Rookie Schaub Leading Pepsi Red White and Blue Open

Rookie Cassidy Schaub of Polk, Ohio, slowed his record scoring pace, but retained his lead as the
top 24 qualifiers in the Pepsi Red, White and Blue Open presented by the United States Bowling
Congress (USBC) headed into match play Thursday night at Northrock Lanes.

Schaub finished the qualifying portion of the Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour event with a 24-game
total of 5,991 pins – shy of the PBA 24-game record of 6,109 by Pete Weber in Las Vegas in
1996– but held onto a 25-pin lead over Patrick Allen of Wesley Chapel, FL, after eight games
Thursday morning on the USBC’s Blue lane conditioning pattern.

Mike Scroggins of Amarillo, Texas, who momentarily took the lead after rolling one of the event’s
19 perfect games, sat in third place with 5,957 pins. Billy Oatman of Chicago was fourth with a
5,952 total and Brad Angelo of Lockport, N.Y., was fifth at 5,926 pins.

The Pepsi Red, White and Blue Open presented by the USBC is being conducted on three
different lane conditioning patterns the USBC plans to introduce on an optional basis to American
league bowlers in cooperation with the Bowling Proprietors’ Association of America (BPAA) for
the 2010-11 winter league season. Similar in concept to golf’s tee system, the USBC Red condition
is the most forgiving pattern, the White condition is a medium challenge and the Blue pattern is
the most challenging.

The top 24 will bowl three eight-game rounds of round-robin match play on the Red, White and Blue
patterns, respectively, Thursday night and Friday. The top six will then advance to the championship
round which will be taped Sunday to air on ESPN on Sunday, Jan. 10.

It took a 236.38 average on the three lane conditioning patterns to advance to match play. With six
more 300 games on the Blue pattern Thursday morning, the tournament total is now 19. The PBA 
record for most 300s in a single tournament is 24, set in Peoria, Ill., in 1995.

A New Break Out from 900 Global

The Break Out is the newest Break series introduction, 900 Global announced a December 21st, release date.

900 Global describes it’s new offering as ”clean through the front of the lane, with an angular motion at the break point. The versatile S70 coverstock allows the Break Out to handle a wide variety of lane conditions.”

The Blue/Purple “S70” cover is finished at 4000 Abralon. The asymmetric “Break” core generates a Radius of Gyration (RG) of 2.489 and RG Differential of .058 in a 15# ball.

Second Round of The Pepsi Red, White and Blue Championships

Rookie Cassidy Schaub of Ashland, Ohio, set a Professional Bowlers Association
(PBA) 16-game scoring record Wednesday, averaging 257.25 to retain the second
round lead in the Pepsi Red, White and Blue Open presented by the United
States Bowling Congress at Northrock Lanes.

Schaub, a two-handed bowler who throws the ball from the left side of his body, 
posted a 16-game total of 4,116 pins to erase the PBA record of 4,095 set by 
John Mazza in Las Vegas in 1996. Despite his torrid scoring pace, he maintained 
only a modest 70-pin lead over Michael Machuga of Erie, PA, who recorded a 
2,103 round on the USBC White lane condition Wednesday for a 4,046 total.

Billy Oatman of Chicago was third with 3,994 pins followed by Wayne Garber of 
Modesto, Calif., with a 3,988 total and Mike Scroggins of Amarillo, Texas, with 
3,984 pins.

“To throw that many strikes in one day is a pretty good feeling,” Schaub beamed. 
“I honestly thought I’d never top yesterday – and score-wise I didn’t – but 
throwing my first PBA 300 and backing it up with another is a feeling I can’t 
describe.”

Schaub, who is seeking his first Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour title, is on top of 
the world after a miserable debut in the five-week, seven-tournament PBA World 
Series of Bowling in late summer where his highest finish was 35th place.

“After Detroit, I questioned whether I should even be out here,” he said. “In 
Detroit, if I had bowled a 190, I would have backed it up with a 170 because I 
would have been mad. Today, I shot 192 (his only sub-200 game of the
tournament) and backed it up with a 300, and then another 300, so just taking
things one shot at a time is something I’ve learned and I’m still learning."

“I’ve never had back-to-back 300s in practice or anything,” he laughed. “I’ve 
never, ever thrown that many strikes in a row.”

Schaub said the USBC White lane condition “played a little tighter at the start, 
but once a spot developed, the lanes played pretty much like they did yesterday. 
The right side developed a cliff again, because there are so many more 
right-handers in the tournament. There were little differences, but nothing 
drastic.”

“I chased (Schaub) all day, but I just couldn’t reel him in,” said Machuga, a 
two-time PBA Tour winner who bowled on a pair of lanes next to Schaub all day. 
“I’ve only had one other block of games in my life where I threw the ball as 
well as I did today.”

The Pepsi Red, White and Blue Open presented by the USBC is being
conducted on three different lane conditioning patterns the USBC plans to
introduce on an optional basis to American league bowlers in cooperation with
the Bowling Proprietors’ Association of America for the 2010-11 winter league
season. Similar in concept to golf’s tee system, the USBC Red condition is the
most forgiving pattern, the White condition is a medium challenge and the Blue 
pattern is the most challenging.

The top 39 after Wednesday’s second round advance to a third eight-game 
qualifying round on the Blue pattern Thursday morning. The top 24 players after 
24 games will advance to three eight-game, round-robin match play rounds on the 
Red, White and Blue patterns, respectively, Thursday and Friday. The top six 
will then advance to the championship round which will be taped Sunday to air on 
ESPN on Sunday, Jan. 10.

It took a 235 average to make the cut to Wednesday’s third qualifying round. 
Among those who advanced were Liz Johnson of Cheektowaga, NY, with a 3,799 
total good for a tie for 29th, and two of the four PBA World Championship 
finalists who will bowl for that title Sunday at 1 p.m. Eastern, live on ESPN. 
Rhino Page of Wesley Chapel, Fla., and Wes Malott of Pflugerville, Texas, 
qualified 34th and 39th respectively, both by rolling 279 in their final games.

Johnson also had one of the 13 perfect games bowled thus far. The PBA record
for most 300 games in a single tournament is 24, set in Peoria, Ill., in 1995.

Among those who didn’t advance was three-time Professional Golfers Association 
titlist Woody Austin of nearby Derby, KS, who finished 118th in the field of 
119 with a 188 average.

“My nine-year-old son (Peyton) told me before the round, ‘Dad, you’re dead 
last.’ I didn’t want to disappoint him. I bowled better today,” Austin said. “At 
least I had four games over 200. But I just can’t get enough revolutions on the 
ball to compete with these guys. I was leaving 10 pins all day long.”

PBA Pepsi Red White and Blue Open

Cassidy Schaub, a two-handed bowler who throws the ball from the left side, averaged 258.7 Tuesday
to take the first round lead in the Lumber Liquidators PBA Pepsi Red, White and Blue Open at
Northrock Lanes, in Wichita, KS.

Schaub, a 26-year-old first-year Professional Bowlers Association member from Polk, Ohio, finished
the first eight qualifying games on the United States Bowling Congress’ “Red” lane conditioning
pattern, with a total of  2,070 pins and a 27-pin lead over 15-time PBA Tour titlist Jason Couch of
Clermont, FL. Couch had 2,043 pins.

Parker Bohn III of Jackson, NJ, was third with a 2,019 total followed by Chicago’s Billy Oatman at
2,012 and Ryan Ciminelli of Cheektowaga, NY, with a 1,991 total.

Schaub is the lesser-known of the PBA’s touring two-handed players. Australia’s Jason Belmonte, who
used his unique two-handed delivery from the right side to win a PBA Tour title last season, remained
home in Australia this week, awaiting the birth of his first child. That left Schaub to deliver the 
two-handed message and the two-time Team USA member did it in style, easily conquering the first
of three “test” lane oiling patterns being used in the tournament.

“It’s always fun to strike,” Schaub said. “I caught a couple of breaks, but all in all, I threw the ball
pretty good. But it’s only eight games. I won a sprint in a marathon.”

It was still a relief after a miserable professional debut in the PBA’s inaugural World Series of Bowling
in Detroit in August. In his five-week, seven-event PBA debut, Schaub’s best finish was 35th place.

“That was pretty bad,” he confessed. “I learned you have to take shots one at a time. I beat myself
up after every shot I threw in Detroit. Later in the World Series, I talked with Rhino Page and Patrick
Allen (two of the PBA’s premier left-handers). They told me some things about my physical game I
needed to work on. I went home and worked on what they suggested, and I came in here with a 
different attitude and a different mental game.”

Couch, who is trying for his first title in more than two years, was philosophical about his performance.

“Everyone knew the scoring conditions were going to be easier than what we’re used to,” he said.
“Some guys like it, some guys don’t, but I like this pace for once a year. I get a lot of questions
about lane conditions when I go home. I think an event like this answers a lot of questions league
bowlers have about the differences between league and professional bowling conditions.

“I came in with a good game plan,” Couch added. “I knew what balls I wanted to use during the
transition and it worked well for me. I had a plan and I stuck with it.”

The Pepsi Red, White and Blue Open, presented by the USBC, is being conducted on three “test”
lane conditioning patterns the USBC plans to introduce to American league bowlers for the 2010-11
winter league season. The Red condition is the most forgiving pattern, with White condition a medium
challenge and the Blue pattern the most challenging. The varying degrees of difficulty is intended to
help bowlers who would like to advance to the PBA Experience Sport Bowling program, USBC’s
most challenging scoring environment, where they will learn more about the sport and how to improve
their skills.

All bowlers in Wichita will bowl eight more qualifying games Wednesday with the top 39 advancing to
a third eight-game qualifying round on the Blue pattern Thursday morning. The top 24 players after
24 games will advance to three eight-game, round-robin match play rounds on the Red, White and
Blue patterns, respectively, Thursday and Friday. The top six will then advance to the championship
round which will be taped Sunday to air on ESPN on Sunday, Jan. 10.

Two Bowlers Receive PBA Tour Deferments

Baltimore’s Danny Wiseman has been granted a deferment for the 2009-10 PBA
Tour season by PBA Commissioner and CEO Fred Schreyer. Wiseman’s mother has
taken ill and will require long-term care.

As the Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour resumes action today with the opening
round of the Pepsi Red, White and Blue Open presented by the United States
Bowling Congress (USBC) at Northrock Lanes in Wichita, Kan., another
well-known name will be missing from the field. Schreyer also has granted a
deferment to veteran Dave Arnold of Dublin, CA. The 45-year-old Arnold, who had
regained an exemption through the 2008 Regional Players Invitational (RPI) 
after a seven-year absence from the Tour, suffered a stress fracture in his lower
back the day after the Motor City Open in Detroit.

The deferments mean two additional spots will be available at most exempt Tour
events for the balance of the season. Both players remain eligible to bowl in
“open” events if they are able to do so.

The PBA Red, White and Blue Open

This is a unique Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) competition, open to amateurs as well as
professionals, which will be contested for the first time ever on USBC-approved “red, white and blue”
lane conditions patterns which will be introduced to the USBC league bowling population on an
optional basis for the 2010-11 season. The “red, white and blue” designations indicate increasing 
degrees of scoring challenge. The “red” pattern is intended to be the most forgiving, the “white”
pattern more challenging and the “blue” pattern the most difficult.

All bowlers in the Red, White and Blue Open will bowl eight qualifying games on the “red” pattern on
Tuesday, Dec. 8, and the “white” pattern on Wednesday, Dec. 9. The top one-third of the field will
bowl another eight games on the “blue” pattern Thursday morning. The top 24 after 24 games will
then advance to head-to-head match play where all 24 will bowl another eight games on each of the
patterns Thursday night and Friday.

After 48 games, the top six bowlers will advance to a modified television final which will be conducted
following the “live” ESPN coverage of the PBA World Championship at noon (Central) Sunday. The 
Red,White and Blue Open finals will be taped for telecast on ESPN on Sunday, Jan. 10, at noon
Central.
