A half ten is not a great shot.  No, you shouldn't have carried it.

Ryan is correct.  You see all kind of college players at the High Roller and other money tournaments....

Well then Ryan, I say congrats.  I was always under the asumption that once you received money for doing your sport or whatever, that your amateur status would be given up and you could no longer participate.

Anyways, how do you have the Cherry drilled?

The Masters is not a PBA event.  College player can bowl in PBA events, but not as a PBA member.

I thought the money had to be reported to USBC and then sent to some kind of fund for college.

FYI, College bowlers are able to bowl PBA events as guests only.  You are allowed two cashes per season and then you must either declare PBA membership and lose your eligibility, or you can forego the PBA card and retail your college eligibility.

I know the USBC Collegiate rulebook front and back as this will be my third year coaching a collegiate team.

The Cherry Vibe is an awesome ball. A tamed down Widow IMO. Great ball.

Can you explain how the Masters is not a PBA event???

And yes, Lambert bowled as an Amateur, but still received the money.



The Masters is first and foremost a USBC event that is open to everyone with a qualifying average.  That simply means that there will be a LOT of PBA memebers in the tournament.

Well wut i think it was, is that, mens bowling is not certified by the ncaa and so they can do pba events and win money and still be in college. I think once it becomes part of the ncaa that privilege will be gone.
