LAS VEGAS - With the
United States Bowling Congress Open Championships being condensed in 2021 and featuring more squads per day than ever before, along with competition being held simultaneously in two venues, the potential for excitement and lead changes has grown considerably.
That potential became reality Friday at both the South Point Bowling Plaza and South Point Bowling Center, as the Regular Division got big scores and new leaders in every event, and the Standard Division experienced a bit of a shakeup, too.
At the South Point Bowling Plaza, Nicholas J s Pro Shop 2 of La Crosse, Wisconsin, already had attracted a crowd of fans and fellow competitors simply by reputation and track record alone, and the group didn t disappoint in 2021, posting games of 1,057, 1,131 and 1,099 for a 3,287 total.
