2013 Hall of Fame Inductees Announced


The Danville Bowling Association has just released their 2013 Entrants to the Bowling Hall of Fame. They are: Achievement, Michael Seward, Service Bobby White, and Senior Sam Edwards. They will be inducted into the Hall on Saturday March 2nd at Spankys banquet hall. Tickets for the banquet can be purchased from any DABA or DWBA board members.
     Looking at the reports I have received this week, looks as if we have some great scores to report to you. Also a couple of tournaments have released their final standings. However, saying this, if you want to make sure your results get the publications that it deserves, please send me an e-mail to illinabowling@gmail.com.  If you just post it on Facebook, I may, or may not see it.
    Speaking of tournaments, I have received 2 reports via e-mail.
    First, the recent city tournament results: The Triple X Pro Shop, consisting of Kyle Sirratt, Bobby Fauver, Jason Turner, Jerrad Reed and Darren Van Duyn all put together a great group of scores to win first place in the team event. For Doubles, we had Michael Seward and Don Miller, who combined, totaled a 1427. Jason Turner was the top scorer in both singles and all events with a 763 series.
    No tap tournament results at Bulan's from this past Saturday nite were  1st,  Ashley Martin and Kevin West, and a two way tie for 2nd and 3rd consisting of Danielle and Scott Lewallen and Robin and Jerry Sims.
    Speaking of No Tap, we have a double report from the Monday Nite No Tap League. Tops honors this week go out to Cal Richards, who rolled not 1, but 2 300 games. That’s right, back to back perfect games. Richards’ normal game average is a 193, so he was 107 pins over for each of those games for a total series of 766. Also rolling 300 games were Joe Davis and Robbie Ketcherside. Ketcherside had series of 747, and 684. Davis had a 743 series. Terry Jones was able to sneak in there with a 722.
