Bill O'Neill used the Columbia Action ball

Mike DeVaney used a Vapor Zone and Classic Zone

     

A slow start by Mike was all that Bill needed to take control of this match. Mike was quite upset at himself knowing that he got caught and didn't catch it soon enough. Bill's strategy of breaking the lane down further right and moving left placed his breakdown right in the way of Mike until he jumped over it. Bill's opponents struggled with transition every match.

This was one of the best matches I have seen in a long time. Pete and Wes bowled great. Pete had a much better match up than he had all week and the both made great shots under pressure. 6 of the 7 games were strike fests that came down to who got the breaks at the end of the match. Wes continued his hot streak by finishing the match with a 298 game.

Rick Lawrence used the Columbia Action

Dave Traber used the Ultimate Inferno and Classic Zone

     

After beating one Traber why not whoop up on the rest of the family. Dave needed to defend the family honor after brother Rick whooped up on brother Dale
