Kim St.Pierre of North Adams became the first female in Mt. Greylock Bowl's history to roll a 300 game Wednesday night. "It has always been my dream to have a 300 game." St.Pierre said, who's goal in life was once to turn pro. "I never thought it would happen." Why would she, given the odds of any bowler to have a 300 game are amazing by themselves, never mind by a female, where there has been only one 300 game rolled by a female in the county ever! That is, before Kim did it Wednesday. "After the first eight strikes I was a wreck," but you'd never know that by asking others that were there. They all saw a woman who was quite calm and poised and made it look easy, stating every shot was "right there" and that her 12th shot looked as comfortable as her first shot.
Kim's average ending last year was a 182. Her best series before tonight was a 662 and her highest game was a 266, which she rolled this year, causing her average to rise to an already high 195. With her games tonight of 178,300,220 this 698 series brings her average up to a 201 for the year. Not bad for someone who has been bowling since she was just five years old. We at Northadams.com Congratulate you Kim! Your perseverance paid off.
