TOKYO, Japan – Professional
Bowlers Association Hall of
Famer Amleto Monacelli ended an11-year PBA Tour title drought
and became the 14th player to win
20 PBA Tour titles when he
defeated top qualifier Dom Barrett
of England, 255-233, to win the
DHC PBA Japan Invitational at
Tokyo Port Bowl and collected
$40,000 for the win. Barrett
earned $20,000 for his runner-up
finish.
“Japan has always been a great
atmosphere for me,” the 54-year-
old Monacelli said. “That’s where
my career really got started. It felt
like it was the late 1980s, when I
could do something no one else
could do. A lot of things were dif-
ferent, but I believe it was as good
a performance as I’ve ever had.”
Monacelli, who began his PBA
career in 1982, made 16 television
finals and finished second seven
times before winning his first title
in the 1987 Japan Cup. He went on
to win PBA Player of the Year
honors in 1989 and 1990, and
became the first international
player inducted into the PBA Hall
of Fame in 1997. He is now divid-
ing time between the PBA Tour
and the PBA50 Tour, where he has
won five titles including three
major championships.
His lengthy title slump in PBA
Tour competition, he admits, has
nothing to do with his legendary
physical fitness routine and every-
thing to do with his “stubborn-
ness” in adapting to the changing
competitive environment in pro-
fessional bowling.
“I’ve been looking for a title for
a long time,” he said. “It wasn’t
because I was performing bad, but
over the last three years I’ve got a
lot more knowledge about the
equipment and moving on the
lanes, and that has given me an
advantage along with my physical
shape, which I’ve worked on mywhole life.
“When I was bowling before all
of this new equipment, it was
more about how you performed –
throw the ball harder, throw it
softer, move around, change hand
positions. Now it’s more about
what ball to throw and when to
throw it. You can perform well,
but you have to have the right
equipment, too. In Japan, I had the
right ball at the right time to get a
reaction no one else had.”
Monacelli earned his shot at the
DHC PBA Japan Invitational title
with a 275-221 win over defend-
ing champion Chris Barnes of
Double Oak, Texas, in the semifi-
nal match. Barnes, returning to
PBA competition for the first time
since undergoing surgery in early
October to repair a damaged disc
in his back, started the stepladder
finals with a 227-220 win over
Japan’s Shota Kawazoe followed
by a 232-202 victory over John
Szczerbinski of North Tonawanda,
N.Y.

SHAWNEE, Okla. - One-time
PBA Tour winner Anthony
Pepe of Elmhurst, N.Y., got
his FireLake PBA Tournament
of Champions week off to a
flying start by winning the
PBA Grand Casino, Hotel &
Resort Winter Open regional
at the FireLake Bowling
Center.
Pepe erased a 71-pin deficit
in the final position round
match by defeating 2015 PBA
Xtra Frame Lubbock Open
winner and Rolltech PBA
World Championship runner-
up EJ Tackett of Huntington,
Ind., 278-182. Pepe ended the
match play with a 7-1 record
and 5,159 21-game pinfall total
(including bonus pins) while
Tackett finished second with a
6-2 record and 5,104 pinfall.
“I kind of resigned myself to
finishing second,” said Pepe,
who won his fourth regional
title. “Having a ‘didn’t have
anything to lose’ mentality
probably relaxed me and in
that last match I just started
throwing strikes.”
Pepe, the 2014 PBA Cheetah
Championship winner, and
Tackett, are both part of the
79-player field competing in
the FireLake PBA Tournament
of Champions when qualify-
ing began at the FireLake
Bowling Center.
“It’s a confidence boost,”
Pepe said of his win. “But I
can’t over-analyze it because a
lot can change. One thing is for
sure, I’ll be in good shape
mentally.”

of a 24-year career as a PBA Tour
competitor, when he won five
standard PBA titles, Couture
began his PBA50 career in 1995
when he earned PBA50 Rookie of
the Year honors. He won the first
of nine PBA50 Tour titles in Reno
in 1996, and captured a pair of
USBC Senior Masters titles in
1998 (when he was selected as
PBA50 Player of the Year) and2002.
“If it wasn’t
for the senior
(PBA50) tour I
wouldn’t be
here,” said
Couture. “The
senior tour was a
second chance
and an opportu-
nity to re-inventmyself.
“Bowling on
the senior tour
was like being
with family,” he
added. “Some of my greatest
memories came from bowling on
the Senior Tour. I think everyone
who bowls for a living dreams of
getting in the hall of fame because
there’s no higher honor.”
O’Neale built the PBA South
Region tournament program into
the organization’s most successful
proving ground for aspiring young
players over a span of 31 years
before his retirement in 2011. Aone-time PBA Tour competitor,
O’Neale assumed a regional pro-
gram with fewer than 200 mem-
bers and built it into a membership
of more than 900 members, fre-
quently traveling thousands of
miles while conducting more than
40 weekend tournaments a year.
“In all the years I was with PBA
I had so many great people around
me to make it work and I couldn’t
have done it without them,”
O’Neale said. “It’s been a long
way but a lot of fun. Over theyears I gave a way a lot of awards
but didn’t get
that many
myself, so this
is a great honor
for me.
“I’m very
proud of the
growth we had
in the (PBA’s)
south region,”O’Neale added.
“I wanted the
bowlers in our
part of the coun-
try to be proud
of our region and I knew if they
were they would keep coming
back and bowl in our tourna-
ments.”
Schreiner, who served as the
ESPN television voice of the PBA
between 1986 and 1995, also was
a skilled bowler who joined the
PBA media staff as the PBA Tour
Broadcast Director shortly after
his graduation from the University
of Akron. As PBA’s play-by-play
announcer on ESPN, he quickly
became popular for his ability to
apply his knowledge as a bowler
to the telecasts, working in harmo-
ny with fellow PBA Hall of Famer
Mike Durbin as his color analyst.
“I grabbed the brass ring when I
got the PBA (announcing) job and
never let go,” Schreiner said. “To be involved with all the great peo-
ple who built and worked with
PBA over the years, you can’t
explain in your wildest dreams
what it means to be standing up
here.”
Also, as part of the evening’s
festivities, Jason Belmonte, Jesper
Svensson, Josh Blanchard and Ed
Godbout were officially presented
with the GEICO Chris Schenkel
PBA Player of the Year, Harry
Golden Rookie of the Year, Steve
Nagy Sportsmanship and Tony
Reyes Community Service
Awards, respectively.

WEST HAVERSTRAW, NY –
Front-running Bowler City III
continued its recent surge in the
Stan Niemiec YTL, winning its
fifth straight match, amassing
thirty-one points in that stretch, by
sweeping past Fair Lawn, 2924-
2767. Enjoying a hot hand was St
Joseph junior Nathan Tombo, who
followed up last week’s strong 667
threesome with a better trey, 213-
223-248: 684, the afternoon’s best
triple; lifting his average to justshy of 200, Nathan is anchoring a
squad currently on a tear:
Ridgefield Park sophomore Derek
Lewandowski, [192 avg], posted
215: 584, Bergenfield senior Nick
Reyes, [191 avg], scored 214: 598
and Bergenfield sophomore Peter
Bondy nailed a 213. The leaders
needed those numbers because
Fair Lawn pressed them
admirably: Steve Plaszky 211:
601, Madison Perry 234, Nick
Greco 204 and Jake Nappi 184.
Host Hi-Tor had its hands full in
the faceoff against Bowler City I,
managing to snare four points by
exploding a bevy of deuces:
Brandon Smith 226-234-209: 669,
Nino Sparta 235-200: 617, Nick
Sparta 229 and Johnny Toscano
210-209. Pounding the pin deck
for BC I were Anthony Rizzo 261:
641 and Kyle Schellberg 235. In
Anthony’s odd score, the Passaic
Tech senior fired four strikes out
of the gate, left three pins [a split],missed them entirely, and then
went out the door with seven
strikes. Twelve deliveries, eleven
strikes and an open frame…rarely
happens, you think? In Montvale’s
5-2 victory over Holiday II,
Pascack Valley sophomore Henry
Tipping’s 264 middle game was
similar: five strikes, an open
frame, and off the sheet with a six-
timer [ask “The Hammer” a‘ham-
bone’ plus two!]. Henry also tal-
lied a 210, finishing with a 621
while the aforementioned
“Hammer” aka Joseph Mahoney,
blas ted 236-227: 620; Nick
Fabiano added a 191. Carrying the
offense for Holiday II were Jared
Duncan 231-196: 598, Tom
Chamberlain 224: 594 and Devin
Crowley 213-196.
Northern Highlands senior Allie
Woodhouse swept the pins off
their comfort zone with games of
212-203, Louis Ferrante scored a
214 and Olivia Wank 198 in liftingBowler City II into third place
with a sweep of Boonton. The lat-
ter’s best effort was Adam
Gelvan’s 181 single.
In other play, Holiday I barely
scaled the vacancy mark, earning
five of seven points by taking
game three by seven sticks and the
wood point by ten sticks. Jon
Mormando posted 213-212, Ryan
McGuire 203-196 and David Neil
a pair of 193s.
