Sands Regency Regional Players Invitational Day 2

Bobby Hall II of Landover, Md., jumped one spot to grab the lead after two rounds of the Sands 
Regency PBA Regional Players Invitational at the National Bowling Stadium Wednesday.

Hall, who trailed Dave Beres of Waukesha, WI, by 24 pins after the first six games on the
Professional Bowlers Association (PBA)’s Cheetah lane conditioning pattern, finished the six
-game Viper round Wednesday afternoon with a 12-game total of 2,790 pins – a 232.5 average – and
a 46-pin lead over Jeff Zaffino of Warren, Pa. Kurt Gengelbach of Carrollton, Texas, was third with a
2,711 total.

“Actually the Viper isn’t one of my favorite patterns because I’ve always done bad on it,” Hall said.
“Last year I shot 150 (pins) under (a 200 average) on the Viper, so there is something to be said
about learning from past mistakes.”

Like the majority of the players in the field, Hall has his eye on a Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour
exemption for the 2010-11 season. That prize will go to up to seven players who finish among the
top 16.

“What would that would mean to me is I’d be able to shut a lot of people up that thought I couldn’t
do it,” Hall said.

The complete field will bowl three more six-game rounds on the PBA Chameleon, Scorpion and
Shark patterns, respectively, Wednesday night and 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.
