Have to share this... From the Staten Island Advance (9/14/09)...
Frank Wilkinson bowled four games over 200 -- including a day-high 234 in the finals -- to capture the inaugural SIUBC Masters Championship Tournament Sunday at Rab's Country Lanes.
The 22-year-old finished 12th after Saturday's six games of qualifying, but was all business yesterday in the scratch, double-elimination finals bowled on modified USBC Open Championship Tournament lane conditions.
Wilkinson defeated Lou Gaudio Jr. 223-168 in the first round before squeaking out a 177-173 triumph in the second round. He then recorded a 218-157 win in the fourth round over Lonnie Levy and a 208-167 victory over Sean McAuliffe in the sixth round.
The righty then captured the title with a 234-180 performance over McAuliffe.
