Fagan Keeps His Lead at One A Day Dick Weber Open

Mike Fagan of Patchogue, NY, maintained his lead in the Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) One A
Day Dick Weber
Open Thursday after the first eight-game match play round.

Despite a 3-5 record, Fagan had a 5,297 23-game overall pinfall to hold a 23-pin lead over Hall of Famer
Walter Ray Williams Jr. in second. Williams is the PBA
Tour's all-time win leader with 46 Lumber
Liquidators
PBA Tour titles.


“At some point in a tournament like this everyone is going to have times when they are struggling,” said
Fagan. “The lanes were tough in match play but
probably not as tough as it was for the other guys. I have
some adjustments to
make to gain a little more confidence for tomorrow.

“I still feel good but the important thing now is not to get ahead of myself.”

Fagan, who finished second in last season’s Dick Weber Open as a result of losing in the championship
match to PBA Hall of Famer and defending champion
Norm Duke 278-168, is hoping for his first individual
Tour title. His lone win
came in the 2007-08 season in the PBA Exempt Doubles Classic with partner
Danny
Wiseman.

Among other notables in the top 24 are 2005-06 PBA Player of the Year Tommy Jones in third with
5,235, followed by last season’s Dick Weber Open fourth
place finisher Ryan Shafer in fourth with 5,204.

Three other PBA Hall of Famers are also in the top 24; Amleto Monacelli in fifth with 5,178, Pete Weber in
sixth with 5,132, and Duke in 13th with 5,022.


Competition continues today with two more eight-game rounds of match play. The top five bowlers after
match play advance to the stepladder finals that will
be televised Sunday by ESPN2 at 1 p.m. Eastern
(10 a.m. Pacific).
