Parker Bohn III‘s victory in the PBA50 Dave Small’s Championship Lanes Classic Tuesday in Anderson, Ind., put an exclamation mark on what has been a great year for the entire family.

Parker Bohn III with wife Leslie and children Brandon, Sydney and Justin (l-r).

Bohn’s fourth PBA50 Tour victory, and first in two years, came on the heels of some other family triumphs, including:

  • Wife Leslie Beamish Bohn receiving USBC’s Volunteer of the Year Award in April in Las Vegas;
  • Son Justin Bohn winning the boys’ “junior varsity” title for bowlers 15 and younger in the Teen Masters Championships in Mechanicsville, Va.
  • Son Brandon Bohn winning the USBC Junior Gold U12 boys’ title in Cleveland, Ohio, where Justin finished in a tie for seventh in the U15 boys’ division while daughter Sydney Bohn, in only her second year in bowling, finished 38th in a field of 124 in the U12 girls’ division.

The PBA50 Tour wraps up its 2017 season live on Xtra Frame next week with first-ball-to-last coverage of the DeHayes Insurance Group Championship presented by Pro Bowl West and Ebonite Sunday through Tuesday.

The DeHayes event will finalize the PBA50 Rookie and Player of the Year races as well as decide the top eight point-earners for the season who will compete in the PBA50 during GEICO PBA World Series of Bowling IX, presented by Reno Eldorado Properties on Nov. 7 in Reno, Nev.

The PBA60 Dick Weber Championship for players 60 and older Aug. 10-12 at Pro Bowl West will wrap up PBA senior competition for the year. It also will be covered in its entirety by Xtra Frame.

This week’s highlight is coverage of the U.S. Women’s Open from Plano Super Bowl. Xtra Frame will provide live coverage of all match play rounds leading up to the live CBS Sports Network coverage of the stepladder finals on Sunday, Aug. 6, at noon EDT.

Then Xtra Frame shifts back to PBA Tour coverage of the final three events in the PBA Xtra Frame Storm Cup series.

Start-to-finish coverage will include the Xtra Frame Chesapeake Open from AMF Western Branch in Chesapeake, Va., Aug. 12-13; the Xtra Frame Gene Carter’s Pro Shop Classic from Mid-County Bowling and Entertainment in Middletown, Del., Aug. 19-20, and the series finale, the Xtra Frame Kenn-Feld Group Classic from Pla-Mor Lanes in Coldwater, Ohio, Aug. 26-27.

At stake at the close of the Storm Cup series is shares of $50,000 in bonus prize money for the top five players in points, including $20,000 to the winner.
