Dale Traber of Cedarburg, Wisconsin, has been named the August 2011 Kegel Bowler of the Month by the Bowling Writers Association of America.
Traber won the USBC Senior Masters (pictured) defeating Walter Ray Williams, Jr., Ocala, Florida, 707-695 in the three-game total pins championship match, earning the $14,000 first place prize. Traber was undefeated in the winners bracket of double-elimination match play.
