citrus heights, calif. - elysia current of ephrata, pennsylvania, took advantage of
great ball reaction in the stepladder finals and rolled to the title saturday at the
professional women's bowling association storm sacramento open.
current defeated top seed kristina wendell of kingston, new york, 246-194, in the
championship match before a standing-room only crowd at steve cook's fireside lanes.
the pwba storm sacramento open was the first regular-season event on the pwba tour
in more than a dozen years. the pwba tour ceased operations in 2003 and has been
rejuvenated this year thanks to the support from the bowling industry.
"this is really amazing because the pwba tour folded when i graduated high school
and everything i had looked forward to i had to put on hold," current said. "to come
out here and win on the pwba tour is seriously a dream come true."
current entered the stepladder finals as the no. 2 seed and took advantage of her
unbeatable ball reaction in the finals. she knocked off missy parkin of laguna
hills, california, 248-233, before defeating wendell in the championship.
"all i have been working on this week was my mental game because physically i have
been throwing the ball well," current said. "finally, it all started to click
together."
in the opening match of the stepladder finals, parkin defeated rocio restrepo of
louisville, ohio, 216-202.
current earned $12,000 for the title and a spot in the season-ending pwba tour
championship, which will be contested in arlington, texas, in september.
