SINGAPORE UNL Senior Pluhowsky Captures 2004 AMF Bowling World Cup
Shannon Pluhowsky
Shannon Pluhowsky, a 22-year-old senior at the University of Nebraska, reclaimed her bowling world-title at the recent 2004 AMF Bowling World Cup held in Singapore. Winner of the same title in 2002, she was defeated in the 2003 World Cup by Kerrie Ryan-Ciach of Canada, whom she then defeated in this years finals to capture the title again.
On her road to the finals, Pluhowsky swept through her quarterfinal, semifinal and championship matches at SuperBowl SAFRA Mount Faber with a 242.0 average, defeating each of her opponents 2 games to 0 in the best-of-three-games knockout format.
She defeated Scotland's Laura Rhoney in the quarters, 223-204 and 231-163, then dropped Liza Del Rosario of the Philippines, 259-226 and 269-169. Ryan-Ciach, who advanced with a 2-0 win over qualifying leader Shalin Zulkifli of Malaysia (201-197, 235-225) and a 2-1 victory over Yoselin Leon of Puerto Rico (279-190, 193-257, 208-193), never mounted much of an offense in the title match. Pluhowsky easily dispatched the defending champion 236-200 and 234-185 to become only the third woman in history to win the World Cup twice. AMF WORLD CUP
