CANADIAN SENIORS KITCHENER 2009

Heritage Greens, Kitchener Ontario

GOLD
Elaine Jones(S), Anne Wright, Clarice Fitzpatrick, Manitoba
Lyall Adams(S), Roger Allen, Jim Gear, Alberta

SILVER
Lena Cameron(S), Vivian Conoran,Val Bechard, Nova Scotia
Jack Robar(S), Graham Doyle, Mike Hadley, Nova Scotia

BRONZE
Hellen McCrady(S), Margaret Bruce, Margaret Miller, Alberta
Keith Roney(S), David Calam, Ralph Van Iderstine Saskatchewan

Mon. Aug 31 8:00 PM - The Lyall Adams team settled the final RR standings and retained their gold opportunity with their close 15-13 win over ON'B'. That made Alberta 1st and John Wilson 4th in the final standings. Meanwhile Jack Robar of NS moved back into 2nd place ahead of Keith Roney of Sask. with a win and using the tie breaker system.
Women - By golly the Katherine Smith squad made it to the Play Off threshold but the door closed when Alberta procured the last ticket over ON'B'. These same two teams do it all over again for the Bronze medal to-morrow.
The Gold game features Manitoba with an unbelievable + 167 RR differential against Nova Scotia.
This will be a closer game than the first encounter between the two teams.

Sun. Aug 30 8:30 PM John Wilson, John Ferguson, Murray Taylor will play for a medal, colour to be determined. If they beat Alberta in R9, there is a possibility that On'B', AB, SK and NS could be tied for 1st at the end of the RR. But do note that both Andy Wepruk QC'B' and Brant Fenske MB have been playing their opponents tough of late. If ON'B' do win this game, they have the extra burden to win big since they trail in point differential among the 4 involved teams. A great RR finish to a hotly contested week.
Women - Wow, Manitoba didn't climb into 1st place, they stomped to the top over Nova Scotia. But the women in blue will get another chance to go for gold on Tuesday.
And how about the teams from New Brunswick. Wins have been difficult to achieve this week but both teams won and may have pushed Alberta and Ontario 'A' out of the medal round.
But hold the phone, there is a glimmer for ON'A'
Donna McCallum, Mary Meldrum and Heather Comba will play for Bronze and they do have an opportunity to help Katherine Smith, Heather Pettit, Vi Hirst ON'A' be their opponent. Of course Katherine and team have the main job by defeating QC'A', ON'B' take care of Alberta and 1st place Manitoba finish the job by beating Saskatchewan. It makes for good scoreboard watching.

Sun. Aug 30 Men - If Patt Begg's of NB beats Lyall Adams (AB) in Round 8, there could be 5 teams tied for 1st going into the final round. An important win for John Wilson, John Ferguson, Murray Taylor ON'B' in R7 over 1st place Jack Robar of NS. ON'B' in the run for the roses.
Women - R7 had 'no doubt' games. Both Manitoba and Nova Scotia determined they are the serious pursuers of gold. They will play a warm-up game in R8 and then do it again for real on Saturday. Ontario 'B', Donna McCallum, can play for a medal if they beat QC'A' in R8.
Katherine Smith(S), Heather Pettit, Vi Hirst ON'A' must win in R8 to maintain a slim chance to extend their tournament to the finals.

Sat. Aug 29 Men - Jack Robar's three some from Nova Scotia vaulted over Lyall Adam's Edmonton trio to the top of the standings with a 17-12 win over Adams in Round 6. Four other teams are within 2 points of the leaders with 1 1/2 days to play in the Round Robin.
Women - On the distaff side Lena Cameron, Vivian Conoran and Val Bechard of NS
are alone on top with a two win day. Ontario 'B' followed suit to put Donna McCallum, Mary Meldrum and Heather Comba in the thick of the medal hunt.
The men have a 6 team race while the women are already setting up the final four. Sunday will go a long way in making that picture a lot clearer.

What a field for the 2009 Championships. Many of these players hurried home from British Columbia, did their wash and continued their cross Canada summer tour.

GOLD
WOMEN'S SINGLES
1.Josephine Lee BC'A' Pts 18 W9 L0 21
2.Anne Van Bastelaere BC'B' Pts 14 W7 L 2 18
Full marks for being undefeated. Josephine beat Anne 21-18 in RR. A talented pair.

GOLD
MEN'S SINGLES
2.Vern Greenhill BC'B' Pts 16 W8 L1 21
1.Christie Grahame BC'A' Pts 16 W8 L1 17

BC own the Singles in 09. Kudos. Can't be any closer. Christie smoked Vern 21-9 in RR. The fire will be hotter this time.

GOLD
WOMEN'S PAIRS
1.Clarice Fitzpatrick (S), Shirley Fitzpatrick-Wong MAN Pts 16 W8 L1 14
2.Harriette Pituley (S), Rachel Larson SASK Pts 12 W6 L3 12
Clarice on Gold team 3 yrs in a row (2 F & 1 P).Daughter Shirley same caliber.
National team member Harriett and Rachel won Prs. Gold in 06.
First round , first game it was Manitoba 21-13. That was a long time ago.

GOLD
MEN'S PAIRS
1.Steve Ogden(S), Steve Bezanson NS Pts 16 W 8 L 1 16
2.Ryan Stadnyk(S), Wayne Wright ON'B' Pts 14 W7 L2 13
A dominant performance by Ogden /Bezanson all week (+83) except for the pesky kids. Stadnyk and Wright have been solid in RR,losing by 1 to NB and by 10 to the front runners. It's a 'will show you ' game one way or the other.

GOLD
WOMEN'S FOURS
1.Julie Ford(S), Gayell Slater, Cathy Wieliczko, Patricia Walker AB Pts 12 W6 L1 31
2.Jo Anne Bugler(S), Maureen Thompson,Sharron Farrish, Carol Carter ON'B'
Pts 10 W5 L2 15
Julie Ford and crew only lost once - 13 -16 to their opponent in the final RR game.
An aberration?
Jo Anne Bugler's team won the title in 2007. It is good match up.

GOLD
MEN'S FOURS
1.Stephen Sliman (S), John Devlin, Roger Smith, Mike Doskas QUE Pts 13 W6 T1 L0
16
2.Keith Roney(S), Doug Propp, Ernie Meid, David Calam SASK Pts 12 W6 L1 13
Stephen Sliman's team has been in the driver's seat all week. They edged Sask 20-19 in the RR and there is a wily veteran in car #2. Don't stand too close, this will be a full throttle race.

BRONZE
WOMEN'S SINGLES
3.Jean Roney Sask Pts 10 W5 L4 21
4.Marg Lepere ON'B' Pts 8 W4 L5 8
A former National Team player, Jean won silver in this event last year. A tenacious challenger in Marg who lost to Jean in the RR match 5-21 but will keep trying until they shut off the lights.

BRONZE
MEN'S SINGLES
3.Jeff Harding ON'B' Pts 14 W7 L2 21
4.Glenn Singleton PEI Pts 8 W4 L5 12
Jeff learned the game in New Zealand and has obviously adjusted to the green pace in Canada. Won silver/gold with Mark Sandford in Pairs in 07/08. I have watched Glenn for a long time quietly show up with little practice and with similar fanfare shut his opponents down. Don't disturb the resting Islander. Glenn won the RR match 21-20.

BRONZE
WOMEN'S PAIRS
3.Mary Wright(S), Belle Chan BC'A' Pts 12 W6 L3 11
4.Laila Hassan(S), Chrystal Shephard ON'B' Pts 12 W6 L3 21
Mary and Belle started slowly and then found the cadence and marched up the standings- 5 wins in a row. Laila and Chrystal had their indigestion mid-week. Since then their hearty appetite has returned registering 3 big score wins. RR score On'B' 23-20 in game 2.

BRONZE
MEN'S PAIRS
3.Larry McLellan(S), Jurgen Fessler ON'A' Pts 12 W6 L3 19 W
4.Alex Scott(S), Michael Pituley SASK Pts 12 W6 L3 19
ON'A' beat SASK 23-18. SASK provided NS with their only loss 24-18.
This will be interesting. Now this is an ' oh yes we can, oh no you can't' game.
McLellan/Fessler tied game in last end and won it in the extra end

BRONZE
WOMEN'S FOURS
3.Elaine Jones (S), Anne Wright, Betty Grundy, Betty Van Walleghem MAN
Pts 9 W4 T1 L2 +10 24
4.Kerry O'Reilly(S), Rosale Parsons-Brown, Bonnie Driediger, Norma Cassidy QUE
Pts 7 W3 T1 L3 12
Elaine Jones alone or with others is a winner. I know the Quebec women will be delighted to have skirted around the edge of the pack and join the medal games.
Loose is good.

BRONZE
MEN'S FOURS
3.German Santana(S), Vince Mai, Fred Fong, Geoff Pershick BC
Pts 9 W4 T1 L2 13
4.Bill Falconer(S), Jim Lepere, John Bush, George Lalicich ON'A'
Pts 7 W3 T1 L3 20
Many experienced players involved on both sides in this game.
Win it for George.


Saturday Aug 22 2:30 AM. Very interesting results. The standings are updated and I will add some comments before the medal rounds.

Thurs Aug 20 11:30 PM The tale of Friday to come.
Men's Pairs - O'E This is how you script the final round. We know who will play for the medals but we don't know how they will sort themselves out. Will it be the boys see sawing back and forth in the standings from Ontario, Larry McLellan, Jurgen Fessler or Ryan Stadnyk and Wayne Wright. Perhaps the Nova Scotia duo of Steve Ogden and Steve Bezanson can hang on to first after all or will youth prevail from Sask. Alex Scott(S), Michael Pituley. It is made for TSN.
Women's Pairs - Unbelievable. Clarice and Shirley can sit back and watch the mad scramble.Seven teams, yes 7 including Laila Hassan/ Chrystal Shephard and Helen Culley/ Shirley Ko, are in the running for a medal game. It gives me a headache just thinking about the combinations for success.
Women's Fours - Jo Anne Bugler, Maureen Thompson Sharron Farrish and Carol Carter will play for a medal Staurday. Their choice - beat Alberta in Round 9 and then play them again for gold.
Men's Singles - Decided by the first game of the first round by a 21 -20 score. Even if Gary Laurence of Sask. defeats Vern Greenhill in Round 9 and Jeff Harding defeats Ivan Johannson of Alberta, the tiebreaker is the head to head match in the round robin. It will be an all BC gold medal match and Jeff will play for bronze.
Women's Singles - Josephine Lee will play for gold after beating Jean Roney in Round 8. Her opponent will be decided by the winner of the game between 2nd place Anne Van Bastelaere and 3rd place Roney - simple. Marg Lepere has given herself a chance to make the medal round with a dandy win over Lena Cameron of Nova Scotia in Rd 8 - but she needs help. If fellow Ontario bowler Susan Karlins ( Susan has caught her breath and game after a slow start )beats Cameron and the undefeated Lee beats Valerie Carrier of Quebec and , the hard part, Lepere slows the Rosina Toal 3 game win streak, it's in the bag.
Men's Fours - Quebec and Saskatchewan will play for gold and Bill Falconer, Jim Lepere, John Bush and George Lalicich control their own opportunity for a bronze medal. Beat Nova Scotia in Round 9.

Thurs Aug 20 7:00 AM I am scratching my head this morning. I kept checking until midnight last night for the results from the 4:30 PM EDT games in round 6. Up at 6:30 AM and I am still not able to pick them up.Ah, here we go. The results are up to the end of Round 6.
A clarification of the " relegated' statement below. I have no status in the official scoring, recording or publishing of results. No one is or should be responsible for providing the information personally to me. I only speak as a fan of the sport and publish the results because I know there are many like me who follow the events closely and like to know the scores and standings as soon as possible. Canadian Championships are a marketing tool to be used to keep the members and others informed and interested. My intent is not to compete but to complement publication of entertaining news. And by the way, OLBA President Arja Nesbitt and Herb have been very helpful in directing me to a source for information.

Thurs Aug 20 A big day in deciding if a team competes for a medal or becomes a spectator.
The Pairs event has special significance to-day. Number one it is a jammed full of challengers event in both the women's and men's sides. Helen Culley and Shirley Ko won 2 yesterday including a thrashing of Alberta and to-day it is a giant meeting day in that they play against front running Manitoba and 2nd place BC 'B'. Laila Hassan and Chyrstal Shephard have it 'easier' but do need a pair of wins to get back into the fray after losing a pair yesterday.
Ryan Stadnyk and Wayne Wright have a go at the top running, undefeated Steve Ogden/ Steve Bezanson this PM after playing a competitive Quebec team in the morning. It will be interesting to see how the youth of Alex Scott and Michael Pituley of Sask do aginst NS in the AM.
Larry McLellan and Jurgen Fessler should hold serve to-day.
An important game for Jo Anne Bugler's group against Kerry O'Reilly this AM if they want to try and overtake Alberta and Manitoba and play for gold. Then they have to face Debbie Foster , a former National Team member, in the PM when Manitoba are trying to narrow the gap of the leading Alberta team.
Jeff Harding is in the hunt and needs to push beyond Terry O'Neil of NS in the PM after an AM game with Quebec. Dave Houtby can get 2 but watch out for Glenn Singleton. I remember Glenn from way back and he obviously still can play this game of Singles.
Roger Thompson and crew take on the undefeated Quebec team this morning while Bill Falconer's group have to be the winner against Manitoba to maintain medal possibilities.
The big match in the women's Singles will be 1st place Josephine Lee of BC vs Sask.'s Jean Roney in the afternoon.

Wed Aug 19 7:00 AM Perhaps it is my lack of computer search ability that is causing my dilemma but I'm missing the opportunity to be a keen fan and a part of the Championships. Instead I have been relegated to tuning in to the late night show for highlights.
We are coming to the half way point of the competition and the trends are developing.
SINGLES - Ontario had their turn and now it is the head to head matches for the BC players.
Women - I watched Josephine Lee at National camp and bowled against Anne Van Bastelaere in Arizona. Both are cool and talented draw bowlers and they are undefeated. The Jean Roney against Quebec's Valerie Carrier will be revealing. I don't know Valerie so I am interested to know if she is a true contender. I do know Jean. An experienced elite bowler who intends to move from a 2008 silver singles medal to the next level. Marg starting to move, Susan a tough start.
Men - It's a ONBC sandwich. The four are squeezed to-gether at the top of the standings. The BC-BC clash might loosen the package and Jeff and Dave need to keep the others at bay.
PAIRS - Women - A strong field here. Might be a must win for Helen Culley in her game against Alberta's Chris Adams and Laila Hassan needs to create some breathing room by beating another experienced former National Team player Alice Duncalf.
Men - The Ontario teams played a thriller , Ryan Stadnyk 16-15 over Larry McLellan. Ryan needed it more than Larry based on the standings but both must keep winning to maintain a chance to catch the Steve Ogden team from NS.
FOURS - Pauline Hill in a must win situation against the first place Alberta team to-day. An important win by Jo Anne Bugler over Elaine Jones yesterday. A sign they will take their annual run for the roses.
MEN - The big match here this morning is Sask/Quebec - Roney vs Sliman, both undefeated.
Bill Falconer can't lose to teams below in the standings. Alberta is the foe in the AM.
Roger Thompson gets his chance to make a mark in his match vs Sask in the PM.

Mon Aug 17 You can't be any closer than a one shot difference in your game. Ontario won 2 and lost 4 to start the 09 event as the two biggest bowling provinces clashed in the opening round. The tone is set.
