Dave Beres of Waukesha, WI, averaged 235.6 on the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA)’s
Cheetah lane condition pattern Tuesday to take the early lead in the Sands Regency Regional
Players Invitational at the National Bowling Stadium.
Beres, who qualified for the event in the PBA Midwest Region, held a 24-pin lead over Bobby Hall II
of Landover, MD, David Anthony of Austin, TX, was in third place with 1,367 pins.
“The high end (of the Stadium) definitely seemed to hook a little bit more off the gutter,” Beres said.
“Once we made the flip to the low end, you couldn’t get the ball back to the pocket like you could on
the high end, so I moved everything in about three or four boards on the low end and kept everything
straight.
“I feel pretty good going into tomorrow if that’s the way the lanes are going to play,” he added. “I
shot 120-over for the last three games. I was joking with (fellow PBA Midwest competitor) Jeff
Richgels, it wouldn’t surprise me if the low end was conditioned with the Viper pattern, so I’m
comfortable going into tomorrow with that reaction I had today.”
The complete field will bowl six-game rounds on the PBA Viper and Chameleon lane conditioning
patterns Wednesday, and two additional six-game rounds on the Scorpion and Shark patterns
Thursday. The tournament standings will be based on 30 games, actual pinfall.
The PBA Regional Players Invitational is open only to players who finished among the top 25 in
competition points in their respective regions. In addition to a $7,500 first prize and a berth in the
2010 PBA Tournament of Champions for the winner, the seven players also are competing for PBA
Tour Exemptions for the 2010-11 season.
