Unfortunately for her, A squad hasn't bowled yet. if the scoring pace holds up for A like it has for B, she'll probably be in 20th or so at the end of the day.

Well, she finished 11th yesterday, so she's got some pins and some room.

And she's got some serious game.

I found it interesting that Kelly and Liz were 10th and 11th for the block today after 8 games.  Two relatively diverse styles and yet there they both were, with only the 2 pins separating them after 8.

Kelly is in 7th after finishing her block.  If the A block finishes this round at the same level (average) from the previous 3 days she will be going into the last day in 8th or 9th.  I think she has a real shot.

I Think it would be great for the PBA to have a woman make it. She's got game, as does Liz. I wish them both the best!!

I haven't seen Kelly bowl in a few years now. I am quite surprised that she is so much higher than Liz Johnson in the standings as of this moment (6/3/06, 9:00 PM) because of Kelly's huge looping hook. At least she used to throw the ball that way; I don't know if she still does. Her huge hook leaves one open for all kinds of lane surface idiosyncrasies and oil pattern transition problems. Even release and speed consistency is often of little help. So, I have to hand her all kinds of kudos for her having done this well so far. I'd love to see her get an exemption; she's a driven and talented bowling professional and one heck of a nice person.

I also 2nd what Charlest said. I have always liked Kelly Kullick's game (maybe cuz I tend to like to loop the ball too!). I have been used to seeing Kelly loop the ball on T.V., but she is a Pro and I'm sure she can play straighter if needed be. I hope any of the women make the top 10, especially Kelly!

Regards,
Ram

Kelly's the only woman with a chance, (as far as I can see from the standings) and a darned good chance it is.

I don't think I have ever seen her straighten it out (I could have forgotten). I assume somewhere along the line, she saw or will see the extreme advantage in being able to do that. Given what I have seen of her, locally and on TV, that proficiency only needs some coaching and some practice for her to successfully incorporate it into her skill set.

Kelly has been working very hard on her game and I hope it pays off with a good block tomorrow on her toughest pattern, mainly it is pretty tough for her because of her slower ball speed.

Good luck tomorrow

My wife is friends with Kelly so I've had the pleasure of watching Kelly bowl quite a bit. I love watching her bowl.  The main reason she's able to get away with covering boards is that she's soooooo soft at the bottom and clean.  I  would kill for that release.  Because she is so soft and clean at the bottom, her ball doesn't overreact and isn't as sensitive to lane changes as most (like me ) with high rotation.  I like to think of her as a female Pete Weber.  I've seen her hit a few Cheetah like patterns so I hope that she has it in her.  She is such a nice person and would be a great addition to the PBA.

It's hers. Now that she has the exemption, she needs to run with it!!!

Go, Kelly - have a fantastic year!
