WHAT IS BVL AND WHY SHOULD WE SUPPORT IT?
It was fitting to celebrate Independence Day last week, and talk about
a special organization tying bowling with our military veterans. With
respect to Sundays Morris County Senior BVL Fundraiser Tournament
conceived and directed by county and state Hall of Famer Carol
Chadwick, I got to thinking: What is BVL and why is it one of those
best-kept secrets?
Every year the county womens tournament features containers on
years ago, someone answered for the veterans. Did we send money
somewhere? Did we send funds to Brunswick to set up portable lanes
overseas? Was it only for military veterans who could bowl?
I went to the BVL home page and found so many great things this
organization does. For starters, the non-profit BVL has been around for
75 years, having started in 1942. As the timing coincided with World
War II, the organization was called the Bowlers Victory Legion, and
among its early activities, they held an annual BVL tournament open to
the 31 VA hospitals (7 of them entered). It was mainly designed to bring
this recreation therapy to veterans.
To date, there is an annual BVL tournament each spring and hundreds
of veterans from VA Hospitals as well as Vet Centers compete in a vari-
ety of divisions, including wheelchair, visually impaired, and seniors.
BVL also provides grants to individual VA hospitals for the purchase of
a range of materials from sports equipment to art supplies, books, and
musical instruments. There is much more information on their website
www.bowlforveterans.org and it is heartwarming to read about it.
I had occasion to speak with one of the most famous spokesmen for
BVL, Vietnam Vet and PBA Champion and Hall of Famer Johnny
Petraglia over the weekend. He said that the organization has a new
Executive Director, Mary Harrar who is a real go-getter. Usually dur-
ing Bowl Expo we have a breakfast and recognize organizations that
have donated the most to BVL during the year. This year it was decided
to have one keynote speaker (me) and it went over well. In fact, I was
told that more than $30,000 (including $10,000 from one proprietor)
was raised during Expo after I spoke. He wasnt bragging, but he was
surely proud.
And so, July 9, we Seniors and Super Seniors took to Rockaway Lanes
at 3 oclock for Carol Chadwicks tournament. Its nice to have an event
of our own on a local level, and whether we bowl well or not, old
friends reunite and new friendships made. Aside from all the fun and
fundraising (there are drawings as well as pins-over-average options),
Heres a little secret. Johnny P and his employer Brunswick Bowling
donated two new DV8 bowling balls to the event (he signed the boxes
as well as 2 photographs) and you didnt have to be entered in the tour-
nament to buy chances for these and the other items.
Editors note:
The John LaSpina and his family with their Maple Family Bowling
Centers have donated more than $50,000 to the BVL. They also host the
Johnny Petraglia PBA50 BVLOpen at one of their centers every year.
Growing up, John LaSpina and Johnny Petraglia spent many hours
bowling together at Maple Lanes and formed a deep friendship and
today, LaSpina is the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the sport of
bowlings own, oldest and most successful charity Bowlers to

OPEN CHAMPIONSHIPS UPDATE
Two bowlers roll perfect at 2017 USBC Open Championships
Butch Cormier of Lafayette, Louisiana, and Edward VanDaniker Jr. of Chatsworth,
California, added their names to the short list of bowlers who have achieved perfection at
the 2017 United States Bowling Congress Open Championships, rolling the ninth and 10th
perfect games of the event.
Las Vegas has hosted some of the highlights of Cormier's 27-year USBC Open
Championships career, and he now can add a 300 at the South Point Bowling Plaza to that
list.
The 46-year-old right-hander finished his singles set June 27 with 12 consecutive strikes
on the way to a 778 series, which is sixth in Regular Singles. He started with games of 210
and 268. Ron Jacobson of Jupiter, Florida, leads Regular Singles with 804.
The last time the Open Championships visited Las Vegas (2009), it was held at the near-
by Cashman Center, where Cormier made his first run at perfection on the championship
lanes. He started his final game of doubles with 10 consecutive strikes, before leaving a 4
pin and finishing with 289.
While Cormier was striking in doubles that year, so were his teammates, Brenda and
Stephen Padilla of Mansfield, Texas. The Padillas went on to post a record doubles total
(1,566) that day at Cashman Center, and it ended up being enough to claim the 2009 Regular
Doubles title.
Brenda Padilla's success continued in singles, where she rolled her own perfect game and
capped off the highest all-events total by a woman at the Open Championships, a 2,132
effort.
The communication and teamwork that went into that performance hasn't changed for the
group, and it was a key component in Cormier's success at the Bowling Plaza.
"It was a great team effort," said Cormier, who added sets of 585 in doubles and 538 in
team for a 1,901 all-events total. "We broke them down the right way and stayed together
as a team. If they changed, we made the moves together and really communicated well. I
was the lucky one to match up the final few games, but it could have happened to any of
us."
Two former members of Cormier's group, Todd Minotti of Oviedo, Florida, and Stephen
Sutphin of Howey in the Hills, Florida, also made headlines at the Open Championships.
Minotti is one of 29 bowlers in tournament history with multiple 300 games on the tour-
nament lanes (1997 and 1999), while Sutphin rolled the first 800 series of the 2011 event at
the National Bowling Stadium in Reno, Nevada (827).
VanDaniker, a former Team USA member, started his singles event July 1 with 12 strikes
and added games of 203 and 258 for a 761 series, which is 19th this year in Regular Singles.
The 31-year-old right-hander had 642 in team and 527 in doubles for a 1,930 all-events
effort this year at the Bowling Plaza.
There also were four perfect games this week at the 2017 Bowlers Journal Championships
presented by USBC as Perry Crowell IV of Chesterfield, Michigan, Brazil's Marcelo Suartz,
Kyle King of Glendale, Arizona, and Timothy Heimann of St. Peters, Missouri, all shot 300
at the South Point Bowling Center.
By the end of the Open Championships, more than 10,000 teams will have hit the lanes
for the 2017 edition at the South Point Bowling Plaza.

WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIPS UPDATE
Arizona bowler reaches 50 years
at USBC Womens Championships
Lorie Perry of Tucson, Arizona, celebrated a milestone appearance in one of her
favorite United States Bowling Congress Women's Championships host cities as she
became the latest bowler to join the tournament's 50-Year Club.
The 86-year-old began her tournament career at the 1962 event in Phoenix, and she
received a plaque, chevron and necklace June 26 to commemorate her longevity on
the championship lanes.
Perry, a retired Air Force first sergeant, has traveled to 36 cities and 26 states
throughout her tournament career, often driving to the event.
Having the 2017 event held in Red Stick made for a special return for Perry
because that's where she rolled the highest series of her USBC Women's
Championships career, a 626 series during team at the 1993 event. The 1993 edition
of the tournament was held at Metro Bowl and Don Carter's All-Star Lanes.
As Perry accepted her awards at the Raising Cane's River Center, she encouraged
all the bowlers in attendance to persevere toward those goals, too.
I can't believe I made it this far, because I missed several tournaments because of
being active duty in the Air Force, said Perry, a member of the Tucson Womens
Bowling Association Hall of Fame. I hope all of you can one day stand up here like
I am, and you can. Just keep doing it, coming to bowl the tournament.
Florida pair ties Emerald Doubles lead
at Raising Canes River Center
Longtime USBC Women's Championships doubles partners Holly Davis and
Teresa Bazley of Jacksonville, Florida, put that experience to use as they were able
to secure a share of the Emerald Doubles lead at the 2017 event.
Davis and Bazley, each making her 11th Women's Championships appearance,
used games of 337, 399 and 362 at the Raising Cane's River Center for a 1,098 total
June 28, matching the effort posted by Betty Jean Davis of Herbert, Illinois, and
Wendy Mann of South Elgin, Illinois.
Davis led the pair with games of 207, 206 and 199 for a 612 series, and Bazley
added games of 130, 193 and 163 for a 486 set.
Emerald Doubles features teams with combined entering averages of 320-349.
A look ahead
Lillie Mae Holman of Bloomfield, New Jersey, is scheduled to be the ninth and
final competitor of the 2017 USBC Womens Championships to celebrate 50 years
on the championship lanes, making her milestone appearance July 6.
Holman, 83, began her tournament career at the 1967 event in Rochester, New
York, and she has made her annual appearance each year since 1969.
The 2017 Womens Championships kicked concluded July 10.
