GUADALAJARA, Mexico - Liz Johnson
of Cheektowaga, N.Y., won the women's
singles giving Team USA three gold
medals in four events in bowling at the
2011 Pan American Games.
Johnson defeated Jennifer Park of
Canada, 2-0, to earn the gold at Bolerama
Tapatio. Chris Barnes of Double Oak,
Texas, took the silver medal in men's sin-
gles, falling in the championship match 2-
0 to Santiago Mejia of Colombia.
"Anytime you win three out of four gold
medals you can't say anything but that it
was successful," Team USA head coach
Rod Ross said. "We had a shot at getting all
four, but Colombia bowled extremely well
and deserved to earn the gold."
Johnson had little trouble in the gold-
medal match, taking down Park 232-196 and 235-190 in the
best-of-three format."It was a tough battle but it feels great to come out on top,"
Johnson said. "There were some great players in this field.
Physically I felt really good, and I used a few tricks in my bag
to do what I had to do to strike."
Barnes, meanwhile, was never able to get on track in his
match against Mejia, losing 189-171 and 205-193.
"Of course it is disappointing not to win the gold, but I just
didn't perform very well," Barnes said.
"The left lane was tricky, and I wasn't able
to put any pressure on him. He bowled
very well and kept all the pressure on me."
In the semifinals, Barnes advanced with
a 2-1 victory over Manuel Fernandez of the
Dominican Republic, while Mejia defeat-
ed Marcelo Suartz of Brazil, 2-1. Johnson
knocked off Karen Marcano of Venezuela,
2-0, and Park defeated Canadian teammate
Caroline Lagrange, 2-1. The semifinal los-
ers shared the bronze medal.
Team USA's Bill O'Neill of
Southampton, Pa., lost in the quarterfinals
to Mejia, 711-589 in the three games, total
pinfall match. Kelly Kulick of Union, N.J.,
fell in the opening round to Brazil's
Stephanie Martins, 630-587.
The United States started the Pan American Games by
sweeping the men's and women's doubles gold medals. Sincebowling became a medal sport in 1991, Team USA has earned
20 of a possible 28 gold medals in bowling at the Pan American
Games.
Held every four years, the Pan American Games are the sec-
ond-largest multi-sport event after the Olympic Games. This
year, nearly 6,000 athletes from the American Zone are com-
peting in 36 sports.
