Gary Kinyon of Lockport, NY, and Ray Cyr, New Hartford, NY, won the fifth and final qualifying squad in the MoRich Over and Under Doubles Championship to advance to the third round of the finals later today. The duo totaled 1377 over three games, an average of 229,50 per game.

"We know each other from tournaments in New York, but this is the first time we ever bowled together", said Cyr. "The week will be a bowling marathon," Kinyon added. The two players will bowl all megabuck events, the Mini-Eliminator, the High Roller and the True Amateur Tournament. "I figured out that I will need $4,000 to $5,000 this week including flight, hotel and entry fees.

As the squad leader in the MoRich event, each player has already guaranteed $1,000. The tournament champions will split the $10,000 top prize.

Mere three pins behind to finish in second place were Australia's Jason Belmonte and PBA Triple Crown winner Johnny Petraglia, Manalapan, NJ, with 1374. As only fifteen Doubles participated in the final squad, the duo cashed $800 but didn't advance to the finals. Third place and final casher were Ed Roberts, Braintree, MA, and Alex Aguiar, N Dartmouth, MA, with 1348.

All teams that have advanced, except the five squad leaders earning 2 byes, will bowl one game with the top 50% advancing to the next round. Teams keep bowling as long as they continue to beat half the field. In Round 3, the five seeded teams will join the remaining teams, and continue to bowl one-game rounds until the $10,000 MoRich Doubles champion is crowned.
