Alex Collins Hit 300-814,
Dwayne Shuart 300 at Holiday
RENO, Nev. – Scott Norton of San Francisco
overtook Bobby Hall II of Landover, Md., in
the final round to win the Sands Regency
PBA Regional Players Invitational at the
National Bowling Stadium.
Norton, a 27-year-old former Team USA
member and the son of United States
Bowling Congress Hall of Famer Virginia
Norton, averaged 216 over 30 games – six
games on each on the Professional Bowlers
Association’s Cheetah, Chameleon, Viper,
Scorpion and Shark lane conditioning pat-
terns – for a total of 6,482 pins and a 65-pin
cushion over Hall, who had led the previous
three rounds.
“I grew up watching my mother bowl on
the women’s tour,” said Norton, who recently
passed his California bar exam, but may now
combine a new career as a lawyer with an
opportunity to bowl full-time on the Lumber
Liquidators PBA Tour. “This is a once-in-a-
lifetime opportunity,” he said.
As PBA Regional Players Invitational
champion, Norton earned a $7,500 prize and a berth in the 2010 PBA
Tournament of Champions in Las Vegas in addition to an exemption
to bowl on tour during the 2010-11 season. Also earning PBA Tour
exemptions for 2010-11 were Hall; Ryan Ciminelli, Cheektowaga,
N.Y.; Dave Beres, Waukesha, Wis.; Lennie Boresch Jr., Kenosha,
Wis.; Chris Warren, Grants Pass, Ore., and Jeff Zaffino, Warren, Pa.
Hall, a long-time PBA East Regional competitor, will realize his
dream of becoming a full-time member of the PBA Tour next sea-
son, but he realizes it’s a big leap from regional competition to the
national tour.
“This is bowling,” Hall said. “You’re pretty much competing
against yourself. What I’ve learned from bowling at the regional level
is I have to post my score and hope it is higher than anyone else’s. The
same principle is going to apply when I bowl on the national tour
against those guys.
“I’ve been part-time on and off the tour for the past several years,”
he added, “and I’ve found my enemy is myself. When I’ve stepped
out of my own way, things have been good for me.”
Hall is the second African-American
bowler to earn a PBA Tour exemption, fol-
lowing in the footsteps of Chicago native
Billy Oatman, who went on to earn PBA
Rookie of the Year honors during the 2006-07
season.
Ciminelli, 23, is the youngest of the newly-
exempt group and has been knocking on the
door for the past two seasons. He advanced
from Tour Qualifying Rounds to make two
television appearances during the PBA World
Series of Bowling in Detroit. “My career is
set,” Ciminelli beamed after his third-place
finish.
Beres, a 31-year-old office manager, will
make his PBA Tour debut next season. “I
finally came through after a lot of hard work
and close calls,” he said.
Boresch, a 47-year-old pro shop operator,
will test the tour again after a lengthy absence.
“I did (the Tour) 25 years ago,” he said. “This
is my second chance at it.”
Warren, a 46-year-old pro shop operator, is
a five-time PBA Tour titlist who has bowled on Tour on-and-off over
the past two decades. “It’s another opportunity,” he said.
Zaffino, the oldest qualifier at age 50, also has bowled on Tour in
years past, but is still looking for his first national title. “Now my deci-
sion is whether or not to quit my job (as a garage door installer),” he
said.
The PBA Regional Players Invitational was open only to players
who finished among the top 25 in competition points in their respec-
tive regions.

ARLINGTON, Texas – Donald
Armstead of Philadelphia, a USBC
Silver coach who is co-founder and
president of the Gehris Junior
Bowling League, has been selected
to receive the 2010 United States
Bowling Congress David Dahms
Coach of the Year Award by the
USBC Youth Committee.
Named in honor of David Dahms,
who was an instrumental leader in
the creation of what is now known as
the USBC Junior Gold program, the
award annually recognizes a USBC-
certified coach who has been actively
involved in a USBC Youth program
and has demonstrated outstanding
commitment to coaching, sportsman-
ship and knowledge of USBC Youth
rules for the last seven or more years.
“People frequently receive awards
because they have great people
around them. This is no exception,”
said Armstead, 53, a teacher in the
Philadelphia school district. “During
my travels, I have been fortunate to
meet many inspirational people who
give selflessly of their time and other
resources. Winning this award after
meeting and working with these peo-
ple leads me to feel a strange exalta-
tion – a combination of pride, elation
and humbleness for the personal
recognition.
“I would like to publicly thank my
former bowling students who took
the time and effort required to collab-
orate on writing a recommendation
for me.”
Armstead and his wife, Barbara,
who also is a USBC Silver coach,
started the Gehris League in 1995.
The league, which has 16 coaches
plus a group of parent volunteers, has
been filled for the last 13 seasons
and has a waiting list each year.
“What made coach Armstead stand
out as a great coach was not his
bowling skills but his love for peo-
ple,” Austin Tidwell, who attends
Indiana University of Pennsylvania,
wrote in his recommendation. “His
passion for helping someone made
him stand out. He was always avail-
able if a student needed somebody to
trust and to talk to.” In addition to his
work with the Gehris League,
Armstead is in his first year as pro-
gram director for the Philadelphia
Public High School Bowling League
after serving as league secretary the
past few years. There are 40 teams in
the varsity high school program and
the league is working on several pro-
grams to teach coaches and to help
kids who cannot afford bowling
equipment.
He also serves as the Southeast
Pennsylvania USBC Association
Director and is a Junior Gold tourna-
ment coordinator.
Armstead will be presented the
David Dahms Coach of the Year
Award during the USBC
Convention, April 28-May 1 in
Reno, Nev.
