The real star of Turkey Day was Barri Forkos, Hanover Park, III., senior, the first female to bowl a perfect game in Kansas bowling's 47-year history Thursday in St. Louis. Forkos, captain of the Kansas women's bowling team, said she was pleased with her first perfect game, yet was shocked as well. "It felt really good, but I didn't believe it actually happened to me," said Forkos, who bowled the 300 score in an individual qualifying round for the National Collegiate Match Game Tournaments. Although Forkos was proud of achieving this goal, she said the perfect game did not cross her mind during the 12 frames. the girl I was bowling with." "I wasn't thinking about the perfect game," said Forkos, "I was just trying to get good shots and help However, one of her teammates said she had a feeling that Forkos, whose previous high score was 288, would achieve her first perfect game. "Iknew after the ninth frame that she was going to get a perfect game," said Forkos' teammate Tiffany McBurney, Albany, Ore., junior. "Every ball was consistent and she worked hard and stayed calm the whole time." Forkos could not compete in the next round of the individual tournament because of the team competition. However, she said the team's goals always came before her personal aspirations as a bowler. "I'm proud of the perfect game," said Forkos. "However, I just want us to be competitive and make it to nationals this year." The Kansas women's bowling team, ranked 24th out of 36 collegiate teams, has benefited from the leadership of Forkos, the team's lone senior. "Barri is very good at keeping the team together mentally and she is a very competitive bowler who handles pressure well," McBurney said. Coach Michael Fine said her perfect game was a special feat. "I think she has been a good senior leader," Fine said. "Hopefully, it will give her even more confidence." Forkos said the team was steadily improving, despite members' different approaches to the sport. The men's and women's bowling teams will travel to New Jersey for two tournaments during winter break. The Jayhawks will compete at the Colgate Collegiate Invitational in Maple Shade, N.J., on December 27 and 28, and the South Jersey Winter Classic in Cherry Hill, N.J., on December 29 and 30. "It has been five years since we bowled on the East Coast," said Fine. "It should be fun for us to get back there." — Edited by Kathryn Moore Intramural teams seek key to wins By Aaron Johnson sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter A single-elimination format has many teams on edge and looking for any keys to success. Spectators could smell the sweat and see the hustle when they entered Robinson Gymnasium on opening night of the pre-holiday intramural basketball tournament last night.
