KETTERING, Ohio (AP) — Hall of Famer Johnny Petraglia became the first player in Professional Bowlers Association history to win a national or senior tour title in six decades, beating Ron Mohr 220-204 on Thursday night in the PBA Senior Dayton Classic.

The 65-year-old Petraglia, from Jackson, N.J., ended a three-year victory drought with his eighth career senior tour title. He won the first of his 14 PBA national tour titles in 1966 in Fort Smith, Ark., at the age of 19. Dick Weber also has won PBA titles in six decades, but his mark includes a PBA regional title.
