        Parker was totally lost because his ball simply did not pick up. The lane played totally different and he was not prepared. Brian was the fortunate benefactor.

        Another Case where the bowlers were caught off guard. The lanes played much tighter and that was an advantage for the higher rev player Wes.

        I heard both mumbling about the lane conditions so they were shocked as well. Mika started out very confused but was able to take control late in the match after making equipment changes.

        No match at all. Patrick Allen was positively effected by the difference in the lanes while Patrick Healey Jr. was stuck with very little chance considering his ball reaction.

        Check Tommy's scores out and you can see what happens when any level bowler gets confused. He was totally lost and scrambled to find something with no luck.

        These two bowlers seemed to match up to the differences better than the rest of the field. They gave the crowd a thrilling match. Considering half of the matches were sweeps I am glad the fans got to see one close match. Usually in this type of scoring environment there are many game sevens.

        I didn't see the match but there were a couple close games. I was too busy trying to figure out what the heck happened with the lane conditons.

        This proved to be no contest. The more experienced bowler had an extreme advantage.
