Randy Pedersen put together a PBA Hall of Fame career that featured 13 wins, including one major championship.

The right-hander broke into the win column in 1986 when he defeated four opponents to claim the title at the AC-Delco Classic in Union City, California.

A pair of wins the following year would include his lone major championship, the 1987 PBA National Championship in Toledo, Ohio. Pedersen would defeat three future hall of famers in David Ozio, Marshall Holman and, in the title match, Amleto Monacelli, to earn the victory.

Pedersen won the PBA Senior/Touring Pro Doubles Championship title with the legendary Carmen Salvino in 1988 and followed that up with his best year in terms of number of wins when he collected three titles in 1989.

He won one title each in 1990, 1993, 1994, 1995 and 1999, with his last tour title coming at the 2002 PBA Pepsi Open in Springfield, Pennsylvania. He added a PBA50 Tour title in 2013.

A three-time Bowlers Journal First Team All-American, Pedersen was ranked 35th on the list of the 50 Greatest Players in PBA history in 2008 and was inducted into the PBA Hall of Fame in 2011.
