We considered stories that not only had an impact for 2015 but also stories that will have an impact for the sport moving forward. Here’s a look at our top stories for 2015 in chronological order: PBA Hall of Fame Journalist Chuck Pezzano Dies Chuck Pezzano, a charter member of the PBA Hall of Fame and recognized as the dean of bowling journalists, died at age 86 on Jan. 14. Born in Paterson, N.J., in 1929, Pezzano started his writing career with the Paterson Morning Call in 1952 and continued writing for The Record in Bergen County until his death. He contributed to more than 100 publications round the world and authored or co-authored more than a dozen books about bowling. Pezzano was the first collegiate bowler to bowl an 800 series, but one of his proudest accomplishments was joining sons Charles Jr., Craig, Curt and Clay as the first father and four sons to bowl 300 games. Australia’s Jason Belmonte Adds to PBA Major Titles Legacy Ryan Ciminelli Jumps into 2015 PBA Player of the Year Race Australia’s Jason Belmonte became the first bowler in the 64-year history of the USBC Masters to win the event three consecutive times, defeating collegiate bowler AJ Johnson Top qualifier Ryan Ciminelli of Cheektowaga, N.Y., captured his first major title in the of Oswego, Ill., 202-157, in February at The Ashwaubenon Bowling Alley in Green Bay, Bowlmor AMF U.S.

  • Danny Wiseman Superior Performance
    Danny Wiseman Superior Performance Danny Wiseman was born in Baltimore on September 24, 1967 to Dorothy H. Wiseman- Potter and the late Albert P. Wiseman Jr. He has one sister, Catherine A. Wiseman. Danny graduated from Dundalk Senior High School in 1985. As a child Danny was an avid baseball player, with bowling being a close second. Danny started bowling at age 5 occasionally going with his father and sister to Fairlanes Eastpoint to bowl duckpins. By 6 years old tenpins had become the bowling game of choice and at 7 he was averaging 119. Many nights were spent at home bowling in the basement with his dad using plastic pins and tennis balls. Dad would set them up and I would knock them down every night recalls Danny. Saturdays were quite hectic with bowling in the morning and baseball in the afternoon. “I was always late for baseball practice” says Danny, but the coach tolerated it because I could throw a fastball for strikes at 50+ mph at age 9 and was also a good third baseman. As a kid there were many trips from his house on Berkshire Road through the Burger King parking lot and then running across Merritt Blvd. with 4 - 8 bowling balls to Fairlanes Dundalk to practice every day. That was back before 3 ball rollers. “A luggage cart with straps worked” says Danny. Little did he realize that some 20 years later, 50+ balls loaded into his SUV would be the norm. Eventually bowling took precedence over baseball and at the age of 15 in January 1983 at Fairlanes Dundalk, Danny became the youngest bowler in the Maryland AJBC to bowl a 300 game and 750 series.

V-10, December, 1975 45¢ ~ x x x x **************************************** Eight Old-Timer Teams To Be Added! First the I'badll news. The Strat-O-Matic Game Co. won't be putting out six Old-Timer baseball teams from the period 1920-1939. Now the good news. Instead, it will be putting out eight Old-Timer teams From that period! Because the recent poll conducted in the Review showed a heavy concentrat- ion of votes for two New York Yankee teams (1921 and 1936) and because, after the first three teams, the voting was extremely close, S-O-M creator Harold Richman has decided on eight teams instead of the planned six. When the Review editors last talked with the game company, Richman was researching the eight teams and prepar.ing Fielding and running ratings. The newest set of Old-Timer teams will be available when the 1976 baseball cards come out in the early spring. Now, which eight teams will be added to the growing list of Old-Timer card sets already available? Here are the eight that the readers picked via the poll and the percentage (out of 90 votes) that each received: 1. 1934 Detroit Tigers - 72.2%. 2. 1927 Pittsburgh Pirates - 55.6%. 5. (tie) 1936 New York Yankees, 3. 1929 Chicago Cubs - 53.3% 40%. 4. 1921 New York Yankees - 42.2%.
