NEW CENTURY CLUB MEMBER
By Al Myers
An updated record list is now available on the website. It’s been a few months with several comps so there has been alot of additions. I want to thank Scottish Johnny for his help in getting this list updated. He’s been my assistant lately with the record list and his help has been much appreciated.
The BIG NEWS this time is the addition of a new CENTURY CLUB member. Longtime USAWA member Jeff Ciavattone made the list – with a now standing 103 USAWA Records. Big congrats to Jeff on this. Jeff has records going back to his teenage years in the USAWA so this is an accomplishment he has worked long and hard at.
The Womens Century Club has been unchanged, with RJ still at the top with 292 records. Denny Habecker continues to build his lead in the Mens Century Club with 622 USAWA Records. The biggest record mover this time around is LaVerne Myers, who added 18 records to his listing. LaVerne now stands in 10th place overall, passing Bob Hirsh.
I really hate to see people fall out of the Century Club. But that will happen if some of your records get broken and you haven’t been setting new ones to offset it. This time Dave Glasgow slipped out of the club listing and is setting at 98 records. I will have to encourage Dave to get back after it and set some new records so he can get back in the century club!!
Now who’s going to be next in the Century Club? I predicted Jeff was going to make it several months ago, so I’m pretty confident in my ability to make this prediction. So here it goes – I predict Aidan Habecker will be the first teenager to make it. I also am going to put my money on Scottish Johnny. He has been tearing up the records this past year and is moving up his count faster than most realize. I predict both will be the Century Club by the end of the year. So guys – don’t let me down!!
