| A native of Olympia Fields, Illinois, Edwards has dedicated more than 20 years to the sport of bowling. The USBC Coaching Gold-level coach served two stints as a Team USA assistant coach – 1991-96 and 2000-03 – and was head coach of Junior Team USA in 2002 and 2003. Edwards spent five years on the Ladies Professional Bowlers Tour, winning the 1990 Greater Atlanta Open, and was a 1988 Women’s International Bowling Congress Championship Tournament team champion. She competed collegiately at Penn State University, where she earned a degree in marketing, and helped lead Rich Central High School to the 1980 Illinois state championship. She replaced longtime friend and Team USA head coach Fred Borden, who retired in 2003. From the Borden/Edwards School of Bowling at Stonehedge Place in Akron, Ohio, to co-hosting the “Bowling Rocks” and “Learn the Curve” instructional videos designed for kids and adults, the duo has been at the coaching forefront for years. ### |
