\u201cThis is called the ‘Brunswick Alert,’ it has a smoother ball reaction. It\u2019s going to give an idea of how the lanes are going to play,” said Ferraro as she showed off one of her many bowling balls. “I can tell if I do something wrong with my footwork, arm or my hand, that it\u2019s going to be a bad shot. It\u2019s supposed to be the same way every time.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ferraro is a professional\u00a0bowler with the\u00a0Professional Women’s Bowling Association.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Deltona native has been around the bowling alley her entire life.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI was two when I started,” said Ferraro. “I feel like I\u2019m home. It\u2019s always been another home for me growing up in the bowling alley. My parents bowled four, five nights a week. So, I was always in the bowling alley, always wanting to bowl.\u201d<\/p>\n

“I didn\u2019t know what I was thinking, I was just focused on making good shots,” said Ferraro as she described staying in the moment. “I was just trying to keep my mind off the fact that this is a possibility.”<\/p>\n
Her perfection landed her at spot in the PWBA Regional tournament where she finished as the runner-up.\u00a0<\/p>\n
“It makes me feel like this is the right path that I’m taking, and I definitely need to stay with bowling, because there was a time where I didn\u2019t know if I wanted to bowl anymore,” said Ferraro.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat was the year it happened, and maybe three weeks after coming back is when I did it,” said Ferraro. “So, it was like, \u2018This is something I need to keep on doing.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
