Published November 23, 2008 12:36 am - Three perfect games highlight week Three perfect games and several big 700 series highlight this week’s performances at the city’s pin-pounding centers.
Bobby Bearden, Zevin Betts and Dennis Selbe authored the 300 games at Bowl East. It was at least the second for Betts this season and the first for Selbe. Bearden’s perfecto was believed to be the second of his career. Selbe rolled his 300 in the Tuesday Night’s Men’s Merchants League and was a long time coming. Dennis, who had a 209 average going into last week’s league competition, started bowling some 44 years ago at age six. Dennis, a pitcher, was a member of Missouri Southern’s NAIA national runner-up baseball team in 1978. There were no fewer than 25 700-plus series recorded during the week, two of them by two of the outstanding women bowlers in the city. Carol Dutton, bowling at Fourth Street Bowl, posted a 709 with a high line of 269. Candy Brown, competing in the Hilltop Rollers League on Thursday night at Bowl East, had games of 266, 201 and 255 for a 722 series, her first 700-plus set of the season. Chuck Horner, who cranks out big series on a regular basis, topped the charts last week with a 790 on games of 279, 247 and 264 at Bowl East. David Fort had the high series at Fourth Street Bowl with a 766 that included a 278 game. Brenton Cox led the way at Crown Lanes with a 703 and high line of 257.

Reno to host 2011 Open The United States Bowling Congress, in a press release this week, announced that it has reached an agreement to bring the 2011 USBC Open Championships to the National Bowling Stadium in Reno, Nev. The 2011 Open was originally scheduled to be held in Osceola County, Fla., in a new 100-lane facility in the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex on land made available by Walt Disney World. Funding for that project has been delayed, jeopardizing the timeline for completion.
