Answer
Hello Tony, As a former league president, and to my knowledge, there is no such thing.

As rare as it is to see the big four get converted, it is not documented on any of the USBC Awards forms. The award forms for adult and youth accomplishments have check boxes next to the award discription. Special pin conversions or pick ups are not a part of the awards questionnaire.

Here is a link to the USBC Awards page so you can browse the many areas the USBC will issue special awards for individual and team achievements - http://www.bowl.com/awards/index.jsp

Congratulations on accomplishing and seeing the conversion. Most bowlers will turn away, figuring they may not have a chance at it, and then boom, the last pins will fall and they miss it ... "outstanding pick up!" Great way to save a frame!

Take care, enjoy your memories of bowling!
