Rick Graham Wins PBA50 King Pin
Lanes Open for Fifth Career Title
PBA photo
Craig Vogel (proprietor) with Rick Graham
By Russ Mills - PBA
ROME, N.Y. – Rick Graham of Lancaster, Pa., the reigning East Region
PBA50 Player of the Year, compiled a 3-5 match play record and a 15-
game total of 3,524 pins to win the PBA50 King Pin Lanes Open at King
Pin Lanes.
While Graham only managed to win three of his eight matches, his 228
average helped propel him to a 101-pin victory over Ryan Shafer of
Horseheads, N.Y. For Graham, the trip to King Pin Lanes brought back
fond memories because King Pin Lanes was the site of his first PBA
regional win, in 2010.
The win was Graham’s fifth in PBA Regional competition and earned
him $1,500. Shafer earned $750 as the runner-up.

Continued from Page 1
Additional unforced errors in the final two frames - a
missed 3-6 combination in the ninth frame and a
missed 10 pin in the 10th frame - gave Olsson a chance
to win with a final-frame double.
Olsson struck on her first shot for her first double of
the match, but she left a 9 pin on her second offering.
Converting the spare left the game in a 181 tie and
forced a series of one-ball roll-offs to determine who'd
have the early advantage.
Both players left single pins on their first shots and
struck on their second. Hulsenberg finally ended things
with a strike on her third shot. Olsson left a 2 pin to fall
behind, 1-0.
Olsson was dominant in Game 2, striking on seven
of her first eight shots, while Hulsenberg missed a pair
of single pins on the way to a 243-193 loss.
"I quickly had to put away my disgust from having
two opens to almost give her the first game and change
my mindset for the roll-off," Hulsenberg said. "It was
a great roll-off, and I was fortunate. Overall, the whole
match was great. She bowled well, played multiple
parts of the lanes and changed balls. She made it very
tough."
Hulsenberg said it took her some time to get com-
fortable in the Masters medal round, which started
with a three-game match against her Senior Team USA
teammate Sharon Powers.
After each won a game, the finale came down to the
final frame, where Hulsenberg delivered a strike and a
nine-count for a 212-209 victory. Powers won the first
game 197-191, and Hulsenberg took the second game,
186-179.
"I didn't have the best feel in the semifinal, so I never
got comfortable, but I was able to try some things and
find something that worked, and I was fortunate to
advance," Hulsenberg said. "Then, the adrenaline
kicked in. Your nerves get going, and your hands get
clammy, and you have to remind yourself to relax.
When that happens, the spare shooting is the first thing
to go. I get quick with my feet and yank it through."
Hulsenberg finished the week with gold medals in
doubles, team, all-events and Masters. She did not
make the medal round in singles, which also was moti-
vating in itself.
The doubles win with Tish Johnson was redemption
from a runner-up finish at the 2017 World Senior
Championships in Munich, the team title with
Johnson, Powers and Lucy Sandelin was a complete
team effort and the second consecutive all-events gold
medal was a nice bonus.
All four Masters semifinals and both finals went the
maximum three games.
In the other women's semifinal, Olsson defeated
Germany's Martina Beckel, 2-1 (234-184, 203-211,
213-191).
In the men's championship match at the South Point
Bowling Plaza, Sweden's Tomas Leandersson stepped
up needing a mark in his final frame to defeat Finland's
October 9 - 15, 2019
Mika Koivuniemi, and the Swede struck to claim the
gold medal.
Leandersson won two consecutive games by scores
of 224-209 and 200-194 after dropping the opener,
204-156.
To earn his shot at the gold medal, Leandersson had
to outlast four-time World Senior Championships par-
ticipant Ron Mohr of the United States (238-224, 226-
242, 221-204).
Koivuniemi, the all-events silver medalist, defeated
teammate Kimmo Lehtonen in the other semifinal
(201-209, 278-190, 226-211).
Mohr, Lehtonen, Powers and Beckel each received
bronze medals for their Masters finishes.
"I'm really tired, but very pleased with our week,"
Mohr said. "We got the team gold, which is what we
set out to do, and today was a nice way to end the
event. I worked really hard to even get to the medal
round and went up against one of the best bowlers in
the world. I made it three rounds, which is great. I'm
happy overall with two golds and a bronze, and I don't
think I could've asked for much more than that."
The Masters event included the top 24 finishers in
the all-events standings, based on their 18-game pinfall
totals. All players this week bowled qualifying games
in singles, doubles and team (six games each).
The top eight in the all-events standings each
received a first-round bye, and the No. 9-24 qualifiers
were seeded into a traditional bracket. The eight lead-
ers were added to the mix starting in Step 2. All match-
es featured a best-of-three format.
The 2019 World Senior Championships began with
nearly 260 competitors from 41 countries, who bowled
for medals in singles, doubles, team, all-events and
Masters competition.
To be eligible, bowlers must be 50 years of age or
older during the year of the event.
The 41 countries represented this week in Las Vegas
were Argentina, Australia, Austria, Bahamas, Belarus,
Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Colombia, Costa Rica,
Czech Republic, Dominican Republic, England,
Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Israel,
Italy, Japan, Malta, Mexico, Mongolia, Netherlands,
New Zealand, Norway, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Russia,
Saudi Arabia, Scotland, South Africa, Spain, Sweden,
Thailand, United States, Ukraine, Venezuela and
Wales.
The United States topped the medal table this week
with 11 medals, including seven golds, and was fol-
lowed by Sweden (eight), Germany (five), Finland
(four), Australia and Norway (three), Canada (two)
and Malta and Japan (one).
Lennie Boresch Jr. was the top performer for the
Senior Team USA men with gold medals in singles,
doubles (with Mohr) and team, along with a bronze
medal in all-events. Johnson added a singles bronze
medal to the women's haul.
