"This was a week where I really just rode my teammates to gold medals," Barnes said. "I was just kind of in the background all week but it feels good to help us come through and complete the sweep." Terrell-Kearney swept Canada's Robin Orlikowski, 2-0, to win the women's gold medal. The finish gave the Team USA women gold medals in four of the six events trios, team, all-events and Masters.

High School Bowling Continues to Grow ARLINGTON, Texas - Bowling continued its growth as a high school sport in the 2008-09 school year, according to the most recent National Federation of State High School Associations participation survey. With more than 51,000 students competing at the 4,857 schools that offered high school bowling during the 2008-09 school year, the sport saw a 2.6 percent increase over the number of competitors from the 2007-08 school year. The participation survey has been compiled since 1971 by the NFHS through numbers it receives from its member associations. "With school districts having to make tough decisions about sports programs because of a tight economy, it is great to see that high school bowling has been able to continue its growth," said United States Bowling Congress Director of Youth Development Brian Graham. "The sport has consistently grown for the last decade and we expect the trend to continue as more states make bowling a varsity sport." High school bowling has seen double-digit growth in five of the last eight seasons and the number of varsity bowlers has more than doubled this decade. This season,

19 states will have high school bowling as a varsity sport and 27 states will offer it on the club level. New Hampshire has made bowling a sanctioned sport for the 2009-10 school year, and Iowa is adding boys' bowling as a varsity sport. "Each year more schools are finding out about the benefits of making bowling a part of their sports curriculum," said USBC High School Manager Breanne Eoff. "It is a sport that is accessible to all students and the costs to start a program are minimal compared to other sports." USBC High School is working to continue the sport's upward trend by providing rules and instructional opportunities. USBC High School also offers a free membership program, which enables coaches to nominate outstanding bowlers to the national Dexter/USBC High School AllAmerican Team, and provides high-score recognition to studentathletes. Coaches also receive resource materials such as the USBC High School Guide. The complete results of the 2008-09 participation survey are available at the NFHS Web site at www.nfhs.org.

Thanksgiving Day has been known as turkey day for centuries. And "turkey" remains the most used term in bowling, as it has been for close to a century. A "turkey" in bowling is three strikes in a row. There is no such designation for any other amount of strikes. They are simply known as doubles, four or five or whatever number timers or baggers. The question I receive most often, and always has been is how “turkey” became such a permanent part of bowling jargon and its origin. In the early days of bowling, and well into the 1940s, most bowling centers conducted special holiday tournaments, prior to Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter. They were usually one or two game events at a modest entry fee, and the prizes were unique, ranging from gold coins to baskets of groceries to hams, chickens, ducks and of course turkeys, and in the early days, you could even pick out your poultry, still alive, at the nearest meat market. In order to increase the number of entries, the tournament promoters put down very difficult lane scoring conditions, and to give the contestants a try at an extra bonus, they

offered a turkey to any bowler who could rack up three strikes in a row. So, whenever a bowler rolled three strikes, the other bowlers or spectators would yell, "That's a turkey." And the term "turkey" for three strikes became standard. Two other famous terms are "Brooklyn" and "Jersey"--still used universally. The 1-3 pocket is the accepted spot for a strike by a right-handed bowler and the 1-2 for lefties. If you score a strike by going to the opposite side it is a crossover. There was great competition between New Jersey and Brooklyn bowlers as far back as the 1890s and in derision of a crossover strike the Brooklyn bowlers called it a Jersey hit and the Garden Staters named it a Brooklyn. Even the earlier term of crossover came about because the headpin was the focal point and cited as the Hudson River, so when a New Jersey bowler scored an errant strike it was described as going across the river, and the same was true of the Brooklyn bowler who hit the wrong pocket. One reader asked what a chicken was in bowling. I never heard it used but would think that maybe it would be a double strike, a success a little less than a turkey. It takes a long time for any term to be established in any sport but once accepted they become a part of the game. And "turkey" has long taken its place. Proof of that is that most automatic scoring machines emphasize three strikes in a row by having a turkey pop up on the scoring screen.

J o a n Ta y l o r ’ s Te n P i n R a p . . . . The subject of a recent e-mail was “Pancoast 300.” Another 300 for Steve? He has well over 50 of them (54 to be exact), so what was the big deal? It was a first 300 at that, and it was for Steve’s son, Andrew, 23. Talk about a gene pool! Andrew is a veteran of the game, having bowled for 17 years. This lefthander started in junior leagues at Circle Lanes, then at Oakwood Lanes. His father coached him, in addition to Jeff Frye and Jeff Petrocorro and “a little bit of everybody.” He bested his previous high of 288, which he shot the Thursday before his perfecto. He was subbing in the Monday Night Triples league and rolled 227-259-300 for a 786. The kicker is that he used an old Track Voodoo ball fitted by Mike Byrne “because it works. I tried using a more aggressive ball, but it hooked too much.” He was more nervous on the tenth and eleventh shots, but by the twelfth he just felt like it was time. He dedicated his big game to “my dad because he wasn’t there to see it.” Andrew bowls in one league but enjoys subbing in three others. His mother, Melanie almost saw perfection herself some years ago when she had the first eleven strikes. But she missed the headpin on the final ball and hit 298. Steve said, “You’re supposed to hit the headpin” and Melanie responded, “Not when your shoes weigh 20 pounds!” Andrew would like to next post an 800 series. He

resides in Hackettstown and is attending Centenary College, studying to be a math teacher. The Morris County Women’s 600 Club Tournament will run its 7th annual Doubles No Tap and 42nd Annual Singles tournament at Sparta Lanes, 43 Theatre Center Drive, Sparta (973-729-6135) on Sunday November 8th. This will be a handicap tournament with A (176 and higher) and B (175 and over) divisions. The singles event will be three games immediately followed by three “no tap” doubles games. At least one member of the doubles team must be a 600 Club member. Entry fee in each event is $26 per person. Deadline for entries is October 31. Entries must be mailed to Carol Chadwick, Tournament Manager, 134 Dartmouth Trail, Hopatcong, NJ 07843-1153 or call 973-398-2198 for more information. Congratulations to Steven Haneveld, 17, who rolled his eighth 800 series. The Coaches’ Corner Bowling Clinic will be held on Sunday, November 1 at 9 a.m. at Madison Plaza Lanes 300 Main Street, Madison. The fee is only $7. Bowlers will be assigned to lanes based on average and skill level. Each will receive one hour of instruction on the lanes with local bowling instructors (two games). A discounted copy of the USBC Coaching Guide will be available. Deadline to enter the clinic is October 29. For addition information, contact Lies’l Apgar at 201650-3708 or email [email protected].
