Bulletin Board/Notes and upcoming events
Updated: August 21, 2010, 12:14 AM
Attention all bowlers!
The Buffalo News will continue to run daily reports of local league and tournament bowling scores in its daily editions and on its Web site, but there has been one important adjustment to our policy for the 2009-10 season.
This season we will require that all scores be reported either by e-mail to sports@buffnews.com or by fax at 849-4587 and not by phone. We have found that this has worked for many leagues and establishments. Generally, scores should get to us before 10:30 p. m. to be published in the first edition of the next day’s paper. Late scores will be published in the subsequent editions but we encourage reporting information as early as possible.
Again, we will take male series of 675 or higher and single game scores of 250 or better with a limit of five per league. For female scores, the minimum standards will be 600 series and 225 single games with a limit of five per league (10 overall for a mixed league). All scores must be accompanied by name of the attesting league secretary (if reported by an individual league) or by a lanes employee (if reported by host establishment).
A listing of 300 games will be published each Saturday and will be included in the daily area bowling report on the scoreboard page.
The Amherst Soccer Association named Brendan Murphy as director of coaching. Murphy is goalkeepers coach for Niagara University’s men’s team and also works with the New York State West Olympic Development Program’s 1994 (year of birth) team.
Murphy is a product of the Amherst Soccer Association and has coached in the organization the past six years. He was the starting goalkeeper for St. Lawrence’s undefeated 1999 team that captured the Division III national championship and holds Saints records for career winning percentage by a starting goalkeeper, shutouts in a season and lowest goals-against average for a career.
Wil Robinson of Grand Island, a West Virginia University basketball star in the 1960s, will be inducted into the Fayette County Sports Hall of Fame, Uniontown, Pa., on July 18.

There will be $1,200 in cash prizes awarded to seven runners (top four overall male and female runners and top three male and female master runners). Pre-registration is $17 (adults) and $13 (children 14 and under), while the race-day fee is $ 20 (adults) and $15 (children 14 and under). Walkers will use a separate course and receive a participation ribbon. The registration fee is the same for walkers. Participants receive two hot dogs, fruits, snacks and beverages at the post-race party while family and friends can attend the party for a $5 fee.
