Long Island Summer Bowling Tour!

Double Clutch! Zambito Displays Toughness! |
East Islip, NY - August 9, 2002
question: last bowler up. would YOU rather Need the double in the 10th frame to win the game or would you have your OPPONENT needing the double to win the game? see below for answer.
and that is the exact situation sal zambito, shirley and Ralph marino, holbrook, put themself in this past friday night at east islip lanes on the A2Z Summer Bowling Tour. it really didnt matter much at all last friday that zambito finished 41 pins ahead of the field in the qualifying round or that he had opened the evening with a 270 scratch. it didnt matter either that he led from start to finish. what dID matter was that if zambito wanted to defeat marino and win the adult handicap division, he was going to need to throw two strikes (courtesy of Marino) on lane 15 in the tenth frame of the championship game. on his first ball in the 10th, zambito flushed the pocket and all 10 pins went to the back pit. his second shot raised the anxiety of everyone involved. the right handed zambito slightly pulled the shot to his left. at the 30 foot mark, the ball looked destined to the face, therefore, tournament over, marino wins. however, at east islip lanes, sometimes pulling the shot isnt a "bad" thing. zambito's shot hit just enough oil that the ball entered the 1-3 pocket at the right angle and he carried all 10 pins for his second strike. zambito needed to fill just 5 pins on his last shot, which he did, and he won the match 218-213. call it what you want, sudden victory to zambito or sudden death to marino. at that point in time, it really didnt matter. zambito won. marino finished second. however..... ponder this.... did both bowlers get what they wished for while entering the 10th frame?

Guess we will never know. We never bothered to ask! (Ahhh....the suspense!)

Korner...........
Several times this summer, there have been family members participating in the final rounds. Kathy and Mike Wodzinski, Vinny and Sal Zambito and this week, add Jerry and Jerry Figliuolo Jr to the mix. There has not been any All Family Championships, however, you can just feel it coming..... Funny moments can certainly be found at bowling tournaments. However, nothing strikes (no pun of course) me more than a bowler, who is averaging 235 for the night, having just missed a spare and muttering out loud "I STINK"!..... Yes, I admit it, Poppa Z will be attending SUMMERSLAM in two weeks at the Nassau Coliseum with my son. Go ahead...kick me..... Poppa Z! :o) Any tidbits or other news, email A2ZBOWLING @ aol.com or click here! |
