Richey recovers from wreck, cancer to continue bowling Also, Joyce has a full-time job, working as a data entry clerk at Downstream Casino.
Inducted into the Hall of Fame in May of 1995, Joyce has bowled a high series of 668 and a high game of 275. Her highest average for a season was 181. She carried a 159 average last year and currently has a 152 average, although she’s bowled only four weeks due to the back injury. Next time you’re in Bowl East on a Thursday night, check out the women’s league on the north end of the bowling center. You can’t miss Joyce Richey. She’s the one with the ball high over her head as she approaches the foul line. 300s, near-800s Due to another bout with pneumonia, this column failed to appear last week. So, I’m including some of the previous week’s highlights with the past week’s high scores from Crown Lanes, Bowl East and the Fourth Street Bowl. Rex Millsap and Eric Wilson had 300 games at Bowl East, but there were a couple of near-800 series posted during the last two weeks. Carol Dutton, bowling at the Fourth Street Bowl, just missed with a 791 on games of 246, 267 and 278. Carol missed a six pin on a spare shot in the 10th frame of her third game, costing her the 800. “I just got wobbly kneed,” she lamented. Ed Israel, bowling at Bowl East, had games of 257, 279 and 245 in totaling 781, tops among the men this past week. Chris Misner rolled 779 with games of 278 and 289. Hall of Fame member Bill Dutton had a 299 game at the Fourth Street Bowl, leaving a 10 pin (what else?) on his final ball in the tenth frame. It was Bill’s fifth 299 to go with a dozen perfect games. The top series and game scores: Crown Lanes—Jeff Carter 715, Bryan Cox 710 and Janie Walkenshaw 217-601.
