Story By: TOM COUGHLIN / NEW YORK STATE STOCK CAR ASSOCIATION – AMSTERDAM, NY – Instead of race cars speeding around the tracks, there were pins flying when the New York State Stock Car Association held their first bowling event of the 2017-2018 off season at Kelly’s Imperial Bowling Center in Amsterdam, N.Y.. A total of 65 drivers, mechanic’s, media, family, and fans participated.

Along with many more watching and cheering from the side lines. Members of the winning team were Jeremy Burns, Sean Prendergast, Heather Felden, Josh Weaver, and Tim McFarland. Finishing second was the team of Jeremy McGaffin, Jann McGaffin, Ron Szczerba, Charlie Ruggeri, and Bill McGaffin, and the final podium spot went to the team of Nick Ramsey, Joey Ernst, Garrick Wager, T.J. Garland, and Chris Charron.

N.Y.S.S.C.A. president Tom Coughlin stated “I am pleased with the turn out here today”, he continued “You never know with any event how well the end result will be. December is a tough month with holiday shopping and school concerts, but this is great to see, so many come out to support our injured member benefit fund.
