Women’s Bowling Makes Program Debut; Defeats No. 7 Mount St. Mary’s In Baker Match

February 12, 2021 by Rab's Country Lanes Leave a Comment

Staten Island, NY – The Wagner College women’s bowling team earned the program’s first-ever victory as the Seahawks bowled against fellow Northeast Conference (NEC) member and No. 7 ranked Mount St. Mary’s on Thursday afternoon from Rab’s Country Lanes.
Click here for the full story and to follow the Lady Seahawks Journey

Wagner and Mount St. Mary’s were pitted in a traditional, a Baker, and a best of seven Baker match this afternoon as the Seahawks finished the day 1-2.

Match I – Traditional (Mount St. Mary’s 1006, Wagner 880)

  • The Seahawks and Mountaineers opened up Thursday’s event with a traditional 5 vs. 5 format.
  • Amanda Medvetz led the way for the Seahawks in the opening match, rolling a team-high 219.
  • Anelise Terrano shot a 194 while Totiana Miranda (167), Jessica Fetik (159), and Amanda Burdett (141) rounded out the scoring.
Match II – Bakers (Wagner 965, Mount St. Mary’s 901)
  • Wagner quickly rebounded from the traditional format with a victory in the team’s first-ever baker match, defeating the Mountaineers by 64.
  • The Seahawks won three straight games and four out of five in clinching the bakers, 179-168; 220-181; and 186-169, which secured the five-game baker set.
  • Miranda threw eight strikes in a row in propelling the Seahawks to victory.
Match III – Best-of-Seven Bakers (Mount St. Mary’s 4, Wagner 0)
  • The Mountaineers shrugged off their performance from match two in taking all four games in the best-of-seven Baker format.
Baker Averages:
  • On the heels of her eight strikes, Miranda led Wagner with a 21.7 baker frame average.
  • Medvetz (18.8), Terrano (16.8), Fetik (16.4), and Victoria Shaw (15.0) rounded out the Seahawks’ performance this afternoon.

Post-Match Interview:
Head Coach Joseph Ambrose:

Opening Statement…

  • “It was awesome to lead our team in the first-ever competition here at Wagner. To get our first win today against a top-10 program and a school who is currently first in the NTCA Power Index Ranking, is a tremendous milestone for our athletes and our program,” head coach Joe Ambrose said.”
On the team’s tone and emotions this afternoon…
  • “Our teams works really well together and there wasn’t a hint of hesitation in helping one another today. Their selflessness was instrumental in us having a great first day on the lanes.”
On adjustments made from following the traditional match…
  • “We really didn’t have to adjust too much after the first match. Mount St. Mary’s bowled great. We did make a few lineup adjustments in baker, which worked out very well.”
Closing Statement…
  • “In match three, we couldn’t execute on the changing lanes and will have to do a better job of that on Friday, but, overall, it was a very successful first day in the history of the Wagner bowling program.”

Up Next:

  • Wagner will be back on the lanes Friday afternoon for the first-ever Seahawk Invite, in which the Seahawks will face off against the same Mountaineers and the LIU Sharks.

Lots to Love about Valentine’s Day Public Art Photo Booth Unveiled by Staten Island Economic Development Corporation

February 9, 2021 by Rab's Country Lanes Leave a Comment

SIEDC announces photo contest to put Staten Islanders in the running for $500 Gift Card to Buono Jewelers

Staten Island, N.Y. – Love was in the air on Hylan Boulevard as the Staten Island Economic Development Corporation (SIEDC), in collaboration with NYC Council Member Steven Matteo, Rab’s Country Lanes and Sweetbrook Nursery and Garden Center, unveiled a new public art installation: A fun and festive Valentine’s Day Photo Booth designed to bring the community together while supporting local business.

The Valentine’s-themed, 4’x6’x8′ natural wood booth was hand-crafted by Steve Korkowski, President and CEO of Sweetbrook Nursery & Garden Center. Located outside Rab’s Country Lanes, 1600 Hylan Blvd., the colorful red and pink booth is covered on top and has side panels to provide protection from the elements. It is free to use and open to the public for photos from February 1 to 14.

No significant other? No problem! Staten Islanders can take a photo alone, with a friend, family member or even a pet. All that’s needed is a smartphone and love for Staten Island.

“Our Valentine’s Day Photo Booth is a wonderful opportunity for people to enjoy a safe outdoor experience,” said Cesar J. Claro, President and CEO of the SIEDC. “Together with our partners Council Member Steven Matteo, Sweetbrook Nursery & Garden Center and Rab’s Country Lanes, we are thrilled to provide the community with a creative way to celebrate the season of love. Our hope is that Staten Islanders stop by the booth for a fun photo opp as they explore the many stores and dining spots located nearby.”

As part of the unveiling, the SIEDC announced a photo contest that gives Staten Island shutterbugs a chance to win a $500 gift card for Buono Jewelers. To participate, participants must take a creative photo inside the booth and upload it to Instagram or Facebook, tagging @SIEDC and using #SIEDCVDAY. The SIEDC will pick the winning photo based on creativity and flair, so participants are encouraged to dress to impress and let their personalities shine through.*

Public art is just one way the SIEDC works to improve neighborhood charm and build community throughout the borough. Through Business Improvement Districts and Merchant Associations, the SIEDC advocates for much-needed services including private maintenance and security, signage and way-finding information, and beautification initiatives such as holiday lights, new trash receptacles and much more.

More information about SIEDC public art installations, BIDS and Merchant Associations is available at siedc.org.


*Photo Contest Disclaimer:

Must be 18 years or older to enter. Participants will be judged on most creative photo by the SIEDC Projects Management Team. Any photos received after the assigned dates will not be considered. Winners will be notified through Instagram message. The winner will be chosen at random from all valid entries and announced on or before February 15, 2021 before 11:59pm EST. This promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed, or administered by or associated with Instagram. SIEDC reserves the right to cancel or amend the rules of the contest without giving prior notice or reason.

Lanes 47 and 48 at Rab’s Country Lanes are proving to be quite a pair for female bowlers.

That’s because Melissa Oakes and Kelly Schropp each fired perfect a game on those lanes in consecutive weeks.

“They happened on the same pair of lanes in the same game (the middle game of three)!” said Country proprietor Frank Wilkinson. “Crazy!”

Oakes’ perfect game came Sunday, Dec. 27 in the Donna Zajac Memorial Mixed League. Oakes, who averages 184, fired games of 191, 300 and 168.

Eight days later (Jan. 4, 2021), Schropp, a former St. John Villa High School standout bowler, reached perfection in the Rab’s Scratch Draft League.

One of only nine ladies in the prestigious loop, Schropp fired games of 222, 300 and 247 for a big 769 series. She is currently averaging 210 in the loop.
