Thoughts on your big<br />
night? <strong>The</strong> rack came down<br />
on the ball I was using in<br />
the third frame of the first<br />
game, damaged it and I had to<br />
change balls. So I pulled out<br />
the Blue Ultra Zone, made a<br />
small adjustment to the right<br />
and stayed there all night.<br />
<strong>The</strong> lanes were perfect for me.<br />
When I got done all I could<br />
think about was that it took me<br />
20 years to do it.<br />
What ball did you throw?<br />
Brunswick Blue Ultra Zone,<br />
I have thrown all of my<br />
honor scores with Zone balls. I<br />
bought this ball off the internet<br />
because it’s not made anymore.<br />
Who drills your balls? I got<br />

What is your all-time favorite<br />
bowling ball? It would be the<br />
Brunswick Black Ice.<br />
What is your all-time high<br />
average? 221 last year.<br />
How long have you been<br />
bowling? I started when I was 8<br />
yrs-old, my dad got me started.<br />
I bowled until I was about 24<br />
then quit for about four years.<br />
I am now back and averaging<br />
about 215-220. My cousin is<br />
Ernest Harwell III and has over<br />
80 sanctioned 300 games. He<br />
used to be my main coach and<br />
taught how to properly throw<br />
the ball.<br />
Most memorable bowling moment?<br />
It has to be this series.<br />
When I realized I had the 800<br />
in the 9th frame I had to take<br />
a moment just to let it sink in.<br />
I have had lots of close calls<br />
and to finally shoot 800 was<br />
wonderful.<br />
What lessons has the<br />
game taught you? I would say<br />
patience. As a younger kid<br />
I would get angry, but as I<br />
have gotten older I understand<br />
that being patient and staying<br />
focused works best.<br />
Wanda Parker<br />
This week’s high female is<br />
Wanda Parker who shot 236-<br />
246-280 for a 762 series in the<br />
Tuesday High Rollers league<br />
at AMF Showplace Garland<br />
Lanes. Wanda says she has a<br />
new breath of life with bowling<br />
and still loves the sport.<br />
Where were you born?<br />
Toledo, OH where they used<br />
to have a tour stop. I moved to<br />
Texas in 1990. Graduated from<br />
College, and moved to Texas.<br />
We have much better weather<br />
here.<br />
What ball did you throw?<br />
<strong>The</strong> Storm IQ Tour. I can’t put<br />
it down, I have been throwing<br />
it everywhere since October.<br />
It’s a very versatile ball.<br />
Thoughts on the big series? I<br />
got some new equipment. I’ve<br />
changed up my arsenal and<br />
found some balls that are more<br />
conducive to my game. I moved<br />
away from Storm equipment a<br />
few years ago, but my teammate<br />
convinced me to get that<br />
ball.<br />
What is your all-time<br />
favorite movie? Major League it<br />
is a classic sports movie. I also<br />
like <strong>The</strong> Program.<br />
What is your favorite<br />
restaurant? McDonalds, how<br />
scary is that!<br />
Where did you take your best<br />
vacation? LA. I got to go to the<br />
Staples and the old Forum. We<br />
didn’t get to go to a game but<br />
got to hangout outside, it was<br />
playoff season.<br />
What is your favorite song<br />
of all time? Anita Baker is my<br />
favorite musician.<br />
What’s the best advice you’ve<br />
ever received? Anything worth<br />
having is worth the work. That<br />
is something I have always<br />
heard from the adults I grew<br />
up around.<br />
If you were the commissioner<br />
of all things bowling for a day<br />
what would you change? <strong>The</strong><br />
format of the US Open. I would<br />
like to make it more fair for<br />
amateurs. We need to limit the<br />
number of balls you can use.<br />
THE BOWLING NEWS | Thursday, <strong>Jan</strong>uary <strong>17</strong>, 2013 | Page 3<br />
You should only be able to use<br />
the balls that you checked in<br />
on the first day. It would level<br />
the playing field a little bit.<br />
Favorite hobby besides bowling?<br />
Just listening to music,<br />
all different kinds. I have XM<br />
radio and just like to listen<br />
to everything. And of course<br />
