Tucson bowler joins elite company by winning PWBA Lexington Open

Tucson athlete of the week: Tucsonan Bryanna Caldwell Coté won the PWBA Lexington Open last month, part of the Professional Women’s Bowlers Association tour. The 2004 Canyon del Oro High School grad won the finals with a 228 score. The event will be televised by CBS Sports Network Tuesday at 5 p.m., Tucson time. Coté thus becomes the third Tucsonan ever to win a pro bowler’s tour championship: Pete Tountas won the PBA event in 1964, 1966 and 1968, and Catalina High School grad and PBA Hall of Famer Paul Colwell won nine championships, most in the 1970s.
