Surprises dominate second round of Dick Weber PBA Playoffs
03/11/11
In the grand tradition of basketball's March Madness, the Dick Weber PBA Playoffs staged its own series of dramatic surprises Thursday night at Woodland Bowl.
Professional Bowlers Association Hall of Famer Amleto Monacelli (pictured left) of Venezuela, who earlier in the day dominated the South Region, was eliminated from the tournament in Round Two when he finished the six-game round in 10th place. The top seven of 10 players in each Region advance to Round Three. Mike Edwards (right) of Tulsa, Okla., led the South Region in Round Two with a 1,407 pinfall total.
The Dick Weber PBA Playoffs is six-tournaments-in-one, featuring six independent regional groups bowling elimination rounds within their respective regions. The event is named in honor of the PBA Tour legend who grew up in Indianapolis.
In other Thursday night highlights, Walter Ray Williams Jr. (left) of Ocala, Fla., the PBA Tour's all-time titles leader with 47, advanced in the Central Region in second place behind Region leader Dick Allen of Columbia, S.C. Williams needs to win the PBA Playoffs, the final event of the 2010-11 Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour season, in order to extend his PBA record of winning at least one title per year to 18 years.
Also in the Central Region, Troy Stus of South Lyon, Mich., rolled a 224 game to win a one-game roll-off against PBA Hall of Famer Pete Weber (right; 197), Dick Weber's son, and Kenneth Kolberg Jr. (191) of Cleveland, Ohio, after they tied for seventh place. Weber and Kolberg were eliminated from the playoffs.
In the East Region, Rhino Page (left) of Dade City, Fla., led his group after both rounds, finishing the second round with 1,421 pins, but 13-time PBA Tour champion Patrick Allen of Wesley Chapel, Fla., finished ninth in Round Two and was eliminated after a fourth-place finish earlier in the day.
In the Midwest, Tom Hess (right) of Urbandale, Iowa, who won his first PBA Tour title in the Bayer United States Bowling Congress Masters in February, paced his Region with 1,402 pins, but the drama in Hess' group came from local favorite Ronnie Russell of Marion, Ind., who was last after two games, but rallied with a 239 final game to earn the sixth of seven spots advancing to Friday's Round Three.
Eugene McCune (left) of Munster, Ind., led the Southwest Region with 1,400 pins after barely sneaking into Round Two. Round One leader Kelly Kulick of Union, N.J., advanced by placing fifth in Round Two.
Baltimore's Danny Wiseman (right), a 12-time PBA Tour winner, paced the West/Northwest Region with 1,440 pins.
In Friday's Round Three, the PBA Tour players who finished seventh through 12th on the 2010-11 points list will be seeded into the competition (Tom Smallwood, Saginaw, Mich., in the East; Dan MacLelland, Saginaw, Mich., in the Central; Norm Duke, Clermont, Fla., in the South; Wes Malott, Pflugerville, Texas, in the Midwest; Mike DeVaney, Murrieta, Calif., in the Southwest, and Michael Haugen Jr., Carefree, Ariz., in the West/Northwest. After six games, the top five out of seven in each Region will advance to Round Four.
For Round Four, the six top seeds for the season – Sean Rash (left), Montgomery, Ill., East; Mika Koivuniemi (right), Hartland, Mich., Central; Tommy Jones, Simpsonville, S.C., South; Bill O'Neill, Southampton, Pa., Midwest; Jason Belmonte, Australia, Southwest, and Chris Barnes, Double Oak, Texas, West/Northwest – will enter the tournament for another six-game round. The top four of six per Region will advance to Round Five.
After Friday night's Round Five, three survivors in each Region will advance to two Regional Championship and one Conference Championship television shows.
The television rounds will be contested at 9 a.m., 1 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. Eastern on Sunday for delayed telecast on ESPN on Sunday, March 27, at 2:30 p.m.; Sunday, April 3, at 1 p.m. Eastern, and Sunday, April 10, at 1 p.m. Eastern, respectively.
The six Conference Championship survivors will return to Indianapolis on Sunday, April 17, for the final live telecast of the 2010-11 Lumber Liquidators PBA Tour season. ESPN will air the finals at 1 p.m. Eastern. First prize in the event is $50,000.
