Australia's Sam Cooley averages 252 to lead PBA Cheetah Championship Qualifying Round
12/10/15
Australia's Sam Cooley (pictured left) averaged 252 for nine games to take the qualifying lead in the Professional Bowlers Association Cheetah Championship presented by PBA Challenge Mobile Game, the first qualifying leg of the Rolltech PBA World Championship, Tuesday at the National Bowling Stadium.
The Cheetah Championships is the first of five PBA Tour title events that are part of the GEICO Professional Bowlers Association World Series of Bowling VII presented by Silver Legacy.
Cooley, a 24-year-old right-hander, rolled games of 278, 203, 246, 210, 265, 280, 290, 289 and 211 for a total of 2,272 pins and a 65-pin lead over Eugene McCune (right) of Munster, Ind., who won two of his three PBA Tour titles in the 2011 and 2012 Cheetah Championships.
Cooley, who made his professional debut in the PBA Fall Classic in Las Vegas in October, first experienced bowling in birthday parties at age 4 in Mount Warrigal, New South Wales, about a 90-minute drive south of Sydney.
He then joined a 10-and-under youth league and became hooked on the sport. As a teenager, he found bowling videos of American stars Tommy Jones, Wes Malott, Pete Weber and others, and began developing his game.
"Competing on the PBA Tour is something I've been wanting to do for the past five years," Cooley said, "so I decided to take the plunge. Coming to the Fall Classic (where he finished 12th in his first PBA Tour event) gave my confidence a boost."
His performance in the Cheetah Championship "was a bit of a surprise to me, really. I didn't have to make many changes in ball choices or where I lined up on the lane, so I was able to stay pretty much in the same area for the whole round. It was a surprise and a confidence boost.
"I feel pretty good about making the match play field next week," he added. "Where I'm at today gives me a lot of confidence going into tomorrow. In games six, seven, eight and nine, it was just a matter of getting as many pins as I could for World Championship qualifying. It gives me a bit of a cushion in case things don't work out later in the week."

PBA Hall of Famer Parker Bohn III (left) got the tournament off to a fast start, bowling his record 105th career PBA 300 game in the first game. It was the first of 12 300s bowled in the high-scoring round.
Boston Red Sox outfielder Mookie Betts (right), in his debut in professional bowling, averaged a respectable 196.33 in a roller-coaster round, finishing in 212th place. For the round, he bowled games of 224, 140, 245, 180, 168, 194, 249, 213 and 154. But he wasn't overly disappointed.
"It was fun. It was tough, something to get used to," Betts said, "but I crossed with some cool guys (2013 PBA Rookie of the Year EJ Tackett of Huntington, Ind.; 2015 Rookie of the Year candidate AJ Johnson of Oswego, Ill., and PBA50 Tour veteran Ray Cobb of Highland, Calif.) and they made it easy for me. It was a little more laid back than I thought it would be because of the guys I bowled with.
"I would have liked to be at least even (average 200)," he added, "but for the first time, it was okay. Tomorrow (in the Viper Championship), I'm just going to try to be even. I have no great expectations. I made some good adjustments today in games five, six and seven, but the last game I almost dropped the ball on my foot and I fouled in the first frame, so that was a bad way to start.
"That's the learning curve. Hopefully I'll do better tomorrow."
GEICO WSOB VII competition continues Tuesday with the nine-game qualifying round in the GoBowling.com Viper Championship presented by Xtra Frame. The WSOB-record field of 246 players from 21 countries will battle for 24 positions in the best-of-five-game Viper match play elimination round that will take place on Monday, Dec. 14.
Composite 36-game qualifying totals from the nine-game Cheetah, Viper, Wednesday's Chameleon Championship and Thursday's Scorpion Championship rounds also will determine the 61 players who will advance to the Rolltech PBA World Championship cashers' round on Saturday.
All qualifying and match play rounds of the World Series of Bowling will be covered live, exclusively by PBA's online video streaming service, Xtra Frame.

2015 PBA Tour #19
Two-time Cheetah champion Eugene McCune qualifies second in high-scoring opening round featuring 12 300s; score to make the cut to the top 24 is 2112 (234.67 average)

The Cheetah Championships is the first of five PBA Tour title events that are part of the GEICO Professional Bowlers Association World Series of Bowling VII presented by Silver Legacy.
