Allen and Page Rally for Doubles Gold

Team USA's Patrick Allen of Wesley Chapel, Fla., and Rhino Page of Topeka, Kan., each struck out in the 10th frame to cap an amazing rally and defeat Sweden's Tomas Leandersson and Martin Larsen, 457-452, for the doubles gold medal Saturday at the 2008 World Tenpin Bowling Association Men's World Championships.

Down by 29 pins entering the final frame of the championship match, left-handers Allen and Page - the top seed after posting a six-game total of 2,857 in preliminaries Friday - each capitalized on openings provided by the Swedes. Click to see the rally at bowl.com.
