He said both his parents bowled in leagues at B&amp;J Bowl in Boonville, Mo., owned by family friends.<\/p>\n<p>Mason said he joined an official league at 5 years old, but it wasn&#8217;t until around age 12 that he began competing in more serious tournaments with larger numbers of competitors and more experienced bowlers. Boasting a gold medal at the 2005 Show-Me State Games and various other achievements, Einspahr said he has competed at tournaments throughout Missouri and the Midwest.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of May, he will bowl at nationals for the first time. This tournament will have stringent rules including dress codes, lane courtesy laws and serious weigh-ins for each person&#8217;s ball, Mason said.<\/p>\n<p>Good Luck at Nationals, Mason!<\/p>\n<p>For the full Index article, click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.trumanindex.com\/bowling-with-passion-1.2740351?utm_source=Sailthru&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=Truman_Index_2&amp;utm_campaign=Truman_Index_2_2012112314\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every bowler dreams of 300 \u2014 the score of a perfect game.
