Johnny Petraglia

Johnny Petraglia has been synonymous with BVL for more than five decades. After serving in the Vietnam War in the U.S. Army, Petraglia returned home to embark on a remarkable professional sports career.

Petraglia became the first player in PBA history to win a national tour or national senior tour title in six different decades. The New Jersey resident is a member of both the PBA and USBC Halls of Fame, however his most impactful legacy is what he has done – and continues to do – for his fellow veterans as a BVL Ambassador. He calls it a simple choice – “how can you not help the people that protect you every day?”
