Congratulations to Kyle Sirratt for shooting
300 on September 25th in league at Bulans.
A few years back, while bowling in the Senior State
Tournament, and committed a foul. I was
surprised to say the least, as I knew for a fact I did not step over the foul
line. The scorer however, called a foul on me, and I looked at her, arms
uplifted, and with a puzzled look on my face.
She said I did in fact cross the foul line……on the adjacent lane. I did
not realize that was against the rules.
For some reason, when I bowl, I tend to drift to my right. Most all my
fellow league members know this, so when they are bowling against me, they wait
until I clear their lane, before starting their approach. Now, encroaching on their approach is NOT a
violation of the rules or is it a foul.
The rules do say the stepping across the line on an adjacent approach
is.
Rule 5a/3 states: A foul is not called
when a bowler crosses onto an adjoining approach area. However, if the bowler
steps over the foul line on that lane, it is considered a foul.
Starting north again in Hoopeston at the
Fast Lanes. Sunday night mixed was
Geoffery Berlin
with a 268-655 series and Patty Lowe with a 194 game. Helen Taflinger coming in
with a 191 on a 143 average. On Monday it was Karen Porth on a 247 and 598
series followed by Jennifer Crawleys 200 and 585 set.
Last weeks winners of the 7-8-9 pin
tournament were Sue Wagoner and Kenny Samet, Next months tournament will
pay $235.00 to win. Date is Saturday November 8 at 7:00pm
In the MS Nail Salon League, Donna Rayhel bowled a
224. Sandy West had a 154 game and a 400 series,
while Ann Minette picked up a 4-10 split.
At Sycamore Lanes in Covington , action was fast and furious. Let’s
start off with the split conversions first. Dale Benedict 2-7-8, Lea
Arnold 4-9, Bill Shoaf 5-7, Beth Barnes 5-6-10, John
Gebhart 8-9, Darrell Edwards 4-9, and Janet McMasters, the 4-10.
Maybe I should
take some lessons from these bowlers. I might actually learn something. Ron Cates, a 183 average bowler rolled a 559
series, 57 pins over, with games of 240-149, and 170. 159 average bowler, John Gebhart shot a 541
series, with games including 163-215, and 163. With the 215 game he was 56 pins
above average. Gary Edmiston, shot 65
pins over average for a 212. Shooting 86 pins over his average for a 258 game
was Aaron Howard. Cody Jumps was 49 over
with a 191, Bill Shoaf, 45 over with a 213, Jerry Norwell, 47 over, with a 225
game, and Duane Schaeffhold rolling 74 pins above average, with a 214. Wonder if he is related to my stringer, Rose?
In Senior League action, Allen Taylor bowled a 219 game which was 65
pins over his game average. Clara Copsy bowled a 457 series which was 103
pins over her series total. Converting some splits were, Marla Troyer and Ron
Blagg the 5-7, the Barb Walls 4-5 & 5-7, Pam Hunt the
5-6-10, Sue Strong the 7-8-10 and Shirley Lamm
the 4-5.
The Tuesday Nite Go
Getter’s Tracy Smith was 44 pins over with a 202. Sue Strong was 81 pins over
series average, and overlooked by me last week was Deb Miller, 56 pins over
average. Split conversions included Greg Miller
with the 5-7, and 5-6, Jordyn
Castle picked up a very
rarely converted split, the 4-7-6-10, the Big 4.
Reporting for the first time this year, we
have the MeHarry League. Jerome Nelson was 56 pins over his average with a 685
