Here is our 20th weekly honor roll for the 2024-25 fall-winter bowling season.
We will attempt to stay caught up on milestone series and 300 games shot during the 2024-25 winter season.
During the 2023-24 season, we had 73 recorded 800 series in the five-county-area that were reported to us.
In addition, we will attempt to supply special recognition to bowlers who shot 300 games or women who recorded 700 series during the season. Below this list are forms that can be downloaded and either emailed to us at snierw@gmail.com or sent via text to 330-280-7504 once they are completed.
We are depending on the bowlers to supply this information so that we may recognize their accomplishments.
Here then is our 20th weekly list of 2024-25:

300 PROFILES
CHARLES SPENCER: The 64-year-old North Canton right-hander had his second career 300 game, and first since bowling as a junior player, in the Hosner Carpet Senior Trio league at Park Centre. Using a 900 Global Zen, Spencer had 300 in Game 1 of his 698 series. He has a high career series of 789 and works part-time on the desk at Park Centre. “I’ll remember that 12th shot. I got it a bit wide,” Spencer said. “The reaction from the rest of guys when it carried was priceless. It had been 17,216 days (Dec. 30, 1977_ since I threw my first 300 in the Junior Holiday Tournament, but the local ABC rejected it. So this is my first sanctioned 300.”
