After starting her five-game block at the National Bowling Stadium with 207, Richard recorded games of 229, 235, 290 and 269 to finish with a 1,230 total. Last week's PWBA Greater Cleveland Open champion Stephanie Zavala of Downey, California, is second with 1,188, and Danielle McEwan of Stony Point, New York (1,183), Caitlyn Johnson of Beaumont, Texas (1,151), and Shannon Sellens of Long Beach, New York (1,148), round out the top five. The USBC Queens is the first major championship on the 2021 PWBA Tour schedule, and BowlTV.com is providing wire-to-wire coverage of the event. A ball change at the end of the first game helped Richard find the right look Thursday at the NBS.
