2007 Inductees to the Saginaw Bowling Hall of Fame

Terry Ignatowski—A former member of the WPBA, in 1990 she was the first woman to bowl an 800 series, including a 300 game. From 1989-1991, she held 9 of the top 10 women’s bowling records in Saginaw, and had the highest state average in the 1990-1991 season of 219, which was also the 7th highest average in the nation at the time. She has many awards to her name, including Saginaw City Doubles and All Events Champ, and in 1993 placed 5th in the Michigan Queen tournament. She has bowled in many Flint-Saginaw All Star matches and was part of the Fisher Flack team that first broke the 3,000 series barrier. She still continues to score on the lanes, and was a Bowler of the Week in 2004 with an actual series of 762. She always felt that her goals weren’t personal but always about the team. Congratulations on her induction to the Saginaw Bowling Hall of Fame.

Don (Rocky) Leonard—Involved in bowling for more than 50 years, he is an excellent bowler who has held one of the men’s Top Ten averages in Saginaw several times, with a high of 215 in 1997. With two 299 games, numerous 700 series to his credit, including a high of 772 with a 299 game, he is a fierce competitor who placed 4th in the 1974 Michigan State Tournament in Doubles with an actual series of 694, which was a tie for high series of the tournament. In 1986, he won the 700 Club Tournament with a 4 game actual series of 884, and in 1999 had an actual series of 687 in the USBC Doubles National Tournament. As of this year he has bowled in USBC Tournaments for 35 years. Welcome Don to the Saginaw Bowling Hall of Fame.
