressure to hold on to which will make the release harder to execute.
Aside from bowling, for those of you that have played golf, you can strike the ball much better and with more accuracy if you do not pull the club down from the top of the swing with your shoulder muscles. Gravity can be your best friend or worst enemy depending on how you use it.

Still Time For Flowers & Candy

If you're reading this and it's slipped your mind that today is Valentine's Day there still is time to get in on this romantic event for lovers.
It's that time of the year folks to exchange, cards, small gifts, flowers, chocolates, jewelry, take your sweetheart out for a romantic dinner or even to fall in love, get engaged or get married.
Retail stores, restaurants and many merchants say this holiday gives a nice boost to the February (winter) economy.
The traditions of Valentine's Day are broad and many with the roots of this day going back to ancient times when people paid honor to the Roman God of Fertility and was celebrated as the Feast of Lupercalia, celebrated of course on February 14.
Riding high on the popular list of gifts purchased for this day is chocolate and statistics point out that during both before and on the actual day some 75% of the chocolate purchases are made by men......retail sales say over $1 billion of chocolate is purchased for Valentine's Day.
This popular holiday is named after St. Valentine, the patron saint of Valentine's Day and a brief history of St. Valentine is that during the days of the Roman empire Christianity was discriminated against and Christian marriages were forbidden at that time.
St. Valentine, then the Bishop of Rome, continued to preach Christianity and to perform christian marriages. He was imprisoned and later executed. In one of his last letters he signed is "From your Valentine", which is where this holiday then got it's name.
Cupid is of course the most recognized symbol of love and Valentine's Day would not be complete without speaking of Cupid, the God of Love.
Cupid will be shooting his arrows of love this day and if he hits you, you might fall helplessly in love with the next person you meet......Happy Valentine's Day.

Almost Two 300's In The Same Game

One stubborn 7 pin separated two well-known Sullivan County bowling brothers from recording two separate 300 games in the same game, on the same team on January 30 in the Monday Night Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes.
On the first ball of the first game of a Monday league match Monticello kegler Eddie Lake rolled a high flush and left the 7 pin. He made the spare and then struck out for a 290 single. Eddie ended up the night with a 245, 728.
His brother, and anchorman for the Team Lake team, Rick Lake then rolled 12 strikes in a row for his 4th career perfect game.
It's only a little less than a year ago that 50-year-old Rick Lake recorded his third-career 300 in the Monday Men's league at Kiamesha Lanes on April 18, 2011.
Rick's 300 was recorded on lanes 9-10 using an Ebonite Gyro (urethane) bowling ball with all the strikes reported as good shots.
Rick has been on a hot streak lately and had back to back 825 and 810 series a month ago.
Lake comes from a well known and highly respected Sullivan County bowling family.
His third 300 was bowled on March 8, 2010.
Rick's first perfect game was bowled 7 to 8 years ago at Kiamesha Lanes in the Monday Men's league.
He presently carries a 228 average in this the only league he bowls in.
Rick finished the night with a 651 series.
His Monday night team is called Team Lake and includes his father Micky Lake, Roy Sweeney and his brother Eddie Lake.
Rick's mom, Joan Lake, has been a dominant force in area bowling circles for a number of years and brother Eddie presently maintains a 227 average is considered one of the top male bowlers in the tri-county area.
Rick has been bowling for some 46 years starting out in the Kiamesha Lanes youth leagues.
In addition to bowling Rick golf's in a couple of area leagues and he and his wife are noted motorcycle enthusiasts who enjoy riding their Harley-Davidson throughout the country.
Rick has been married to his wife Jane for almost 20 years. The Lake's have no children and Rick is a 28-year employee at the Catskill Regional Medical Center.

The Bowling Tip
By Mike Luongo

Learning the five fundamentals of a good bowling shot.
So very often we forget the most basic steps that are designed to help us have fun and score a good game.
These steps include getting ready in the stance position by taking a deep breath, bringing in air into your nose and exhaling through your mouth.
The next step is getting lined up, before the start of your match practice a couple of shots to see what the lane conditions are and even take a look at other bowlers and see what they are doing. You should watch your ball reaction and don't force your ball to curve. Equipment selection is important here.
Want good balance then make your first step a short one.....this adds greatly to ending up with good balance when you release your ball.
Keeping a loose swing is also important, stay away from using too much muscle. When you are ready to bowl make sure your hand and arm are relaxed before you start your approach.
As you start the ball moving in your approach, make sure that the ball moves in a straight line toward the target on the lane. This will prevent your swing from going off line. Let the rest of your swing be relaxed and keep it in a straight line toward your target.

Here & There Column 2-7-12

Are They Really "Working Together"?

A considerable amount of public backlash appears to have pushed the Sullivan County Legislature to not look for a new tourism agency this year but this issue is not stopping and will be continued the next time proposals for a new contract are brought up.
Sullivan County's new legislature chairman Scott Samuelson following his oath taking ceremony said, "this is a bipartisan body and we're looking forward to working together," but the new Democratic majority (which includes Samuelson) appeared to be showing different colors recently when they bypassed the normal committee process, apparently making decisions behind closed doors, and then voted 5-4 on a resolution authorizing bids on tourism-marketing services which which could have replaced the present Sullivan County Visitors Association.
Of course there has been the denial that a backroom deal was struck with other Democrats to change agencies.
What took place certainly raises some questions as to what happened to the Legislature's new Democratic majority which campaigned on openness and transparency.
During his inaugural remarks Samuelson spoke broadly about how "this is only the beginning" and that "there is much to do to regain the trust of the citizenry of this great community," and "there will be a new way of doing business in Sullivan County."
These are great and inspiring comments by the new legislature chairman but for an issue to be brought before the full board, with no public notice, and which it appears was discussed by one political party in closed session, the issue of open government and what some have called backroom politics send the wrong message to the folks throughout Sullivan County.
If this is what was meant by the statements that there was going to be a new way of doing business in Sullivan County and that there was much to do to regain the trust of the citizenry then the promises of the Democrats and the legislature chairman do not ring out with truthfulness.
The theme of working together harmoniously quickly become tainted if politics is going to play a leading role in this and future decisions.
We strongly support legislature decisions to examine any agency working for the county where public funds are used but do it openly so that the public knows what is taking place and that all board members are brought into the discussion and decision making process.
Legislators who approved the resolution authorizing bids on tourism marketing services included Kathy LaBuda, Gene Benson, Cora Edwards, Cindy Geiger and Scott Samuelson. Voting against the resolution were Ira Steingart, Jonathan Rouis, Alan Sorenson and Kitty Vetter.
The new legislature during its first full days of committee meetings did not publicly discuss the idea of potentially replacing the Sullivan County Visitors Association and this matter was not on an emailed agenda the morning of the day the resolution authorizing bids on tourism-marketing services was approved.
All legislators should be given the opportunity for input on all matters brought before the full board, otherwise it just starts looking like the same "good old boy politics" and promises of working together and being a bipartisan body is nothing but BS.
The Sullivan County Visitors Association appears to have been given the green light for this year because the legislature says they did not want to disrupt the marketing plans in place already for this year.
It will be interesting to see how the process plays out next January.

New Youth Development Manager

The International Bowling Congress Youth Development Department has announced the hiring of Corey Robinson as the new Bowler's Ed brand manager.
Robinson will be helping bowling centers get involved with their local schools to bring an In-School program to the classroom or gym.
"Corey is a perfect fit to work with educations at all grade levels," said ChadMurphy, director of Youth Development at the International Bowling Campus in Arlington, Texas. "His education and athletic background meld perfectly into his new position working with educators and bowling proprietors."
Robinson comes to his new position after spending the past 13 years as an educator and football coach from the junior high level to the Division I collegiate level. His most recent stop was at Hutchinson Community College in Kansas where he was the associate head coach and co-offensive coordinator as well as the academic coordinator for football.
He received his B.S. in social work at Western New Mexico University and a Master's in education and athletic administration from Nova Southeastern University in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. A veteran of the U.S. Army, Robinson served in Desert Storm and received the U.S. Army Commendation Medal.
The Bowler's Ed program is designed to introduce children to bowling in the classroom. Teachers have access to a free step-by-step curriculum, a video explaining the fundamentals of bowling and special discounts for equipment.
The program helps proprietors in developing partnerships with their schools to determine what the center can offer the school, shows how to set up workshops to explain the program, how to implement the program in the school and tracking the success of the program.
Proprietors can get all the tools needed to develop partnerships with school in their areas at the all new Youth Resource Center at BPAA.com/resourcecenter.
Cory Robinson can be called at 800-343-1329, ext. 8432 or email at crobinson@ibcyouth.com

THE BOWLING TIP
BY MIKE LUNGO

This tip is for all bowlers regardless of age or level of play.
So very often today bowlers find themselves off balance at the foul line,
While there are many reasons for this, what you may not realize is that most bad finishes are a result of a bad start.
The tip: Check your first step and see if it's too long. This will cause you to push the ball away too far and then your feet will have to play "catch up" to keep you from falling down.
Try a smaller first step next time........is may help.
